1) Police at the Jiamusi Forced Labor Camp brutally force Falun Gong practitioners to write letters denouncing Falun Gong. Falun Gong practitioner Cheng Hanbo was hung up with both of her hands cuffed and feet barely touching the ground. She was then beaten and shocked with an electric baton. The police even took her pants off. Falun Gong practitioner Cong Minhua was hung with her hands handcuffed behind her back for several hours. She could neither sit nor lie down. Her hands were numb. The police also forced Falun Gong practitioners to sit on tiny benches, brutally beat them, and forced them to watch videos that slander Falun Gong.

In the past several years I saw a lot of the programs about Falun Gong on TV. I thought they were all true. Now I have realized that Falun Gong is indeed good. My grandmother and aunts all practice. Since they stared practicing they have become energetic and have recovered from illness.

I visit my grandmother frequently as I am on summer vacation. Sometimes she asks me to teach her the words she does not know in the book Zhuan Falun. Sometimes I read several paragraphs for her. Now I have also begun to practice Falun Dafa. I think that Falun Gong is really good. I read from the beginning to the end. Falun Gong is very different from what it is told on TV, radio, and in the newspaper.

I am a worker in a factory in northern China. In 1994 I got erythema. My husband took me for treatment at the major hospitals in the city, but it was in vain. It got more and more serious each day. Finally I could not even get out of bed.

In February 1996, Mrs. Yan on the second floor brought me the tapes of a Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference. After listening to the tapes, I borrowed the book Zhuan Falun from my neighbor Mrs. Mao and decided to start cultivating. On April 1, 1997, I was able to get on a bike and go to work. Several years ago, after my coworkers came to see me, they thought that I was the third one on the "death list". Now my boss and coworkers are very shocked. They all asked me: "What allowed you to come back from death?" I told them with excitement that it was Master Li and Falun Dafa.

To a god of righteousness, or even a practitioner in cultivation, if there are no loopholes of lust, sentiment, and desire, there will be no demonic thoughts in his or her fields. Based on this standard you can see that the issue of lust is very prevalent. Some have more of it, some have less. No matter whether you have the demonic thoughts yourself, or you make others have demonic thoughts, both result from a lack of cultivation on the issue of lust. Eliminate lust and desire with righteous thoughts. If you can do what Master says, it won't be that difficult. In other words, it is not whether you can do it or not. It is whether you want to do it or not.

On September 12, 2003 Radio Free Asia reported Falun Gong practitioners exposing the Chinese regime's persecution against Falun Gong in an expo in California. Currently the 150^th Exhibition of California is being held in Sacramento, the capital of California. Falun Gong practitioners exposed the persecution of Falun Gong and asked the Chinese government to release Charles Li, a fellow practitioner who is being detained.

In the four years since July 20, 1999 the "610 Office" of Hengshui City directed each propaganda department to spread the slander broadcast by CCTV. They slandered Falun Gong's founder and Falun Gong itself. At the same time the officials directed the public and the legal system and each enterprise to arrest, kidnap, detain, search the homes of, fine, and fire Falun Gong practitioners. According to incomplete statistics, over 40 people were sentenced and sent to forced labor in Hengshui City alone. Numerous people were kidnapped, detained and jailed beyond the term of imprisonment. An Xiukun and Xiao Xingai of Hengshui City; Liu Qiusheng of Fucheng County; an elderly man over 60-years old in Jing County; and two elderly practitioners in Shen County were killed as a result of the persecution.
