倆位我在北京認識的大法弟子，小琳和琴姐，來到廣州。
二十七歲的小琳是家庭主婦。迫害開始後她到天安門廣場煉功，結果被警察抓和施酷刑。出來不久她又去天安門煉功，結果又被抓和施酷刑。出來後她又去天安門……
她的商人丈夫大為震驚，「我真不明白法輪功怎麼能把你這麼柔弱的小女人變的這麼勇敢，為了維護法輪功願意捨棄這麼舒適的生活，把命都豁出去了！我得讀讀《轉法輪》！」
後來他讀了《轉法輪》，理解了妻子，也開始修煉大法並且到天安門廣場打出「法輪大法好！」的橫幅。
四十出頭的琴姐是一位大學老師。一九九九年十二月三十一日晚，萬名大法弟子在天安門廣場舉行和平集會時，琴姐也參加了。
她用數碼相機拍下了許多大法弟子在集會上打橫幅的很壯觀的照片，結果被警察發現、抓進天安門派出所。
在派出所一間小屋裡，警察連續毒打了她四個小時，要她供出誰給她的相機（那相機是一位海外弟子給她的）。
琴姐的全身被打腫、打變形，被抬出施刑室時連認識她多年的同修們都認不出她了，但琴姐始終沒有向警察說出誰給她的相機。
一被關進看守所，琴姐就和關在裡面的三百多位大法弟子一起絕食，抵制迫害。
看守所所長震驚的對大法弟子們說：「我一定要看看《轉法輪》！我要弄明白為什麼你們這些人為了法輪功坐牢也不怕，跟吃了蜜似的！」
小琳和琴姐到廣州後馬不停蹄的和廣州大法弟子交流她們抵制邪惡迫害、向民眾講真相的經驗。
交流地點有時在弟子家裡、有時在餐廳裡。參加的弟子全部用公用電話聯絡。因為警察的嚴密監控，大家有好幾次差點被抓。
小琳和琴姐剛走，又有幾位東北和北京的大法弟子南下到廣州交流。
從拘留所出來後，我經常參加這些北方－南方大法弟子間的交流。
師父的家鄉在中國大陸的東北，師父的傳法也是從東北和北京開始。迫害一開始，那裡就有眾多的大法弟子走出來維護大法。隨著他們不斷南下與廣東的大法弟子交流，越來越多的廣東大法弟子也勇敢的走出來維護大法。（待續）

Two fellow practitioners I had met in Beijing, Lin and Qin, came down to Guangzhou.
Twenty-seven-year-old Lin was a housewife. When the persecution began, she practiced Falun Gong in Tiananmen Square, and thus was arrested and tortured by the police. Upon release she practiced in Tiananmen Square again, and thus was arrested and tortured again. Upon release she went to Tiananmen Square again…
Her wealthy businessman husband was greatly shaken, “I really don’t understand how Falun Gong could make such a slight woman like you become so brave, willing to give up such a comfortable life and risk your life safeguarding Falun Gong! I’ve got to read Zhuan Falun!”
Later he read Zhuan Falun, came to understand his wife, began practicing Dafa too and held up a banner — “Falun Dafa is Good!” — in Tiananmen Square.
Qin was a college teacher in her forties. When over ten thousand Dafa practitioners held a peaceful rally in Tiananmen Square on the night of December 31, 1999, she participated in it too.
With a professional digital camera, Qin took many photos of the splendid scenes of Dafa practitioners holding up banners in the rally. Police detected her and took her to the Tiananmen Police Station.
In a small room in the police station, a policeman brutally beat her for four hours on end, forcing her to reveal who gave her the camera ( An overseas fellow practitioner gave it to her).
The beating made Qin’s entire body swell so severely even the fellow practitioners who had known her for years couldn’t recognize her when she was carried out of the torture room. Nevertheless Qin didn’t tell the police who gave her the camera.
As soon as she was put in jail, Qin started a hunger strike along with the three hundred Dafa practitioners detained there for resisting the persecution.
The shaken warden said to the Dafa practitioners, “I will definitely read Zhuan Falun! I’ve got to find out why you guys aren’t even scared of imprisonment for Falun Gong, as though you were eating honey!”
Upon arriving in Guangzhou, Lin and Qin unceasingly met with Guangzhou fellow practitioners, sharing their experiences of resisting the evil persecution and clarifying the truth to mainland Chinese.
The gatherings sometimes were held in practitioners’ homes and sometimes in restaurants. All of the practitioners attending the gatherings use public phones to contact each other. Due to the severe police watch, there were a few times we were within an inch of being arrested.
Soon after Lin and Qin left, several Northeastern and Beijing Dafa practitioners came down to Guangzhou to share their experiences too.
After getting out of the detention center I often attended this Northern-and–Southern fellow practitioners’ gatherings.
Master Li’s hometown was in the Northeast of mainland China, and Master Li’s spreading Dafa also started from the Northeast and Beijing; as soon as the persecution began, numerous Dafa practitioners there stepped forward to safeguard Dafa. As those Dafa practitioners kept coming down to the South to share their thoughts and experiences with the Dafa practitioners in Guangdong Province, more and more Guangdong Dafa practitioners stepped forward to safeguard Dafa bravely as well.
