An Awakened Family Resists the Persecution with Upright Thoughts

(Clearwisdom.net)

Not long after being recently arrested, I broke free of the evil forces and regained freedom with righteous thoughts. During the whole process, my family members showed that they had awakened; that they had seen through the deceitful tricks of the evil Chinese Communist Party (CCP), stood courageously against it, and exposed its malicious tricks.

Before this, I was arrested twice by 610 Office police right in front of my husband. At that time the only thing he thought about was to save me. However, failing to see through the evil tricks, he resorted to establishing a personal relationship with the police in charge and pleaded with them to set me free, which cost him a lot of money. The wicked 610 officials told him: "She is very stubborn in the detention center. If she refuses to give up Falun Gong, she will be sentenced to forced labor this time." Or: "Several detainees will be sentenced to imprisonment. Maybe she is among them. She may be spared if you plead with the officials in charge in advance as soon as possible." Their deceitful and intimidating tricks made all my family members very worried, and they ended up saying things against Dafa and Teacher.

On July 26, the day after I was arrested, local fellow practitioners immediately started their efforts to rescue me. Some of them contacted my family members, some went close to the place of my detention to send righteous thoughts, and some went directly to the police and required that I should be released immediately. The next day, posters exposing the evildoers were found almost everywhere in the city. In the meantime, they published articles about my arrest on Minghui/Clearwisdom to expose my arrest. In this way, practitioners formed an invincible unified body; evil had nowhere to hide.

This time my husband went directly to the policeman in charge and said straightforwardly: "Do you have any human nature still left? She conducts herself very well because she practices Falun Gong, and she is very important to our family. Her parents-in-law are over 80 years old and our granddaughter has been weaned only recently. I have diabetes. All of us are dependent on her. We will not spare you if there is anything wrong with her." The policeman could not reply. My son also joined my husband and reasoned with the police. In his haste, the policeman said: "I know that you are resorting to some personal relationships to rescue her. Your mother will be fine."

In fact, my family members did not resort to any personal relationships at all. On the contrary, the police sent a message to us through some of my acquaintances: "We will release her immediately if you pay us, otherwise....." Isn't this kidnapping? No wonder people say: "The police nowadays are scoundrels in uniforms." All my family members came to understand that money could not solve the problem. Then my husband went to the police and said: "I used to pay you money to rescue her at any price after you arrested her, but now I have no money. On the contrary, I am deep in debt. If you really want money, you can allocate some to me from the fine that I paid you before." He also told my relatives: "You should not spend any money on this. This is not a problem of money. They want to play the same trick to extort money from us as they did the last two times. They will not make it this time. We definitely will not pay them."

My sons also argued strongly with the local police station chief: "Why don't you protect your local residents under your jurisdiction?" His answer was surprising: "I will do that if you pay 1000,000 yuan to my account." How disgraceful he is!

With their righteous thoughts and actions, my fellow practitioners spared no effort to expose the evildoers. At the same time, they kept in close contact with my family members and cooperated well with them. With the compassionate care of Teacher, I broke through the tribulation openly.

The family members of arrested practitioners should maintain thoughts of justice, see through the evildoers plots, and demand the release of those arrested openly. They should not be manipulated. This is a battle between good and evil.

The above are my experiences and understandings at my level. Please kindly point out anything improper. In our cultivation we can improve ourselves with the instruction of nothing else but Dafa. Otherwise, we will fall behind in Fa rectification.
