I was fortunate to obtain Falun Dafa in 1995. I became free of sicknesses after I started practicing, and learned the meaning of life from studying the Fa. Since July 20^th of 1999, Jiang's group has persecuted Falun Gong rampantly. They arrested us just because we wouldn't renounce our practice. They used all sorts of indecent methods to forcefully brainwash us. I was unable to bear the torture and beating and wrote the "Guarantee Statement." For the last few years, this "Guarantee Statement" has been painful in my heart, making me unable to face Teacher and Dafa. I had damaged Dafa. Our compassionate Teacher told us in Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference, "If you trip and fall, and just keep lying there instead of getting up, then that's no good." I have to seize this opportunity to refuse the old forces' arrangements. I hereby declare: all the "Guarantee Statements" that I wrote before are null and void. I will seriously study the Fa, let go of my human notions, do the three things (study Fa, send forth righteous thoughts, clarify the truth) well, and redouble my effort to compensate for the damage I've caused to Dafa, and become a qualified practitioner.

Solemn Declaration

In March of 2003, the company security guards, factory manager and unit leader forcefully took me away to the detention center while I was working. They illegally detained me for 15 days. Then, they took me back to the factory's office. They spent a lot of time lying and forcing me to write the "Guarantee Statement." My human heart surfaced. I could not shower for half a month while I was in jail as I really wanted to. When that thought came out, I felt extremely itchy all over my body. With the urge to shower, I signed my name, succumbing to my human notion and desire. I said to them, "I want to warn you that my signature is good for only 3 days. It will be null after 3 days. I will go to Beijing to appeal because the law permits this. I will go when I feel like it, and I will practice in public when I feel like it. And I can visit anyone I wish." They said in a hurry, "Sure." Later, I felt extremely upset. How come I didn't place Dafa first at the key moment. I was bargaining with the evils for some personal gain. This was selfish. The Fa is solemn. I know that as a practitioner, I shouldn't have done that. In August of the same year, the company received orders from higher up to arrest and put the practitioners into drug rehab facilities for brainwashing. So, they illegally arrested me again. With the lesson from the previous incident, I saw through their wicked purposes from the standpoint of the Fa. Nothing could move my steadfastness toward Dafa. With Teacher's hints, I walked out of the brainwashing class in an open and dignified manner. Although, I told them that the Guarantee Statement is null and void, Dafa is serious, so, I hereby declare: all the things that I've done inside the evil environment against Dafa are null and void. I will follow Teacher's requirement, do the three things (study Fa, send forth righteous thoughts, clarify the truth) well, and practice to the end from within my real nature.
