Dafa Disciples are pretty busy now doing many different things. Sometimes, because of this, they may ignore some important things. Because of the separation among disciples between regions or countries, many things are isolated. We can’t handle the importance from all perspectives.
The whole Fa-rectification process is pushing forward. Of course it’s not an accident that some important things have happened. Most of the time we can recognize that the reason for the problem occurring is the old forces interference and persecution. However, exposing the evil of the persecution more comprehensively and with more detail is our important task.
Since July 20th, 1999, the evil has persecuted Dafa and Dafa Disciples openly. After the international society, governments, media, and all kinds of organizations and people all over the world have come to know the truth of the persecution, more and more people called out for justice, hoping to immediately stop the persecution of Falun Gong. However, the evil didn’t restrain itself. On the contrary, the evil has extended its hands to other countries and their citizens. A number of practitioners who either are citizens or residents of countries other than China went to China with their sincere heart to clarify the truth to the Chinese government and its people. However, they were detained, forced into labor education, beaten cruelly, and some were tortured to such a state that it was easier to die rather than keep living. Over one hundred western Falun Gong practitioners went to China to tell the Chinese how they benefited from cultivating Falun Gong, but, they were detained and beaten just because they opened up a banner, which says ”Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance”. Since that time, more and more western Falun Gong practitioners have gone to China with their golden, compassionate hearts. Putting aside their concerns for their own safety, they have continued to go up to the Chinese people and to China. However, violence and intimidation always await them.
The above cases used to be contained within China. Cases of persecution happened during the head of the evil’s visit to Germany, Iceland and Hong Kong. This indicates the persecution of Falun Gong has been extended to other democratic countries. Another example is in the US. Chinese consulates frequently interfere with American government officials’ work directly by coercing and using government officials to revoke proclamations for Falun Gong and its founder as well as other actions. All these have proved that the persecution of Falun Gong is not only in China.
Wherever evil goes, there is the danger of it poisoning the locals. This is the evil’s nature. Master said in Teaching the Fa at the 2001 Canada Fa Conference (Guiding the Voyage), “You know, when this evil sees that it’s going to be eliminated it runs totally rampant. It is bad, it is venomous, and it is evil. And just like poison, if you want it not to poison people it can’t do that—that’s just how it is. So in the process of eliminating it don’t be lenient at all—just clean it out! Here I’m not referring to human beings, but to those evil beings that manipulate humans.”
Thus, evil’s persecution is not only against Falun Gong practitioners, but extends to poison people in other countries as well. The persecution is not only in China, but extends to other countries. Numerous facts have proved the persecution of Falun Gong is not just a Chinese problem but an international one. It’s a problem with which people all over the world should be concerned. They should resist and stop the persecution altogether.
When we send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil, we should also make use of all reasonable and legal means at human beings’ level, disclose the nature of the evil more deeply, expose its attempt to complete destruction of people all over the world, and help people really awaken and resist the evil’s poison consciously so that people can be saved.
