By UK Practitioners

(Clearwisdom.net) April 20 was the eighteenth day of UK practitioners' relay hunger strike in front of the Chinese Embassy in London. It was also the second day of 24-hour round-the-clock sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the demons controlling the head of the evil.

Early in the morning, we arrived at the Chinese Embassy to set up twenty or so posters and banners, leaving plenty of space facing the gate for practitioners to sit and send forth righteous thoughts. At the top of every hour, we sent forth righteous thoughts. We distributed truth-clarifying materials in between. Time passed fast.

One scene was particularly touching. While we were sending forth righteous thoughts, a tall white man in a fine suit came to us. He pressed his hands against each other in front of his chest in Heshi, got down on his knees and kowtowed towards us. After that, he left without saying a word. We didn't know what he had seen or felt. His respect represented the support from UK people. During our round-the-clock sending righteous thoughts, many passersby and drivers expressed their support in many different ways. Many people said emotionally, "Falun Gong is so miraculous. We respect your devotion and amazing willpower. You certainly will succeed!"

At midnight, London was like a "city without night." There were still a lot of people and cars in the streets. Many practitioners from London and nearby cities came to the embassy to send forth righteous thoughts. When some practitioners who had worked until late in restaurants in other cities arrived, it was already 3 o'clock in the morning. The candlelight glistened in the cold wind and shone upon the firm and persistent faces of the practitioners. During the night, the practitioners sent forth righteous thoughts at the top of the hours. When the morning sunlight cast on our hunger strike practitioners who had not slept a minute during the night, we could see that they were still energetic and confident. We understand that by our actions we are making good our promises to the Teacher, sentient beings and ourselves from ages ago.
