(Clearwisdom.net) The son of a Falun Dafa practitioner is a college student who learned the truth of Falun Dafa from his parents.
Under orders from the 610 Office, his college pressures students to write articles that slander Falun Dafa. This young man firmly expressed to his teacher that he would not write these kinds of articles. When the teacher asked him why he would not write them, he said, "Falun Gong poses no harm to me, why I should slander it?" The teacher replied, "But this is a requirement from the top, and I have no right to give you permission not to do it." The teacher then reported this incident to the college administration office. The college administration office wanted to see him the next day. Actually, they wanted to pressure him.
After returning home, the student told his mother, a Falun Dafa practitioner, about what happened. His mother told him, "You did the right thing. Tomorrow, when they come looking for you, don't give in to their pressure. I will go see them."
The next day, people from the administration office called him out of class. His classmates were all worried for him. Meanwhile, his mother hurried to the school, sending righteous thoughts along the way. She handled the case very well, without exposing her identity as a Falun Dafa practitioner. She explained to the teacher why her child did not want to slander Falun Dafa. She said, "I told him not to write this. Every political movement in the past has been proven wrong, but people do not learn the lessons from them afterwards. Instead, they make the same mistakes again once a new political movement is launched. So I told my child not to participate in any political slandering, because you don't understand the truth. If you blindly follow along, you will easily do the wrong thing. Wouldn't you be doing a bad thing? Besides, I know some Falun Gong practitioners in our village. Everyone knows that they are kindhearted people. They do not fight back when hit, and do not curse back when cursed. They all have high moral standards. How can I allow my child to slander these good people? Everyone knows that good deeds are rewarded with good, and evil deeds meet with due retribution. How can I tell my child to do these kinds of things?" The teacher in charge had nothing to say, and could only shirk responsibility. He said, "I cannot make the decision, you need to talk to the administration office."
This Falun Dafa practitioner went to the administration office, sending righteous thoughts along the way to eliminate the evil in other dimensions. She explained the reasons and principles to the people of the administration office. They saw that what she said was very reasonable, and could not dispute what she said. But they irresponsibly told her, "Anyway, it is all arranged by the 610 Office. If it is wrong, we will all be wrong together. Who cares?" The Falun Dafa practitioner replied, "Since you don't know whether it's right or wrong, even more so, should you not slander it blindly. So I cannot allow my son to blindly do this foolish thing. Do you agree?" The people from the college administration office saw that the Falun Dafa practitioner's attitude was very firm. Thus the administrator said, "If he does not want to write it, then he doesn't have to write it. Let him go back to class."
When the Dafa disciple's son returned to the classroom with a smile, he could not imagine that all his classmates would be applauding him. The whole class gave him a big round of applause, just like welcoming a hero from a battlefield.
