Solemn Declaration

I am a high school student. Because of the high pressure in school classes, for my strong attachment to pursue good exam results and choosing not to study the Fa thoroughly, I encountered interference from the evil. Since I was unable to tolerate the stress, I wrote a "Guarantee Statement" and stated some words that were disrespectful of Dafa and Master. I felt very pained. After a period of studying the Fa and thinking it over, I realized my shortcomings. Now I have made up my mind and have determined to continue practicing Falun Dafa and overcome my weak areas. I want to eliminate the old forces' arrangements and truly practice diligently to catch up with the pace of Fa-rectification. I solemnly declare that all I had said and wrote which does not match Dafa standards has become invalid.

Solemn Declaration

After July 20, 1999, my family members told me to say words against my own will. I said them and afterwards almost gave up practicing Falun Dafa. In 2001, one of my relatives told me that now is the Fa-rectification stage and urged me to hurry up and no longer waste time. It was like awakening me from a dream and I got anxious later on. I was accused while clarifying the truth of Dafa to people. Confronted with high pressure, I was unable to tolerate it. I was afraid of having to endure the hardships or being arrested and put into jail. I therefore wrote the "Guarantee Statement." I knew it was not right, but I did not look for the fundamental reasons for doing so within myself.

For the following year I lived under surveillance from my colleagues at work and from my family members. I could not study the Fa, practice normally and I felt very depressed and scared. But deep down inside I knew it was not right and tried to compensate for my mistakes by doing a bit of Fa-rectification work. On the one hand I did not want to lose my comfortable life. On the other hand I did not wish to leave Dafa.

By the end of the year I caved in under pressure from my family and my work place. I suffered so much that I felt I had dropped into a bottomless abyss. Now I realize that I had treated Master's mercy as a joke and was not serious about cultivation. At the same time I was afraid of losing all I owned. I just wanted to gain from Dafa but not to do anything for Dafa. This is the worst mindset. Afterwards, I left home. I realized that cultivation is very serious and if you miss the opportunity, it will not come again. I have stained myself on this cultivation path. I want to doubly make it up and practice as diligently as possible. I will cherish the chance that Master gives me to make up, value the renewed opportunity for cultivation and become a qualified Dafa disciple. I am declaring that all I have said and done in the past that did not match Dafa's standards is invalid.
