Canadian Lawyer Suing Jiang Passes Message to Practitioners in New York City
By A Canadian practitioner
(Clearwisdom.net) A Toronto lawyer is helping practitioners to launch a
legal case against Jiang Zemin and his followers on a pro bono basis. I told her
that many practitioners are in New York City to clarify the truth about Falun
Gong and the persecution. She asked me to pass on the following message to those
practitioners in New York City and elsewhere. The original letter: You thank me and I appreciate it, because I am trying to do something
positive about a horrid situation. The real thanks are due to you and all the practitioners who go to such
lengths to find justice. I admire and respect all of you and your unbelievable courage in the face of
such evil acts, and after having read and partly rewritten (for the purposes of
the statement of claim) all the stories of what people went through and continue
to endure, I have found myself captured again by a simple truth which you seem
to live: Compassion, tolerance, honesty and love are truly the greatest gifts we can
have and we can share. In practicing law in a general context of thwarted justice and, more important, thwarted joy and peace, which seems to be the mainstream of the
world, I am constantly uplifted and pushed to carry on by people such as
yourself and the many who have dared to launch this lawsuit -- not for personal
gain, but for some semblance of that which is so rare to most of us: serenity
for ourselves and those we love. For serenity only comes in doing the next right
thing. Thank you all for continuing to do what you do. I truly believe in who you
are and what you are doing. All the best in New York. |
