From Gang Leader to Good Person

A friend said, “A gangster like you who used to stop at no evil has changed to become a different person after you put your faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. You no longer drink, fight and you stopped gambling. I believe Falun Gong is good because of seeing the changes in you.”

January 17, 2014 | By a practitioner from Gansu Province, China
(Minghui.org) I started practicing Falun Gong in 2005. Before that, I was destructively aggressive. I was arrested several times because of fighting, but was never sentenced.
My mother practiced Falun Gong and was persecuted multiple times after the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began its persecution of the practice in July 1999. She was arrested a lot and was held at the local detention center, drug rehabilitation center, forced labor camp, and in the end, she was illegally sentencedto over a decade in prison.
As for me, I was the leader of a gang; so what made me finally give up evil and became a Falun Gong practitioner who believes in the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance?
My mom is a kind person. After she started to practice Falun Gong she became an even better person and more open. She used to have lots of illnesses. She was always on the lookout for Chinese medicines in her attempt to return to good health. She also practiced other kinds of qigong. But since she began to practice Falun Gong, her health improved dramatically, and so has her temper. She kept telling me to accumulate virtue and stop doing bad things.
I read the book Zhuan Falun twice and agreed with the principles. When I read that Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are the “Sole Criterion to Discern Good and Bad People,” I was convinced. But, I thought that I still needed to earn more money first, and then I would cultivate.
One day I was depressed and very upset, so I drank excessively. My mother again told me to stop losing virtue. I got even more upset and cut my head with a beer bottle. I was taken to the hospital by my younger brother. When I woke up the next day, my mother told me, “One of the principles of Falun Gong is that harming, killing people or committing suicide is a crime.” It is for this reason that I didn’t believe in the self-immolation hoax on Tiananmen Square when I saw it on TV.
Doubting the CCP
I had a good relationship with two colleagues, both of whom practice Falun Gong. I knew their characters and personalities very well. They are mild and kind people. However, they were persecuted by the communist regime. They were sentenced to forced labor, lost their jobs and have become homeless.
Chinese government officials are corrupt and yet the government doesn’t stop the corruption. Yet, they persecute innocent people who do not hit back when attacked, and do not talk back when insulted. Thousands of practitioners have been persecuted to death. How can I believe in the Party?
Not Imprisoned as a Gangster but as a Falun Gong Practitioner
I think that the CCP is the real cult. Practitioners are the most righteous people. I have been convinced and moved by the principles of Falun Gong, and have begun to practice Falun Gong.
I was arrested and sentenced to prison one year after I started to practice Falun Gong. Some of my friends said I was foolish, as I didn’t spend my time on making money and even lost my job due to my belief in Falun Gong.
I told them, “It’s worth it [to practice Falun Gong]!” The authorities didn’t arrest me when I was a gangster, but they put me in the prison when I wanted to be a good person who believes in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. What does this demonstrate? It is very clear to see who is good and who is evil.
A friend said, “A gangster like you who used to stop at no evil has changed to become a different person after you put your faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. You no longer drink, fight and you stopped gambling. I believe Falun Gong is good because of seeing the changes in you.”
Quitting the CCP
Nearly all of my old friends have quit the Party and its affiliated organizations after I clarified the truth to them. I also helped over 50 people quit when I was in prison.
I once helped more than 20 people quit the CCP and its affiliates at my friend’s birthday party for his one-month-old baby.
I also gave copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party and truth-clarification DVDs to the police officers I knew. I have helped several officials, prison guards, police officers and security guards quit the CCP and its affiliates as well.
The majority of my fellow gang members admire and support Falun Gong behind the scenes. They encourage me to persist in my belief. I gave them some software which helps them break through the Internet blockade and allows them to search out the truth themselves.
Practitioners Are the Most Reliable People
A police officer who was deluded by the communist regime’s propaganda used to report practitioners to the authorities. After I clarified the truth about Falun Gong to him, he understood and said, “If you have truth-clarification materials you want to distribute, please let me know. I will drive you in the police car to help you distribute them.”
My friend and I accepted a job at a Karaoke bar [where people sing along with a music video] recently. My friend hired a practitioner to make assorted fresh fruit platters. He said, “The people I hired before either stole the fruits or took them home. This practitioner, has never eaten the fruit nor taken anything home.”
The person whose job was taken over by the practitioner asked the manager to fire the practitioner. But my friend said that he would resign if the practitioner would be let go.
I am very happy when ordinary people have a good understanding of Dafa practitioners. They think that practitioners are the most reliable people! It is also most encouraging that more and more people support Falun Gong.

