I was illegally sent to a forced labor camp on March 1, 2002. During the detention, because I hadn't been steadfast in my Fa study, I didn't understand the Fa from the standpoint of the Fa. Therefore, my attachments were too strong and the evil forces took advantage of this omission. The evil influenced me to enlighten along an evil path. They brainwashed me, and made me write the "three statements" [documents renouncing Falun Dafa and promising not to practice again]. I even helped the evils to brainwash fellow practitioners.

After I left the labor camp, the evil forces were remained around me. Because I was still afraid, I was lost amidst the battle of good and evil. I didn't know what was the right thing to do. I failed again and again with opportunities that Teacher gave me to step back onto the righteous path. I thought that I was utterly finished, that I had fallen. I felt that I had lost the right to practice cultivation. Recently however, I've found fellow practitioners who have written solemn declarations to exchange our understandings. I realized that I've committed terrible deeds, and I regret terribly what I have done. I asked myself, could I still be Teacher's disciple? Do I still have the chance to practice? Not even giving my own life could compensate for the evil deeds that I've committed. My deeds have left a serious stain on my cultivation path. And it's also the most shameful one.

Fellow practitioners understood me well. They showed me Teacher's article, Touring North America to Teach the Fa. Teacher said, "As for those who've gone to the opposite side during this persecution or even done awful things, let me tell you that Master still doesn't want to abandon them." My heart was filled with energy when I read this. I couldn't hold back my tears; the compassionate Teacher wouldn't want to abandon any of the practitioners, and still gives us opportunities to come back. I can't miss this one final chance. Therefore I hereby solemnly declare that all those words that I've written or spoken, and everything wrong I've done in the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp, are all null and void. I'll redouble my effort to clarify the truth and compensate for my mistakes.

On July 20, 1999, the evil started persecuting Falun Gong. I went with fellow practitioners to appeal at City Hall and the Appeals Office. But because my Fa study wasn't deep enough and I had a lot of attachments, when my school sent people to take us back, I didn't treat the incident with a righteous mind, and I wrote the so-called "guarantee letter" [promising to stop practicing Falun Gong].

After that, the situation worsened. I didn't catch up with Fa study, and my xinxing [mind-heart nature, moral nature] was degrading. One time I had to go to Beijing to find a job, and I needed to stay in a hotel. After I registered my citizen ID number, the clerks wanted me to sign my name under a page that said something along the lines of, "the hotel won't be responsible for stolen property." I saw that the last sentence had Teacher's name on it. I dared not read it, but I knew that it was blasphemy towards Teacher. I pondered the situation a bit, but because my ID number had been registered I decided to sign it. I was lying to myself, "I didn't write it. I just agreed that the hotel won't be responsible for stolen property." After that, every time I thought about it I felt more ashamed. I know that I'm unworthy of Teacher's compassionate heart, which brings salvation to human beings. I committed deeds that practitioners should not commit, and I defamed Dafa.

But I didn't give up. I caught up with Fa study. With the help of fellow practitioners I came back to the path of Fa-rectification. I went to Beijing to appeal in June 2000, and I walked out of a brainwashing class and detention center using my righteous mind. I've read fellow practitioners' solemn declarations on Minghui.org. I thought that since I've refuted my past mistakes with my actions, I do not need to write a declaration. But I also remember Teacher's words, "When they return to their senses, they will immediately start doing again what a Dafa student should do during this time, and, in the meantime, will declare as null and void everything that they said and wrote when they were not in their right minds due to intense persecution, and will declare that they are determined in cultivation," Coercion Cannot Change People's Hearts. I have enlightened to the fact that a solemn declaration isn't just a routine formality. It's part of a Dafa practitioner's refusal to acknowledge the arrangements of the old forces. Therefore I write this solemn declaration: To compensate for my past mistakes, I hereby utterly deny the old force's arrangements. I will steadfastly walk my Fa-rectification path, bring salvation to sentient beings and complete my duty as a practitioner.

I am 51 years old. I attained Dafa at the end of 1998. Before, I had various kinds of sickness, including heart disease. These illnesses disappeared after I started practicing Falun Gong.

In June 2000, I went to Beijing to appeal with three fellow practitioners. We were held in detention for half a month. On December 29, 2000, I went to Beijing again. The evils arrested me when I was in Zhengzhou. They took me back to Chengdu, and illegally sent me to a forced labor camp for one year. I arrived at the labor camp on April 29, 2001. After I was brainwashed, I was very regretful. In my dreams I was crying all the time. During a physical examination at the labor camp, my blood pressure was found to be 240, and my heart disease returned.

On September 29, 2001, my son took me back home. I started practicing again. Because of my mentality of fear, I dared not post my solemn declaration online. Later I wrote my solemn declaration, and I sent it to the labor camp, too. Therefore the evil forces constantly persecuted me. The "610" Office [an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems] called me a couple of times, and said that they'll make the local police station arrest me and send me to a brainwashing center. It was Teacher who was protecting me, so the evil never took me away. I hereby declare that all that I've written on the "statement of regret," or any evil things that I've said, are null and void. I will redouble my effort to compensate for the wrongs that I've committed against Dafa.

I am a student. When I was put into a brainwashing center, I wrote the "letter of separation and exposure" under extreme pressure. I've committed the worst deed of my life. Although I was being deceived by the evil, my giving in was also because of my own problems: I wasn't steadfast enough, and hadn't studied the Fa deeply enough. I had the mindset and attachments of an ordinary person. Therefore I hereby declare: all those "letters of separation" that I've written since May of 2001 are null and void. I will redouble my effort to compensate for the damage that I've bought to Dafa, and I will catch up with the Fa-rectification process.
