The
article says that some diehard followers conveyed their exiled
master's idea by saying that the "mo gen" (the Devil's root)
is located at the ancient city gate tower of Tian'anmen Square.
They tricked devout practitioners by saying that if they want
to achieve an upper level of enlightenment to go into another
world, they have to go to Tian'anmen and ask for rights.
After
receiving the message, a crazy Falun Gong follower armed with
explosives went to the square, and was ready to ignite himself
on April 5, 2000. His deadly attempt was foiled by patrolling
police.
While
fanning anti-China flames abroad, Li sent another letter to
push his followers back into malignant protest endeavors.
In the letter "Beyond Endurance", Li dropped all disguise
of benevolence, which fills pages of his doctrine. He urged
his followers to abandon their hesitation, and make sacrifices
for their belief in Falun Gong.
Influenced
by their mothers, 19-year-old Chen Guo and 12-year-old Liu
Siying followed their evil master's order, and set their own
bodies ablaze in Tian'anmen Square.
The
person behind the tragedy is exactly the same person who advocated
"truth, benevolence, and forbearance", the article says.
The
article finally cautions readers that the fight against the
cult will be complicated, keen-edged and long. The Chinese
Government will fight the war to the end in a bid to safeguard
the reform and opening-up, the socialist modernization drive
and the hard-won social stability.
