Western Practitioner: Journey to Tiananmen Square
2001-12-03
I had been to China a couple of times before the crackdown started. I met many wonderful, kind and unselfish practitioners and we practised together in the parks of Beijing and in Dalian. I like China very much. My trips to China have enriched my life a lot, and I learned much about cultivation from practitioners in China. During the last 2 years, practitioners in China have put their lives at stake to go to Tiananmen in order to appeal to the government and make their voice heard, since all other channels to the government are blocked. I felt encouraged by the brave practitioners in China, who have firmly protected their right to believe in Truthfulness-Compassion- Forbearance. -
Husband of Falun Dafa Practitioner Fights for Wife's Release from Forced Labor Camp and Wins
2001-12-01...The 36th item of the Constitution states, "Citizens have the freedom of belief"; the Constitution also clearly stipulates, "Citizens have the freedom to appeal." I also remember that the 98th item of the General Rule of the Civil Law states that "Citizens have the right to improve their health", etc. Therefore, according to the Constitution, all practitioners are innocent... -

Western Tourist's Eyewitness Account of Brutal Incident in Tiananmen Square
2001-11-27...her small protest was certainly not in vain as it has certainly caused at least 8 foreign adults to be more aware of both the Falun [Gong] and the brutal repression of it's members in China. I greatly admire that lady for her courage and bravery and pray for her safety. -

An Appeal from a Practitioner's Family Member: Stand Up to the Evil and Reduce the Persecution
2001-10-02My older sister is a dedicated practitioner of Falun Dafa. Ever since July of 1999, she has been arrested and beaten on many different occasions. My sister is such a good person, and she has done nothing wrong! To all family members of practitioners: aren't your family members who practise Falun Gong all kind people as well? If they are kind people, then why are you afraid to acknowledge it? Use your own judgment to distinguish the righteous from the evil, and also, don't be afraid of the suppression from those who hold power and let your family members suffer any further. -
Living Beings Need "Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance"
2001-09-29The terrorist attack reminded me of another issue, which is that nothing other than mankind's morality and the protection of God can help us or keep us from being harmed. Even in the U.S., a country with the most developed scientific technology and the most advanced military forces, a tragedy involving the loss of thousands of lives in a single day could still happen. How can anyone, in any country, still consider himself safe? In the face of such an unexpected tragedy, scientific technology, wealth, power, prosperity, and other pursuits in a human world built upon materialism, cannot be compared with the preciousness of the first cry of a newborn baby. -
A Non-practitioner's Fair Words about Falun Gong
2001-09-18"Although I don't practise Falun Gong, I think those who do are purely good people. They act according to what their Teacher says, "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance." Does our country fear too many good people? Is enduring, being kind, and telling the truth a bad thing? Therefore, here I want to say a few fair words: the country's ban on Falun Gong couldn't be more wrong." -

NTDTV Gala: "This is Real Chinese Traditional Culture"
-In contemporary China, everything must be in praise of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). But people know in their hearts that the CCP is evil, since few people have not suffered from the Party. The CCP controls the power to force people to work for it; so can people be happy doing it? Coming neither from the hearts of artists nor speaking for the people, of course, the art works made in such circumstances are not touching. So we can put it this way: leaving the CCP's shadow, Chinese people can finally find their true selves and create genuine art works, and show the world the real meaning of Chinese culture."