一个需要重拾信仰的国度——中国

现代的中国社会与古代相比正好相反,中国人应该信仰的,应该追捧的都发生了很大的变化。与古代清静淳朴的社会相比,现在的社会就是物欲横流。特别是中共的出现,完全摧毁了中国人古老的信仰与道德良知,以魔鬼的党性取代人性,把中国古代的神传文化歪曲成了愚昧的封建迷信,从而让中国人抛弃对神佛的信仰,变成魔鬼共产党的奴隶。

文/净真
【明慧网二零一四年一月二十六日】现今的中国社会从官到民,从富到贫,挖空心思地想赚钱,认为只要赚到钱,就是赢家,至于采取什么手段,使用什么方法,伤没伤害到谁就是根本不去考虑。官员们权力大,资源广就变成巨贪。富商有资本就与官员勾结,走各种后门来打通关系,不顾及产品对人的安全,昧着良心的造出什么地沟油、瘦肉精、皮革胶囊、假药等等劣品、毒品危害民众。穷人什么可利用的资源都没有的就变成偷、抢、盗、妓等等。
文艺作品的宣传处处围绕着黄色、色情的东西在转。什么A片、B片的都发酵成黄色毒文化了。还有什么艳照门、不雅照、走光片已经变成吸引目光的焦点了,一打开网页就往出蹦。还有什么同性恋、吸毒、乱伦等等的肮脏行径。今天的社会已经完全的败坏掉了,失去信仰维系的人们就会无恶不作,无利不占,无德不损,最后使大家都生活在水深火热之中。
人们通过对神佛的信仰能够维系人们的道德,而道德可以维系一个国家和民族的安定、富裕、和平、昌盛等等。当然不同的民族和国家有着对不同的佛、道、神的信奉,在这个世界上有佛教、基督教、天主教、道教等等。对神佛的信仰,可以使人心向善,人们懂得善恶有报的道理就会从内心约束自己,国家的治安也会变好,人与人之间会真诚的彼此交往,人们通过遵照对神佛留给人们的教诲,在社会上去做一个好人,做任何事情都会兢兢业业地做好,各个行业也会因此而繁荣昌盛,人们的生活会变得更加富裕、更加美好。国家富强,民心就会更加团结,外敌自然就不敢轻易来犯。所以古今中外任何一个贤明的国王、皇帝、总统、首相都把提升人们的道德作为重点去施政的。当然政府也会制定相关的法律来约束着人们的道德底线与行为标准,谁越过这个底线,就会受到法律的惩处。
相反,如果人们抛弃对神佛的信仰,转而对金钱和欲望去追求,人人就会为了自己的利益和欲望变得越来越不择手段,为所欲为。社会的犯罪率就会增多,人与人之间的关系也会变得越来越紧张。由于人们只顾赚钱、享乐,人们也无心专注在工作和生活上,企业的效益也会下降,随之带来的企业倒闭,失业人口增多等等的负面效应。人们的生活也就变得越来越贫苦,还可能引发动乱、战争或者其它的灾难等等。
在古老的中国,人们主要是信仰儒、释、道。所以古代的中国人普遍很善良、很诚实。相信善有善报,恶有恶报。当人们提起神佛之时,都会心升敬仰。人与人之间的关系也是很自然、很淳朴的。官员与学者们都是读圣贤书籍与圣人典故的,他们对人体、生命、天地、宇宙、自然万物会有很深层面的理解。人们的交往中都很真诚,很少有那种耍手段的党派争斗。古代人很注重礼乐,而重礼乐的目的是让人能够规范言行,节制欲望。古代人穿戴的服饰,使用的车马、耕种的粮食、居住的房屋都有很多种说法,这些说法都与天地、阴阳、五行等自然规律有着千丝万缕的联系。整个社会都处在一种平静、祥和、安宁的状态下。所以古代社会虽然没有现代社会这么眼花缭乱,但是人们的生活要比现代人舒适、愉悦、幸福。
现代的中国社会与古代相比正好相反,中国人应该信仰的,应该追捧的都发生了很大的变化。与古代清静淳朴的社会相比,现在的社会就是物欲横流。特别是中共的出现,完全摧毁了中国人古老的信仰与道德良知,以魔鬼的党性取代人性,把中国古代的神传文化歪曲成了愚昧的封建迷信,从而让中国人抛弃对神佛的信仰,变成魔鬼共产党的奴隶。共产党把它的斗争哲学掺杂到中国古代的历史中,败坏古人的文化,让人们觉得古代也是一样的乱,还不如现在的错觉。新闻联播的后半段都是报道其它国家发生的灾难与动乱,让中国人错以为只有在中共的领导下才是最太平的假相,而大量的高官、富人、贵族却带着巨资移民到国外。
