Solemn Declarations from Dafa Practitioners

Solemn Declaration

I started to practice Falun Dafa back in January 1999. After the Chinese communist regime began to suppress Falun Dafa, I went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa on July 22 that same year. As soon as I got off the train, however, the police officers arrested me, illegally, and confiscated all the Falun Dafa books I had in my backpack. I was taken back to my local police station, forced to sign a "pledge not to practice Falun Gong" and to turn in the Falun Gong audio tapes and videotapes to the local neighborhood committee.

In October 1999, I was on a business trip with my family members in a neighboring town when an officer interrogated me on my practice of Falun Gong. Despite my answer that was inconsistent with the principle of Falun Dafa, they arrested me and illegally imprisoned me for five months. Once again, I was forced to write the statement of repentance to not appeal for or practice Falun Gong, and to put my signature on the police form. After this incident, Teacher hinted to me again and again.

On the very night I wrote the statement of repentance, I dreamed of a herd of foxes and weasels stabbing my throat with numerous knives. The next morning, my throat was so stuffed that I couldn't breathe. Such a state lasted for an extended period of time until I finally awoke to the truth. Later, with various excuses, the authorities at the detention center extended my imprisonment for two more months. After I was released, I still did not take myself as a practitioner. Instead I created negative images for Falun Dafa.

Today I'd like to return to the path of cultivation practice, take the path that Teacher has arranged for me, and completely negate the old forces' arrangements. I hereby solemnly declare null and void everything I said, did and wrote before that did not conform to Dafa. I will redouble my efforts, make up for the loss I brought to Dafa, and do the three things well.

Solemn Declaration

Exerting pressure on the government of Iran, the regime of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) last year demanded that the Iranian government make trouble for Falun Gong practitioners. Later a police officer told me that I could practice Falun Gong at home. If I joined any public activities of Falun Gong, I must get the permission from the government, he said. Besides, I was not allowed to contact any overseas practitioners. They tricked me to sign a document with these statements. Back then I had trouble understanding if Falun Dafa practice and other Dafa activities in the Fa-rectification period should get the approval from the government. I did not realize that such demands from the Iranian government actually came from behind-the-scenes control of the CCP. I really should not have signed any document that had the evils' intent.

I hereby solemnly declare null and void everything I said and did before and every document I signed that did not conform to Dafa. I solemnly declare that I am a disciple of Master Li Hongzhi, that I must completely negate the old forces' arrangements, and that I will do the three things well.
