Persistently Resisting Persecution, A Dafa Practitioner Nobly Regains Her Freedom

(Clearwisdom.net) In June of this year, I was seized by a police officer, who had waited in ambush, and sent to a brainwashing center. I resisted it, exposed the evil and sent forth righteous thoughts. The police pulled my hair, kicked my legs and even restrained my arms, attempting to stop me from sending forth righteous thoughts. I started clarifying the truth to the police instead. When it was time to eat I said loudly, "I am a good person and I will not eat in this place. I will protest by holding a hunger strike!" The officers from the "610 Office" were very frightened when they heard this and sent me to a detention center that very same day.

In "Dafa Disciples' Righteous Thoughts are Powerful," Teacher said, "No matter what the situation, do not cooperate with the evil's demands, orders, or what it instigates. If everyone does this, the environment won't be this way." Because I resisted the evil persecution at all times, even when they slapped my face and forced me to sit on an iron chair, they could not make me give in. Thus a guard had the collaborators [former practitioners who enlightened on the evil path by accepting the brainwashing] try to persuade me to eat. I said to a collaborator who attempted to convince me, "I will do things according to Teacher's Dafa. Everything I do is what I enlightened to from Dafa. It is also the representation of the Fa that I enlightened to. Do not keep trying to influence Dafa disciples." The guard said, "Don't Falun Dafa practitioners also talk about Compassion? You should consider things from my situation. If you go on a hunger strike, the supervisor will deduct points from me." I said, "You should distinguish who took points from you! Who implicated you into this case? I am a good person by following the principles of 'Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance.' I am the one who is being persecuted! Evil Jiang's regime forces you to persecute me and then takes points from you if you do not fulfill their goal. It is Jiang's regime that harms us both. You also know that Dafa disciples are kindhearted. Why do they send numerous Dafa disciples here and why do you still help the evil ones to persecute Dafa disciples? Aren't you bullying good people? If I follow what you say, then I would be indulging the evil for persecuting goodness. That is definitely out of the question!" After hearing what I said, she did not say a word and could not even look me in the eyes.

Finally they forcibly sent me to the labor camp. I sent forth righteous thoughts all the way there and rejected the evil old forces' arrangement of persecuting Dafa and me. I did not even have the slightest notion about forced labor, because Teacher has arranged my cultivation path. After a physical examination in the labor camp, the camp would not take me. The police even attempted to find someone who would do them a favor to accept me, but without success. They had to send me home. On the way back they didn't give it up and tried to entice me with a fruit to get me to eat, but I only smiled and said nothing. They finally ran out of ideas and sent me home.

Through this incident I found my deficiencies and deeply hidden attachments, but those omissions could not be taken advantage of by the evil old forces as excuses to persecute me. Only by doing things according to Teacher's Dafa and accomplishing the three things [study the Fa; clarify the truth; send forth righteous thoughts] during the Fa-rectification period can we keep up with the Fa-rectification progress, truly reach Consummation and follow Teacher home.