共产党还把各个寺庙、道观和教堂改造成中共领导下的“信仰圣地”,那些和尚、道士、神父都是拥护无神论的共产党培训的工作人员,他们上班穿成统一的工作服装成和尚,下班有酒、有肉、有女人,败坏着神佛留给人们的神圣信仰,摧毁着人类生命的根本。失去信仰的人们开始渐渐变得麻木、残忍、不择手段、追求金钱和欲望,人们也渐渐地走向了无恶不作的境地。
当人们的一切信仰,一切信奉都被摧毁的时候,人们已经无力挽回沦丧了的道德的时候,社会败坏的即将走向崩溃的边缘的时候,一个能令人重建对神佛的信仰,重新使德道回升,使败坏的社会重归于美好的“法轮大法”在社会上渐渐地传播开来。
在短短的几年时间,人们通过对法轮功的修炼,通过用法轮功中提出的真善忍的标准来归正自己,净化自己,纯净自己。使得修炼者达到了身心上的无穷受益与层次的提升。由于人们习炼法轮功后得到的美好的变化,所以修炼人数日益增多。从一九九二年到一九九九年的七年中,仅中国一地就有上亿人在修炼法轮功,分布在各个行业与领域。使社会的文明与人们的道德得到了巨大的回升。当时中国以乔石为首的老干部对法轮功进行调查后,在报告中写道,“法轮功于国于民有百利而无一害”。
一九九八年十一月十日,中国《羊城晚报》以《老少皆练法轮功》为题报导了广州烈士陵园等处法轮功炼功点5000人的大型晨炼。
一九九八年十一月十日,中国《羊城晚报》以《老少皆练法轮功》为题报导了广州烈士陵园等处法轮功炼功点5000人的大型晨炼。
在1999年以前,中国的《羊城晚报》、“晚间新闻”等媒体纷纷正面报道了人们通过修炼法轮功后的收益情况。
93年东方健康博览会(1993-12)
93年东方健康博览会(1993-12)
“东方健康博览会”、“北京公安部见义勇为基金会”分别授予法轮功创始人李洪志先生褒奖和荣誉。现在法轮功传向了世界一百多个国家,来自世界各国给予法轮功和法轮功创始人的褒奖、决议、支持信函达三千多项。法轮功创始人连续四次获得诺贝尔和平奖的提名,法轮功的书籍翻译成三十多种语言向世界发行。由于法轮功的传入给很多的城市、地区的人民带来很大的受益,这包括市民通过炼法轮功后得到身体上的康复,习炼者们按真善忍的要求做一个好人从而带来的城市道德文明的提升以及城市犯罪率的下降等等。所以许多城市或地区的领导把该城市的某一天定为“法轮大法日”、“李洪志大师日”,以此来感谢法轮功给该地区带来的美好。
法轮功是从中国走向世界的,法轮功所到之处都是一片赞扬和欢迎之声,为人类的未来带来了无限的美好与幸福。这对于中国人来说是多么自豪和骄傲的事啊!中国的现代史里有哪几样是可以影响全世界的呢?况且能有像法轮功传播得这么大、这么好、这么受欢迎的从中国走出来的文明,回看历史从上古到今天都未曾有过。但是法轮功做到了。这对于中国任何的一个领导人来说都是一件大好事,都应该支持和奖励的。
但是当时的中共头目江泽民对法轮功和法轮功修炼者不但没有支持,反而采取了最邪恶、最残酷、最狠毒的镇压与迫害,通过动用宣传部门控制所有的媒体对法轮功进行诬陷、抹黑,动用军、警、宪、特等执行机关对无数名法轮功学员进行抄家、非法关押、非法劳教、非法判刑,动用上百种人们所听到的或没听到的酷刑对法轮功学员进行长期折磨与迫害,企图让法轮功学员放弃对真善忍的信仰。江泽民集团还动用了国家四分之一的财力用来专门迫害法轮功。据资料推算从一九九九年七月到现在有几百万名法轮功学员在中共的看守所、拘留所、劳教所、洗脑班、监狱、精神病院等地被迫害致死。
然而法轮功在中共的疯狂打压下没有倒下,不但没有倒下反而越来越强大。因为邪恶永远也压不住真善忍,真善忍的光芒照亮着世界上的每一个角落,解体世界上的一切邪恶与黑暗,同时还在启迪着人们善良的本性。法轮功修炼者们经过十四多年的反迫害,向人们讲述着法轮功的真实情况与揭露中共迫害法轮功,人们也渐渐地看到了共产党的邪恶。自从大纪元社论《九评共产党》问世以来,人们纷纷了加入了退出中共的党、团、队的三退大潮,纷纷抛弃曾经加入过中共的邪恶组织。
到目前为止“大纪元网站”声明三退的人数已超过一亿五千万之多,这个数字还在以每天八、九万人的速度在增加着。这亿万的敢于退出中共邪党的民众,敢于抛弃魔鬼的民众,敢于真正认识自我的民众为生命的未来成就了关键的生存之路。为中国人能够重拾对神佛的信仰,能够找回善良的本性,能够回归人类的道德,做出了重要的选择!

