By a practitioner from the Midwest

(Clearwisdom.net)

My boss has no problems with my practicing Falun Gong, but he did not understand why I took time off work to attend activities around the world. I told him that Falun Gong experience sharing conferences were very good. Almost every practitioner who is truly following the principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance" has a story of how they've improved their physical health and well-being. But he was still skeptical. I told him that practitioners like me are being forced to give up their belief in China or they would be persecuted, and some have been beaten to death. I told him that I must try my best to stop these injustices. He thought that China's dictator was so oppressive, how could our efforts help those being persecuted? I told him that if everyone in the world stands up to stop it, the evil could be vanquished. He still did not really understand.

This time during the trip to Geneva, I borrowed his camera and took some photos. After I came back I showed them to him. Looking at each dignified and sacred face in the photos, his heart was moved. He let me put the photos on company computer so that everyone could see them. He also asked everyone to look at the photos.

I know that I did not fully clarify the truth to him before, but the glorious images of each practitioner in the photos were the best way to clarify the truth to him.

The following are several groups of photos of Falun Gong practitioners in Geneva during the UN Human Rights Convention.
