(Clearwisdom.net) One day in March 2003, I was suddenly abducted from work by officers from the County Police Department. They searched my house and confiscated my computer, recorder, Falun Dafa books, as well as some Falun Dafa truth clarification materials, and used these things an excuse to persecute me.
In the police car, I recited our Master's article entitled, "Realms" (Essentials For Further Advancement),
"A benevolent person always has a heart of compassion. With no discontentment or hatred, he takes hardship as joy."
(Note: this is only one sentence from the article)
I then clarified the truth to the policemen. Three of them all smiled when they heard me. Maybe my words affected them.
In the County Police Department, the police interrogated me. They asked, "Will you still practice (Falun Gong)? If you answer yes, we'll detain you. If you say no, we'll release you." My reply contained justice and assurance, "Yes, I will practice! Falun Dafa saved my life. I had a serious heart disease and it was Falun Dafa that saved me and gave me new life. Giving up Falun Dafa equals giving up my life. I can't give up." They were very irritated and sent me to the detention center that day.
As soon as I arrived in the detention center I started a hunger strike. The prisoners in my prison cell all knew that Falun Gong is good and that Falun Gong practitioners are good. So, one after another they gave me ideas. For example, they asked me to pretend to be sick in order to be released on medical parole. I thought that maybe this was a merciful hint from Master. I then thought that I must not be detained and this is not a place where I should stay because I still have many things to do.
People are waiting for me to save them. I started to look within myself and realized I had not sufficiently improved. It was because of my omissions that I was being detained and so I thought I must nevertheless use my righteous thoughts to quickly escape. I was also thinking that I can't depend on ordinary people, I am a Fa-rectification period Falun Dafa disciple so Master will help me be freed. When thinking about this, my legs suddenly became very painful. And then, the symptoms of my heart disease emerged. Seeing how seriously the disease was affecting me, all nine prisoners surrounded me.
Some of them helped by massaging my chest and back and some helped by massaging my legs. They were all very caring and considerate of my well being. I was deeply appreciative. During mealtime, they asked for rice conjee for me, and advised me to eat. I said, "I can't eat. I didn't commit a crime. It was wrong that they arrested me and I must hunger strike to protest it." At the same time, I clarified the truth to them, "Falun Dafa is for the salvation of human beings. It is the greatest heavenly law." I also told them my experiences of how I have benefited from Dafa, how I am morally upright, and if it were not for Falun Dafa saving me, I would have departed this world already. After listening to me the prisoners all nodded their heads.
On the fourth day, my ill state intensified, becoming extremely abnormal. My hands and feet were cold and my limbs were numb. My heart had almost stopped beating. My face looked pale and my lips were black, making me look very frightening. The head of our prison cell immediately reported my situation to the guards. The doctor of the jail came at once to see me.
The cruel doctor used a key to press my philtrum so hard that it broke my flesh at once and began to bleed. Some prisoners were so scared that they cried. They exclaimed how the doctor was so cruel. However, I wasn't scared and felt no pain. I had a feeling that Master was the one who bore the pain. I kept on sending forth righteous thoughts, and reciting "Lunyu."
The police interrogated me again. No matter what they asked, I answered them by saying that I didn't know. They asked me to write a pledge, but I refused. The leaders of my work unit came and persuaded me to write the pledge. I told them, "All of you know my situation. I had a serious heart disease before and if I hadn't practiced Falun Dafa I would have died already. In the last couple of years I've obtained a healthy heart, healthy body, and pleasant demeanor. I have lived very happily and have Falun Dafa to thank for saving my life. I can't give up Falun Dafa!"
My husband also came to persuade me to write the pledge. I told him without more ado, "I will not."
Master said that
"by having your heart unaffected you will be able to handle all situations." ("Eliminate Your Last Attachment(s)," Essentials for Further Advancement II).
Master also said,
"Our Law Wheel protects you if you're a true cultivator. My roots are all deeply planted in the universe, and if someone could affect you, he could affect me, and to put it directly, he'd be able to affect the universe." (Zhuan Falun).
I thought, I am a disciple of Li Hongzhi and can conquer evil beings and suffocate the evil as long as I believe in Dafa, believe in Master, and regard the Fa as teacher. I shall leave no loophole for the evil to take advantage of.
On the fifth day, the leaders of my work unit came to bail me out on medical parole. So, under the protection of Master, I was able to quickly get out of the detention center with righteous thoughts. After I came home, my body quickly recovered. The whole state of my disease during detention was a conjured illusion. It was the great power of the Fa, which displayed itself on my body.
I have rejoined the current of the great Fa-rectification again.
