(Clearwisdom.net) When practitioners are persecuted and imprisoned by the wicked Chinese Communist Party, some of them ask Master to create an illusion of their being sick so that they can be released on medical parole. Once when I was arrested, I also had such a thought. In the end, I appeared to have serious sickness and was subsequently released.
When I was again arrested, I had the same thought. I appeared to have the same “sickness,” but this time the police told me that their supervisors had given them orders that, unless the practitioner was in shock, he or she was not be sent to the hospital or released. I was in so much pain that I couldn't think straight. I didn't have righteous thoughts and couldn't recite the Fa. I realized that pursuing sickness was wrong and that I should immediately deny all of the old force's arrangements. Fourteen days later, I was released. I recovered three days after I came home.
Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples are validating Dafa and saving sentient beings. When others see that Dafa disciples have sickness, they may think that, although we practice Falun Gong, we can still get sick and that we then don't take medicine. By going along with these old force's arrangements, we are failing to show people the beauty of Dafa or validate Dafa's ability to keep practitioners fit. Worst of all, we are giving them a negative impression of Dafa.
Based on my understanding of the Fa, I feel that Dafa disciples should clarify the truth and resist the persecution with dignity. We should use our divine power, righteous thoughts, and righteous actions to get out of prison. That is validating Dafa's dignity and beauty. Everyday people will see that practicing Falun Gong is beneficial to a person's body and mind, that practitioners are compassionate and righteous, and that no one can persecute us. People will respect Dafa disciples, come to listen the truth, and even learn the practice.
It is not right to rely on illusions of sickness to get out of prison, especially when we ask Master to create the illusion of being sick. This is a gap that the old forces could easily take advantage of and make the persecution worse. Ordinary people may misunderstand and think that practicing Falun Gong doesn't cure diseases. Worse yet, people may get the impression that practicing Falun Gong causes one to be persecuted. Even if practitioners are released on medical parole, it is still not dignified. In my opinion, it's not practicing in an upright and dignified way and may be a manifestation of an incorrect cultivation state.
Furthermore, how could Dafa disciples still entertain fantasies about the Party? Do you think that they are merciful and will release you because of your poor physical condition? We need to look at the issue of why the persecution still continues, resolve it from the basis of validating the Fa, and not treat it as a persecution by humans towards humans.
This is my understanding at my current level. My fellow practitioners, please point out anything improper.
