(Clearwisdom.net) I'm honored to hold my painting exhibition in Tel Aviv in Israel and to clarify the truth to the Israeli people. Many people from all social circles visited the exhibition. The three exhibition halls were all packed.

The exhibition hall was very closed to the Chinese Embassy in Israel, making it easier for Chinese officials and media to come to know the truth. When they came and saw so many people attending, they were shocked. They saw the power of Dafa. During every exhibition, I hope the Chinese officials will come to know my experience of being persecuted so that they can help with a peaceful solution to China's human rights crisis. Before this exhibition, Dafa practitioners in Israel had sent invitations to major Israeli and Chinese media.

The deputy mayor of Tel Aviv gave opening remarks for the exhibition. He said: "It's a wonderful way to let people know you. Thank you for bring Chinese art here for the Israeli people..." Then I presented a painting to the mayor as a souvenir, as well as the precious book Zhuan Falun, and the mayor accepted them.

I am calling on the guests and reporters: Since Tel Aviv is a sister city of Beijing, people here should demand that the Chinese regime (and its leader, Jiang) stop the persecution against "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance!"

Yesterday, I went to the place where Jesus was crucified. As the tourists sadly looked at the instruments that tortured Jesus, people's hearts still can't stop bleeding. And today, when those people came to the painting exhibition and saw the brutal persecution and murder that Jiang's regime is conducting against the good people who believe in "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance," their hearts were bleeding too.

All kind-hearted people from China and abroad were shocked and they stayed a long time before leaving. Some of them learned the Falun Gong practices; some watched the truth-clarifying TV programs until 11:00pm. Although it was wintertime, the powerful energy in the exhibition hall made everybody feel very warm. Practitioners prepared hundreds of fresh flowers for the guests as gifts, wishing them a good future with a righteous understanding of Falun Dafa.
