Helping the Family Members of Practitioners Being Persecuted to Have Upright Thoughts
2005-04-25I heard that the arrested practitioner's husband was having a very difficult time since her arrest. He blamed her and was resentful towards the fellow practitioners who contacted her. Her husband did not know of me. Looking at the entire situation, I knew that the practitioner in custody worried the most. To help her family correctly comprehend Falun Dafa and her fellow practitioners was very important. I also wanted to see if her children needed any care or help from me. -
Detention Centre Becomes a Falun Gong Class Due To Practitioners' Righteous Thoughts and Actions
2005-04-25As our efforts progressed, many people began to learn about Falun Dafa and their bias toward the Dafa practitioners vanished as the environment swiftly improved. One financial section head asked about the "April 25" incident and the "Tiananmen Square Self-Immolation." After hearing the facts he said, "From the very beginning I suspected there was something phony about it, now I understand." -
Study of the Falun Gong Teachings has Been My Shield against the Persecution
2005-04-25Later, fellow practitioners who were arrested confessed to the authorities on two occasions about my involvement in Falun Gong activities. For a third time, I was reported to the authorities by a print shop owner who was forced to confess. She told them that I printed more than forty pages of Falun Dafa materials in her shop. Actually, most of the materials that I made were printed in her shop. It was a very serious matter. If you put all three confessions together, I could have been sentenced to a few years of imprisonment. -
Large-Scale Arrest by the Evil Party is an Act of Desperation
2005-04-24I will never forget the evening of July 20th 1999. My heart sunk when I heard that the CCP's Jiang regime was conducting massive, nationwide arrests of volunteer Falun Gong contact people. Although I was in the U.S. at the time, I could almost feel the air thickening, as I had flashbacks of the time when I grew up under the CCP's rule of terror. Six years have passed. After witnessing the battle between the upright and the evil, when I again heard that the evil CCP is conducting the largest arrest and persecution of Falun Gong practitioners since July 20th 1999, I had totally different feelings. -
Jiang Renzheng’s Three-year Sentence in a Forced Labour Camp Reflects the Evil Nature of the Chinese Communist Party
2005-04-24On April the 8th, the Municipal Public Security Department in Benxi City, Liaoning Province took away Jiang Renzheng, a Falun Gong practitioner, who has just returned from Germany to China. On April 9th, they detained him in a labour camp in Benxi city and was immediately sentenced to three years forced labour education without any legal procedure. Even more ridiculous was the reason for his forced labour education: he was suspected of having an association with the Falun Gong organisation and accused of destabilising social order and violating the national order. -
How the Chinese Communist Party Spreads Lies in Order to Persecute Falun Gong (Part I)
2005-04-24Persecution is always built on lies. In 64 AD, the Roman emperor Nero set in motion a large-scale persecution of Christians. Rome was set on fire and Christians were blamed for it. From 1938 to 1945, Hitler perpetrated genocide against the Jews, espousing a theory that they were an inferior human race. It sounds absurd today, but for many people at the time, it seemed to provide enough grounds for the persecution. Because many people believed the carefully fabricated lies, those who opposed the persecution were silenced by force. -
A Little Story
2005-04-24One day when packing my suitcase to take with me on a trip to attend a conference, I couldn’t find my passport. I searched everywhere twice, even three times, but I just couldn’t find it. I couldn't even remember having seen it after my previous journey. Therefore the only thing I could do, as it was the day I was to travel, was to go to the police station to have a one-year passport promptly issued. -
Exposing the Lies to Tourists from Mainland China
2005-04-24According to people from Mainland China who went abroad, the tour guides and local guides claimed that Falun Gong practitioners who display picture boards and hand out truth clarification materials are hired, and these tour guides also claimed that they were paid for doing this. Some people believed these lies, and this caused misunderstandings. These problems happened in Europe, Macao, Hong Kong and other areas. We have learned that tour guides from Chinese tour agencies are required to slander Falun Gong by their superiors, asking them to claim that practitioners who do truth clarification work overseas are paid to do so. From this we can see how Jiang Zemin's faction and the CCP use lies to slander Falun Gong. -
A Former Burn Patient Exposes China Central TV's "Tiananmen Self-Immolation" Fraud by Sharing His First-Hand Experiences
2005-04-23I saw on TV that Liu Siyin was covered by a sheet and lying in bed when the reporter, wearing street clothes, went into the room. Immediately I thought to myself, "Why is Liu Siyin covered with a sheet? Why isn't the reporter wearing special clothes and a disinfected respirator? Why is this being broadcast all over China and to the rest of the world? If Liu Siyin had windpipe surgery, how can she talk just four days after the surgery? Her voice is clear when she sings. Isn't this all just acting?" -
I Read A Falun Gong Book Three Times and Regained My Health
2005-04-23My wife, who often looked after me, was not well either, and she suffered from several chronic ailments. After my wife had seen the transformation in me, she began to study Falun Gong. All her chronic diseases went away, and she regained her health. She said cheerfully: "Falun Dafa is great!" From then on, my wife and I studied the Falun Gong teachings every day, and we both started to practise Falun Gong. Now, we are always in a good mood and do not need to worry about our medical expenses any more. -

Young Practitioner: I Went to Tiananmen Square and Cried Out for All to Hear "Falun Dafa Is Good"
2005-04-22In Beijing, during a flag raising ceremony in Tiananmen Square, I called out for all to hear, "Falun Dafa is good!" After the ceremony, I felt that I should let even more people know, so I turned and ran towards the people walking in the square, shouting, "Falun Dafa is good!" After a while, the group leader discovered that I wasn't with the team and could not find me. He scolded me when he found me, but I did not hold any grudge against him for that. -
Informing Everyone I Encounter With the True Facts About Falun Gong
2005-04-22I said firmly, "This practise is great. Our teacher teaches us to be a good person, a better person. Not only does this practise help people become noble, it also eliminates one's sickness karma." I told him that I had suffered from multiple diseases before practising Falun Gong. In particular, I had severe psoriasis. The doctor from the Provincial Skin Research Institute had told me that no medicine could cure this condition. At that time, I also suffered from gastric disease, neurasthenia, and other ailments. All my diseases were healed after practising Falun Gong for half a year." -
Reference Material: Accuracy in Media Speech on China's Great Firewall of Information Control
2005-04-21The following are remarks given by Sherrie Gossett on April 12th, 2005 at a forum at the NY Press Club. The topic was French satellite provider Eutelsat's decision to terminate independent Chinese language TV station NTDTV's broadcast into China, following lucrative business contracts with China. Also discussed was the broader pattern of information control by Beijing. -
Many Prisoners at Weibei Prison in Shangdong Province Ask to Learn Falun Gong
2005-04-21Their attempts to "transform" Falun Gong practitioners have failed. Also, despite their research on the criminal mind over the past 25 years, they have been unable to fundamentally change the criminals' ways of thinking. In contrast, after the criminals were exposed to Falun Gong practitioners for several years, they abandoned their criminal thoughts and began to follow the good examples of the practitioners. They began doing good deeds and indeed have become good people, learning to practise Falun Gong from the inner most part of their hearts.
