(Clearwisdom.net) The Falun Gong photo exhibition held in the Wuerzburg Adult University on Muenz Street portrays a vivid contrast between peaceful exercises and barbaric persecution. These photos demonstrate how China persecutes and tortures the practitioners of this spiritual movement; people are being tortured to death or sent to labor camps. Among the imprisoned practitioners is Xiong Wei, a student of Berlin Industrial University. At this moment, German Falun Gong practitioners are putting a lot of effort into ensuring her release.

Apart from the photos exposing brutality, there are also photos revealing the elegance and beauty of Falun Gong and introducing its popularity around the world. There are many people practicing this cultivation system worldwide, which is composed of five sets of exercises and was introduced to the public by Mr. Li Hongzhi in China in 1992. The Wuerzburg practitioners organized this photo display with the support of the city's Cultural Bureau and it ends on April 11th.

"Falun Gong does not get involved in politics and is not a religion," stated one of the Falun Gong practitioners in Wuerzburg. The basic purpose of this spiritual movement is to teach one to be a good person at all times and live by the principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance". Now there are over 100 million people in over 60 countries practicing Falun Gong.

The Chairman of the Adult University in Wuerzburg emphasized that "Looking for a path to peace is particularly important in the modern world. Falun Gong reveals to us a righteous path to internal and external peace."

Four years ago [Jiang's regime] launched the persecution against Falun Gong. One of the practitioners in Wuerzburg said, "At first, the Chinese authorities responded positively to the spiritual practice because many practitioners suffering from chronic diseases regained their health through their cultivation."
