Solemn Declaration
When the evil regime began to persecute Dafa on July 20, 1999, a fellow practitioner and I went to Beijing together. Later on, I was illegally imprisoned by Chinese Communist Party personnel. In the face if intense pressure, and because I was not clear on the Fa principles and was attached to sentiment, I went against my convictions and wrote the so-called guarantee statement. In May 2001, I was sent to a brainwashing center. At that time, I was seriously attached to the pursuit of comfort. I did not know when the persecution would end, so I felt helpless and numb about everything. Controlled by sentiment and the pursuit of comfort, in order to be released sooner, I betrayed Teacher and Dafa again and went against my convictions to write the evil three statements. In May 2002, I was sent to the brainwashing center and again I wrote the "three statements." However, the more I complied, the more the evil persecuted me.
In December 2002, I was sent to the brainwashing center yet again. This time I was completely numb, so I only thought that if I wrote the three statements I could leave that evil place. I betrayed my own conscience again. The pain I feel is hard to describe, because I took Teacher's mercy so lightly like this again and again. Even after this, Teacher was still merciful to me and was not willing to give up on me, so it was arranged that some fellow practitioners and I studied the Fa and shared our experiences. Under the inspiration of Teacher's mercy, in the face of Dafa's might, and with fellow practitioners' help, I finally realized my root problem. It was selfishness that caused me to not believe Teacher and the Fa, not to take cultivation seriously, and not treasure the rare and precious opportunity Teacher has given us. At the same time, I also realized clearly the old forces' dangerous intention. I know that only if I listen to Teacher's words and do things I should do as a Dafa disciple can I truly eradicate all arrangements by the old forces. I declare that all the words and deeds that go against Teacher and Dafa and the three statements I wrote are null and void. I will doubly make up for the losses I caused Dafa, follow Teacher's Fa-rectification process, firmly safeguard the Fa, and do the three things Dafa disciples should do. I will be worthy of Teacher's salvation, and I will be a qualified disciple in the Fa-rectification period.

Solemn Declaration
After the persecution began in July 1999, I was harassed by local police at my job. Because of fear, I cooperated with them and wrote the guarantee statement to not practice and not appeal. In 2000, I went to Beijing to report the wrongful situation of the persecution against Dafa. I was arrested by the people in the civil complaints office. Later on, I was taken back to the local police station to be persecuted. I was threatened, lured by the promise of gain, and not allowed to sleep. I did wrong things that went against Teacher and Dafa. Later on, with the help of fellow practitioners, I obtained some Dafa books, which were later burned by my family members who did not understand the truth. They also coordinated the Chinese Communist Party personnel to follow me, and they allowed them to use an alias for me to publish a so-called report in a newspaper. When I worked in the Linxiang local police station, the police found out that I studied the Fa. I was illegally arrested and persecuted by the police. I hereby declare that all the words and deeds that I did against Dafa are null and void. I will re-cultivate, closely follow Teacher, and do the three things well.
