North Carolina: Introducing Falun Dafa at the Asian Festival in Charlotte (Photos)
By practitioners from North Carolina
(Clearwisdom.net May 14, 2003) The annual Asian festival is an important
event in Charlotte. During the festival, Asian descendants,
including important officials, non-governmental organizations and even officials
from the closest Chinese Consulate come to join the celebration.
As usual, Falun Gong practitioners in North Carolina prepared in advance to
participate in the event. Many practitioners drove here from nearby cities ahead
of time. We have only one wish: Comprehensively clarify the truth to people and
let more people know about Falun Dafa.
The celebration started at 10 am. Some practitioners demonstrated the Falun
Gong exercises and others distributed truth-clarifying materials. The entire
booth was filled with a peaceful and solemn atmosphere. The temperature was as
high as 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Practitioners systematically organized
everything. When practitioners sat in lotus position and sent forth righteous
thoughts, a person at a neighboring booth who practiced another type of qigong
expressed that he did not understand it. Practitioners patiently explained it to
him and helped him to fix the problem with his power supply, which left a good
impression of Dafa on the people in that booth.
Practitioners also took the initiative to visit the Chinese Consulate's
booth, talk with the officials and help them to learn about Falun Dafa. This was
also the first time that practitioners clarified the truth face to face to
officials from the Chinese Consulate.
After the celebration, practitioners conducted a press conference outside the
City Hall and held a candlelight vigil.
From this activity, practitioners improved their understandings of the Fa.
