My son bangs to be an idiot for showing “skill of threading through the wall”

My name is Xiang Guizhi, a villager in Longkong Town, Jianwei County, Sichuan Province. My son Wang Shunian is 40 this year. As he had been obsessed with Falun Gong for a long period, he believed that he was under the protection of Li Hongzhi's Law Body. In March 2004, he banged on the wall to show "the skill of threading through the wall", but became an idiot for dashing too violently.

My husband died in the early year. Thanks for the relatives' help and a small business I brought my son up. He was a well-known carpenter in our town, and he was quite popular among the villagers for his honesty and skills. But he was quite self-contemptuous for his deformed leg, so he still lived alone at his thirties, which made him very annoyed.

In July 1998, my son heard that practicing Falun Gong could cure his leg. After watching the video tape of Li Hongzhi, he strengthened his belief in it. Since then, he had been devoted himself to practicing Falun Gong. He not only insisted on meditating and practicing every day, but also read Zhuan Falun carefully. He exchanged his ideas with other practitioners in the embankment of the back hill after supper every day, looking forward to eliminating karma, rising to a higher level and achieving Consummation.

Since he had been at senior high school, he always shared his original views with other practitioners clearly and logically, which made him greatly appreciated by them. They were all willing to ask him for advice when they had any question in practice. Gradually he became a leader in the team of practicing. My son hadn't done anything since then but invited his mates to practice together at night or recited "Falun Dafa is good", and "truthfulness, compassion and tolerance is good". We had been living in uptight circumstance again.

"Your leg hasn't got well since you practice Falun Gong. You may as well save some money to have an operation in the hospital," I tried to persuade him.

My son who had been always meek vented his anger on me, "I am the follower admitted by the Master. I have an outstanding gift and will rise to the heaven with the Master. The great day is at hand. You shouldn't try to hold me back."

Moreover, his mates usually came to our home to exchange views with him. My son had just said the Master planted Falun for him and at the next moment he said the Master asked him to kill a millenarian snake spirit…On hearing that I felt very ridiculous. But his practice-mates believed his words without any doubt. Later by irregular steps they invited my son to exert Gong to help them eliminate karma and rise to a higher level. My son increasingly believed that he had an extraordinary ability himself. He told me as soon as he returned, "Look! The Master has awarded Falun to me, asking them to invite me to exert Gong. I will rise to the heaven soon so long as I dove into practicing. By then I will take you with me." 

In July 1999, our country banned Falun Gong according to the law. I improved the occasion to advise him not to practice any more, but in vain. He went to the streets telling "the Truth" with his mates. Some kind-hearted neighbors advised him not to practice Falun Gong and to make a good life. He thought they were all demons called by the Master to test him. He took practicing Falun Gong and learning Fa as his whole life. He often didn't have meals and for being hungry he retched continuously. For long meditation, his leg got worse and worse. Finally he didn't go out, saying to me pleasantly that he was eliminating karma and he had risen to a higher level.

I was very worried when I saw that his temper was getting more and more eccentric and his physical condition was becoming worse and worse. However, I failed to persuade my stubborn son.

One day in March 2004, Liu Jian, who had often exchanged gains with my son before, told him that Falun Gong was deceitful. Liu Jian said that Li Hongzhi didn't help him even when appendicitis was almost killing him. Luckily, he was sent to the hospital and rescued in time. He advised my son not to practice any more.

My son went into a rage on the spot, "It's a pity that I should recommend you in front of the Master. You even cannot bear that test given by the Master. You are doomed not to achieve Consummation. In the past days the Master has taught me the skill of threading through the wall to kill demons. Now I have the Master's Law Body to protect my body, which has exorcised many demons. When I accomplish my charitable and pious deeds, I will rise to the heaven with the Master. You mustn't regret at that time."

Liu Jian expressed his suspicion with his head shaking and his lips curling. On seeing that my son got heated, saying "Falun Dafa is good", then banged his head on the wall. I didn't understand what had happened until I heard a sickening thud. Seeing the blood bleeding down his forehead, I quickly rushed over with Liu Jian. My son murmured a few words, "What's the matter? Can it not work?" and then he got faint.

Under the hospital's urgent rescue, my son was saved. But for a serious trauma in his head, he can only lead his life in dementia. Every time when I see my poor son I am heart-broken and filled with hatred…