Italian Newspaper Calls Organ Harvesting “Monstrous Acts”

Normally one would imagine an organ trade dealer to be despicable and hide in a slum in a third world country. The report says that the case in China is different: dealers work in professional hospitals, conduct the trade and kill prisoners of conscience on demand. There are no legal consequences due to the nationwide persecution of Falun Gong.

December 26, 2013 | By Falun Gong practitioners in Italy
(Minghui.org) La Repubblica, the second largest daily newspaper in Italy, called organ harvesting “monstrous acts” in its report on December 23. This report followed several media reports on the same topic. The Human Rights Committee in the Senate of the Italian Parliament held a hearing about this state-sanctioned crime on December 19.
Mr. David Matas, a world-renowned human rights attorney and an expert on the issue of forced organ harvesting in China, testified at the hearing. He is also featured in the La Repubblica report entitled “The Battle of David for Prisoners in China.”
La Repubblica report entitled “The Battle of David for Prisoners in China”
Report Identifies Organ Harvesting in China as State-sanctioned
The report says that China, a country that has very few voluntary donors for cultural reasons, became the second largest organ transplant nation within a few years. Mr. Matas’battle sounds like a horror movie: the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has systematically killed tens of thousands Falun Gong practitioners for their organs. There were hundreds of millions of Falun Gong practitioners in China before the persecution started in July 1999. Now they have become a huge live organ depot for the purpose of extinguishing the belief, says the report.
The La Repubblica article states that the organ trade is a very lucrative business for China’s prison system. Mr. Matas believes that about one billion US dollars are circulating among different organ transplant centers and prisons that pick and supply organs from detainees.

The report says that the case in China is different: dealers work in professional hospitals, conduct the trade and kill prisoners of conscience on demand. There are no legal consequences due to the nationwide persecution of Falun Gong.
Mr. Matas and Mr. David Kilgour, a former Canadian diplomat and crown prosecutor, have concluded that 41,500 Falun Gong practitioners were subjected to forced organ harvesting between 2000 and 2005. Mr. Matas believes that the number is still increasing and that the CCP has kept the information more secret after they published the results of their investigation.
Matas Recommended that Italy Address the Legislative Gap regarding Organ Harvesting
At the Senate hearing, Mr. Matas recommended Italy to revise its laws to prohibit it from becoming an accomplice to the crimes of organ harvesting in China. The Italian Bioethics Committee reported the legislative gap in May 2013.
The European Parliament passed a resolution on December 12, calling on the Chinese government “to end immediately the practice of harvesting organs from prisoners of conscience and members of religious and ethnic minority groups.”
It states that phasing out the practice by 2015 “is not acceptable.” It also calls for the “immediate release” of all prisoners of conscience in China, including Falun Gong practitioners.
