Introducing Falun Dafa in Mexico City (Photos)

By Dafa Practitioners from the US

(Clearwisdom.net) On August 10, 2002, the first Mexico Falun Dafa Cultivation Experience Sharing Conference was held in Mexico City. The next day, Sunday, some practitioners from Taiwan, Houston and Canada, together with local practitioners, went to promote Falun Dafa at the Zocalo Square, the largest square in Central America and a popular tourist attraction. It just so happened that the Indians held a ceremony for offering sacrifice to their gods that day, and it attracted a large audience. We placed at the center of the square two banners imprinted with the words, "Urgently rescue Falun Gong practitioners being persecuted in China" and "Falun Dafa" in Spanish. As soon as we started doing the Falun Dafa exercises, many people came up to watch. Most people accepted our flyers and thanked us, and many people learned to practice the exercises on the spot. Some children also earnestly followed our movements. Within a few hours, thousands of Dafa flyers were distributed, and even the police accepted our flyers and read them. In the end, several boxes of flyers were exhausted, but people were still reluctant to leave. We deeply felt the yearning of the people of Mexico for Falun Dafa.

We had to leave the square to catch the night's flight. At the airport, before Taiwan practitioners boarded their flight, an airline employee was given a Dafa bookmark in Spanish. He turned it over and read out loud "Falun Dafa" with delight. We gave him more bookmarks and a flyer with information about local practice sites. He then happily passed out the bookmarks to his co-workers.
