Saipan Island: "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" Float Leaves People With a Wonderful Impression (Photos) By Dafa practitioners in Saipan Island, USA
(Clearwisdom.net) The July 4th Independence Day Parade this
year in Saipan Island was the most spectacular parade in recent
years. There were more groups participating, more people watching and more
Chinese people. Dafa practitioners participated in the parade for the second
time. Two months prior to the parade, practitioners began to prepare a float and
dance performance. Without any dance background or professional guidance, the
practitioners choreographed the performance themselves and rehearsed every day
after work. The practitioners also designed and made their own costumes. Three male practitioners in golden exercise suits holding signs for
"Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" led the procession. Two of them were
practitioners from the Philippines and California. For both of them, it was
their first time to participate in a Dafa activity. Another practitioner was
from Kaohsiung in Taiwan, and his wife and son were also participating in the
parade. Following them were four female practitioners holding a banner with the
words "Falun Dafa is good." A beautiful Falun was embroidered on the golden
banner. Eight practitioners were behind them and danced along the parade route.
They won warm applause from the audience. The beautifully decorated float
followed the dance group. On the float, there was a large hand-made lotus
flower, and a model of Zhuan Falun was placed in the middle of it,
shining brilliantly in the sun. Three practitioners demonstrated the fifth
exercise under it. On the float's golden banner were the three Chinese
characters for "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." Behind the float were more
than a dozen practitioners from Taiwan in bright yellow Dafa T-shirts. They
walked along the parade to distribute Dafa flyers and truth-clarifying flyers to
people watching the parade. They also presented children with pens with Dafa
website addresses on them. The practitioners also performed Falun Gong's
standing exercises for the spectators during the parade. The Dafa practitioners' procession left a wonderful impression on the
spectators. Many Chinese people who didn't seen the parade last year were
amazed. Posting date: 7/11/2003
