Editors' Note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.
Policeman in Huludao Labor Camp Stops Doing Evil Deeds After Suffering Karmic Retribution
Policeman Xu Guoliang is the leader of Team Two in Huludao Labor Camp, Liaoning Province. At the beginning of 2003, he beat practitioners that were detained in the camp. Several days later when he went out to work, he was accidentally struck by a piece of iron, which almost severed his neck. He went to various hospitals, but no one could help him.

A Thug in Panzhihua City, Sichuan Province Receives Karmic Retribution

Official Who Beat Practitioners Suffers Grievous Injury
Between 1999 and 2000, a certain town government under the instruction of the "610 Office" assigned each town government official to monitor Falun Gong practitioners. Each official had to make sure there were no practitioners in his assigned village going to Beijing to appeal; otherwise the official would be penalized. Zhou Jianyi is the director of the town finance department. For the sake of political gain, he was quite vicious to practitioners in his assigned village. He would beat whoever went to Beijing to appeal. Each day he beat practitioners from 8 pm to 10 pm. He exclaimed, "If there's anyone in my village going to appeal, my reputation would be damaged. Therefore, I don't care whether Falun Gong is right or wrong. Jiang pays my salary and I'll follow his orders." Several months later he fell from a tall building while drinking there. After he was discharged from the hospital, he remained in a comatose state.
Liu Wanquan in Liaoning Province Sentenced to Prison
Liu Wanquan was the director of the Zhizhushan Police Station in Fuxin City, Liaoning Province. After the persecution began on July 20, 1999, he often cursed at Dafa and Teacher, and persecuted practitioners who went to Beijing to appeal. He also extorted money from practitioners. In September 2000, he led a group of thugs to arrest practitioners. He shot practitioner Huang Xiaojie in the leg. Because of this incident, he was promoted to the captain of the Fuxin City Investigation Brigade. He continued persecuting practitioners and has done numerous evil deeds. In February 2003, Liu was sentenced to prison and is now jailed in Yingkou Prison.
Persecuting Dafa and practitioners will incur tremendous karma. People have tribulations in their lives because of the karma they have accumulated, and they have to repay the karma. If they persecute Falun Gong, it will be extremely hard for them to repay their karma in this lifetime. We hereby solemnly warn those who are still persecuting practitioners: no matter whether or not you believe in the existence of Gods and Buddhas, please do not gamble with your own life. Stop doing evil deeds now so you can have a better future.
