Oppose the Arrangement Of the Evil Forces; Steadfast Righteous Thoughts Helped Me to Walk Out of the Detention Center (Part I)

Nov. 3, 2001

(Clearwisdom.net) On October 11, 2001 around 1:40 p.m. I was at home. I heard the door being opened. Immediately thereafter a few fierce looking people rushed in. My mother could not stop them. At that moment I was shocked and said, "Do you have any identification documents?" Two amongst them presented their police identification passes. I was very clear-headed and thought, "I definitely cannot let the evil take any advantage" and calmed down. One of them asked, "Are you so-and-so?" I said, "Yes." At this moment, Liu XX who was in charge of arresting Falun Gong practitioners from the political and security section of the district police department walked into the house and said to me coldly, "We meet again." I smiled and said, "You are too concerned about me."

He had looked for me many times in the past, because I had gone to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong . In November 2000 he even ransacked my house once. At this moment, a plain-clothes police officer removed a piece of paper from his shirt pocket wanted me to sign it. When I saw it was actually a subpoena, a summons, I refused. Another plain-clothes policeman said viciously, "You can refuse to sign, but you must go with us." I thought in my heart, "I must not co-operate with them, because I'm carrying a booklet with the telephone numbers of some of my fellow practitioners on me. I cannot implicate others and cause any damage to the truth-clarifying work for Dafa." They wanted to take away my parents, too. My parents firmly refused to co-operate with them. Many plain-clothes police that were present at this moment concentrated their attention on my parents. Using this chance, I tore up the telephone book and threw it away.

The plain-clothes police personnel forced us to get into the car. I thought in my heart, "My fellow practitioners are safe now. I must walk out of here righteously." Because I have an impatient personality, I warned myself, "Do not be rash when faced with anything. Be rational! Use the Fa to judge any difficulties. Do not let the evil take advantage of any loopholes."

When I arrived at the police station, a security guard watched over me. After a while, Liu XX from the political and security section of the district police department came in. With false kindness and a feigned caring manner he said, "We brought you here today because we have gotten hold of certain evidence. You are still so young, still have a long way to go, think of yourself..." I laughed and said, "I am very thankful for your words. It shows that you still have kind thoughts. Could I offer you some sincere advice?" Liu said, "Yes." I said, "You should stop doing this job. It brings no benefit for your future. After such a long time, you probably have got an understanding of Falun Gong... " Liu said, "Then what other job can I do? I have a wife and children. They need to live and be taken care of." I said, "You can resign from this political and security section and transfer to another division." Liu said, "Then what can I do? It is not up to me to make the decision about this assignment." I said, "By helping the evil to do bad deeds you will accomplish nothing anyway. You have experienced the Cultural Revolution. How many of those who tortured people during that period had a good ending? Whether it is on your own initiative or instigated by others..." Liu said, "Don't go against what is decided by the government. If you secretly practice at home, no one will oppose it. But do not make materials promoting Falun Gong." I said, "Falun Gong changed me. It made me a person with higher morals. It is the basic right and duty of every citizen to appeal, a right granted by the Constitution. Just for going to Beijing to speak a word of justice, practitioners have been detained for such a long time. Thousands of practitioners who benefited from Falun Gong were pushed on the opposite side of the government..."

Liu changed the topic and said, "Confess the things that you have done." I laughed and said, "I did not do anything wrong! What is there to confess? I am doing the most righteous thing in the whole universe. Am I supposed to betray my integrity? Am I supposed to betray my conscience? This absolutely cannot be done." Liu said, "Someone has told us about you; said how many materials you have given him." I said, "Our Teacher taught us to strictly maintain our xinxing (mind-nature), our morals. Others may be unkind to us, but we must not be unkind to others; others can treat us as enemies but we cannot do the same..." After these few rounds of exchanges, my gentle yet firm words did not give him any loopholes to take advantage of. He was silent for a while then walked out. The evil also brought my parents here for interrogation. But it was impossible for the interrogators to get any information because my parents knew nothing about what I did.

After a while, a plain-clothes policeman came in to handcuff me to the metal chair. I thought in my mind, Teacher said in "Dafa is Indestructible," "A Dafa disciple completely opposes everything arranged by the evil old forces. Clarify the truth thoroughly, eliminate the evil with righteous thoughts, save all beings, and safeguard the Fa with determination, because you are a part of Dafa - indestructible; rectify all that is not righteous."

Two policemen came in and took me to the police chief's office. They took away my money, keys and the wallet in my pocket. At that moment I understood that the tribulation had arrived. I quietly recited Teacher's Fa rectifying verse, to eliminate all the evil elements behind them. Another policeman rushed in and threw the Dafa truth clarifying materials onto the table. Two different policemen handcuffed both my hands to the armrests of the metal chair, hit me with their fists and kicked me. One grabbed my hair and yanked it backwards to torture me violently. I looked at the evil people righteously while maintaining righteous thoughts all the time, and said, "You people who are persecuting Dafa practitioners will receive retribution." Another policeman shouted while holding an electric baton. He shocked my hand and even asked me to hold the baton. I did not cooperate with them and swung my hands away from the electric baton. I shouted loudly, "Falun Dafa is good." I thought in my heart, "No matter what the situation, do not cooperate with the evils' demands, their orders or what they instigate..." ("Dafa Disciples' Righteous Thoughts are Powerful"). Yet another policeman closed the windows and doors tightly. Actually, the evil is most afraid of being exposed.

One policeman shouted, "You listen up! My name is Li Jian. I am not afraid of retribution. I am going to see if you will obey today." I used the righteous thoughts to face the evil people directly, warning them, "Dafa practitioners have nothing to be afraid of. Such threats of yours are useless against practitioners. I know that you are capable of doing anything. I have already let go of my concern for life and death." The evil policemen did not expect me to be so awe-inspiring in upholding justice, fearless and steadfast in refusing to yield to the evil. They were stunned. Teacher said that in front of cultivators, ordinary people are very weak. One of the evil policemen said, "These are your things. Just because of these [most probably referring to the Dafa truth clarifying materials that he had thrown onto the table earlier], we can put you in jail for four or five years and put handcuffs and shackles on you. It is very dark in there, with no daylight coming in. I am not 'ruling' you. You think it over by yourself what you have done, and how much [materials] you have given to others. " I laughed and said, "I am helping our Teacher to offer salvation to you all. What is shown on television is all fabricated. I am clarifying the truth to the world..." One policeman said, "Whatever the government tells us to do, we will just follow orders. Don't tell me these things! I don't believe any of it!" I sternly warned the evil police, "As a human being, don't you have any sense of right and wrong? What is the difference between good and bad?" One of them said, "The government pays me. What it tells me to do, I will do."

By this time, it was already way past midnight and was nearing early morning. I laughed, and from beginning to end, I faced the evil people directly. The evil thugs could not do anything to me. I knew that the evil elements that were manipulating behind the scenes had been destroyed. One officer said, "I will give you 30 more minutes. You think carefully whether or not you want to confess about the materials. You decide." I laughed and said, "I have nothing to say." The evil thugs had to give up and brought me back to the original room. They used two handcuffs to handcuff me to the central heating pipe. A security guard watched over me.
