I Always Treat Myself as a "Fa-Rectification Disciple"
By a Falun Dafa practitioner from Henan Province, China
(Clearwisdom.net) I had high blood pressure as well as heart and
breathing problems for 11 years before I started practicing Falun Dafa. At one
point, it was so serious that I was bedridden and unable to care for myself for
15 straight days. On December 28, 1998, I began to learn Falun Dafa and practice
the exercises. I have been a healthy person ever since. On July 20, 1999, the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners began. Since my
house was a group practice site, the Public Security Department and the local
Public Security Station dispatched people to ransack my house in December of
that year. They took away all of my Falun Dafa related books and materials. I
happened to be out of town at the time, but from then on, I was at the top of
the evildoers' "wanted list." On July10, 2000, I went to Beijing to validate Dafa. I was arrested and sent
to the Public Security Station at Tiananmen Square. Later I was transferred to a
suburban prison. Wherever I went, I would clarify the truth to the people. On
October 6, 2000, I took a banner bearing the Chinese characters for "Zhen,
Shan, Ren" (Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance) and went to Beijing
again to validate Dafa. I returned home without any trouble. When the Public
Security Department and the Public Security Station learned of my activities,
they planned to arrest me, but failed. When I am validating Dafa and clarifying the truth, I always treat myself as
a "Fa-rectification disciple." On July 30, 2003, when Security Staff
from the National Security Branch of the Public Security Department came to
search my residence, they found the Minghui Weekly as well as other
truth-clarification documents. As a result, they sent me to a detention center.
In the detention center, I clarified the truth about Falun Dafa to other inmates
and staff members, and also started a four-day hunger strike to show my
resistance. With the power of Falun Dafa, Teacher's protection and also my
family's resistance to the evil forces, I came out of the detention center free
and clear in seven days. When they asked me to write the "guarantee
statement," I said, "Our Teacher wants us to become good people, ever
self-improving people. I am following a righteous path, what do you want me to
write about?" Later on, they said to me, "All right, just forget about
the statement. But, from now on, you can only do the exercises in your own home
and don't participate in Falun Dafa conventions." I said, "You can
rest assured, whatever I do will be good deeds, I will never do anything that is
not virtuous!" After returning home, I realized that the public security
department had extorted 2000 yuan from my family that they said was
a "security deposit." I have to follow a righteous path during my cultivation so that I will not
betray our Teacher's merciful care. I should always regard myself as a "Fa-rectification
disciple" while I am accomplishing my historical missions and fulfilling my
pre-historical vows. At present, I try to do the "three things"
diligently. As far as Fa-study and practicing the exercises is concerned, I have
been doing the exercises everyday as well as reading one to three lectures. I
have not missed practicing the exercises or studying the Fa for a single day in
the past six years. As of now, I have already read through Zhuan Falun
more than three hundred times. Every day, I treat my Fa-study as a serious issue
with the highest priority. As far as sending forth righteous thoughts is
concerned, I do it four times a day. Sundays, I also do the send forth righteous
thoughts at 5:00, 6:00 and 7:00 A.M. respectively. In addition I send forth
righteous thoughts at 9:00 P.M. for our local area, and my wife and I have
decided to do them once more each day at 5:00 A.M. In all, I do them at least
six times every day, and I have not missed a single day. As far as
truth-clarification and saving people is concerned, I have been trying to pass
out flyers, CDs and other such truth-clarification materials to people. In the
urgency of this special period of time, I am trying to save as many people as
possible. Many people around me have personally witnessed the physical changes
that happened to me after starting my practice of Falun Gong, so it is
relatively easy for them to accept me when I approach them to talk about the
truth of Falun Dafa. They all come to understand the true nature of Falun Dafa
and know that "Falun Dafa is good," and that "Zhen, Shan, Ren"
can raise the moral standards of the people in this world. People I clarify the
truth to also come to realize the extent of the persecution on Falun Dafa and
its practitioners. In his lecture "Teaching the Fa at the 2004 International Fa Conference
in New York (Questions & Answers Section, Part II)," Teacher says, "A being will be whatever is contained in his head, and both for a
being who is to be eliminated and one who is to have things end well for him,
it will be over instantly in one pass." In the current short and urgent period of time, we really should do our best
to clarify the truth to the public so that every single savable sentient being
will have the chance to learn about the Dafa and clear away the poison generated
by all the evil and slanderous propaganda.
