(Clearwisdom.net) I am a retired cadre from mainland China. I have many colleagues who practice Falun Gong. Since the persecution of Falun Gong began, they have clarified the truth to me, but I could not understand when I first heard it, and I didn't believe them.
One day in March of 2004, I went to visit a friend and I met a Falun Gong practitioner in jail. While in detention, he still said "Falun Dafa is good!" He also exposed the brutal persecution to him in the jail. The prison guards disavowed the persecution at once. Somebody told me that he was Mr. Li Zhigang, a master's student from the Changsha National Defense Science University. He was never given enough food to eat, was forced to do hard physical work all day, and was detained in a small room at night without a bed. He had to sleep on the concrete ground. If it was too cold for him to get to sleep, he had to jump around in the room to keep himself warm...
I was shocked that he was so firm in his belief in Dafa even under the cruel persecution. It was absolutely not the same as what is broadcast on TV. Then what's the true story' I borrowed a copy of Zhuan Falun and finished it without stopping. I considered it a really good book! No wonder there are such good disciples. But Jiang's regime used the entire country's resources to arrest Dafa practitioners and burn Dafa books in this crazy persecution of Falun Gong, using rumor-mongering to fool the people. It would not be allowed if the country were ruled by law and justice!
I have completely understood the true situation of Falun Gong after having read a great deal about it. Now I also want to clarify the truth to the people.
