When talking about the principle of retribution for evil deeds, elderly or kind-hearted people believe in its existence, but some younger or unsympathetic people will take exception. However, the law that good will be rewarded with good and evil with evil is an objective truth. Retribution and rewards determine the basis of predestined relationships for all social beings. Sometimes you can see this law when evil actions are punished. They serve as warnings to human beings.

Jiang Zemin and the Luo Gan clique launched the crackdown on Falun Gong in order to divert people's dissatisfaction with their own corruption and as a way to realize their dirty political objectives.

Yang Mingsong, a 39-year-old man, is the political instructor of the first team of the Dongfeng Labor Camp in Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province. Previously, he was a young and able leader of the team. However, since the beginning of Jiang's suppression of Falun Gong, he blindly followed the new regime and became an accomplice in the criminal activities persecuting Falun Gong practitioners.

Obsessed by the desire for political gain, Yang followed Jiang and Luo in persecuting Dafa and its practitioners, ignoring the laws of the nation and human conscience. In March or April 2001, a practitioner named Zhu Honglin (a worker in the seventh factory of Oil Administration Bureau) was arrested for telling the truth about Dafa and refusing to renounce his belief. He was sent to Yang's team in the labor camp. When they interrogated Zhu, he said: "Falun Dafa is good." Yang became extremely angry and sealed Zhu's mouth with adhesive tape. He then mocked him, saying, "How tough your mouth is -- keep speaking this way!" Seeing that Zhu still refused to yield, Yang handcuffed him to the bedpost and deprived him of sleep for the whole night. Using similar methods, Yang committed many crimes in the persecution of Dafa practitioners.

Instead of being ashamed, he took pride in what he did and claimed, "Who can deal with me, even though I am persecuting you Falun Gong practitioners?" However, yesterday (June 20) I received a phone call from his colleague who informed me that Yang had been sent to a cancer hospital in Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province. I asked, "What disease does he have?" "Cancer of the liver," was the answer "How serious?" --- "He needs an emergency operation." "Is it dangerous?" --- "He is in critical condition."

The news that Yang now suffered from cancer spread throughout the first team, and everyone was talking about it. Some of them wondered: "How could this man suddenly have such a fatal disease?" Others said: "He must have committed some bad deeds." Actually, all practitioners and some kind people understood that it was retribution.

However, I am afraid that there are still some people who do not understand this principle, and will not during this lifetime. It is very sad and pitiful.

Our teacher instructed us in the article Fa-Rectification and Cultivation: "... because when the evil uses people, these people themselves usually aren't aware of it (although those people who are used are usually either people whose thoughts are just bad or people who have bad thoughts arising)." According to Teacher's requirements, in cultivation we practitioners should treat all sentient beings with benevolence. Thus, we clarify the truth, expose the lies and awaken their conscience and kindness. By so doing, we save sentient beings from being eliminated in the universe's future. However, the conscience of some people has died completely. They refuse to be enlightened and engage in all possible evil deeds. They choose the path leading to eternal death.

I hope that the blood and lives of Dafa practitioner will evoke everyone's conscience.
