(Clearwisdom.net) Guadalajara was the third city on our tour of Spain. After promoting Dafa in the crowded city centre in the morning, we went to a park in the afternoon. Originally it was extremely hot, but suddenly there was a thundershower. We thus moved to a pavilion in the park, and practiced the exercises there. A law school student we met in the morning when promoting the Fa came all the way to the park to learn the exercises, regardless of the rain. He attentively practiced all five sets of the exercises, and talked with us for quite a while. He mentioned that he has read many books about other cultivation practices, but he hasn't found what he really wanted and was delighted to hear about Falun Dafa today. He also said that he would read Zhuan Falun [the main text of Falun Gong] carefully when he got home.

When practitioners were demonstrating the sitting meditation exercise, we suddenly heard some mischievous noises around the pavilion. There were five Moroccan teenagers standing around the pavilion, watching us curiously. One of the practitioners stood up and walked over to them. After he handed them a flyer, he kindly suggested that they lower their voices and they then calmed down. After we had finished practicing the exercises, we found that the teenagers continued to stare at us. At that moment, the rain stopped and they walked over to us to express their desire to learn the exercises. Judging from their frivolous manner, we thought that they might have just been joking. As a result, we initially hesitated to teach them the exercises immediately, as we believed that they may be leaving shortly. Unexpectedly, they waited and as a result, two practitioners taught them the exercises. At first, they were not so serious, but later they became more attentive. What was most amazing is that while learning the fifth exercise, the one who seemed the most mischievous unexpectedly sat with his two legs crossed in the lotus position immediately and endured the pain until the music was finished. Seeing them learning the exercises attentively, our hearts were deeply touched.

We arrive the fifth stop of our tour--Valencia Practitioners promote the Fa and demonstrate the exercises in the beautiful coastal city of Valencia

Valencia is the third largest city in Spain and it is a beautiful city next to the Mediterranean Sea. This was the fifth stop on our tour. At dusk, we arrived at a beach where a lot of tourists gathered. The lingering light of the setting sun shone all over the scene, while the breeze was gently blowing. Sitting on a stone seat, an elderly Spanish person looked at the words "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" on our banners and the exhibition boards. Along with the gentle light of the setting sun, the scene was especially beautiful. Kind-hearted people in this turbulent world are yearning for the truth. This elderly man sincerely talked to a practitioner: people in modern society are searching for Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance.

Dafa's golden banners and posters, coupled with practitioners' elegant exercise demonstration, attracted many tourists of all different ages. Many of them hung around for a long time. Dafa's sacredness and dignity, as well as practitioners' compassion and peacefulness, touched their hearts. We heard continual praises. Many people were anxious to know more about Falun Dafa and took the initiative to ask for flyers. When accepting the flyers and looking at them, some people already knew about Dafa and uttered: "It's Falun Gong, very good!" Some of them also enquired about information on the free classes where they can learn the Dafa exercises.

We also came across some Chinese people. Most of them were very happy to accept our materials. When practitioners told them the facts about Falun Gong, at first two boys aged between twenty and thirty raised some very tricky questions. A practitioner patiently told them how the self-immolation incident in Tiananmen Square was staged by Jiang's regime to frame Dafa. They also told them the facts about the Zhongnanhai incident and the multinational Genocide lawsuits against Jiang Zemin, who is the prime culprit in the persecution of Falun Gong. Gradually, the obstacles in their thoughts were removed. Upon seeing so many western people practicing Falun Gong, they found it inconceivable. Their bad thoughts about Dafa were soon eliminated and they became very friendly. In addition to sincerely expressing sympathy and support for Dafa, both of them were also worried about our safety. Prior to their departure, they even expressed their willingness to sign their names on our signature books to appeal for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong. One of them, who used to be a monk, said that he would read Zhuan Falun after getting home.

Practitioners practicing and teaching the exercises in Valencia's musical park

On our second day in Valencia, we practiced the exercises together in a park. Several Spanish people, who met us at the beach and told us that they wanted to learn the exercises also made it to the park on time. They learned the five sets of exercises very seriously, and told us that they had already read from Zhuan Falun on a Falun Dafa website last night. On one hand, we were really delighted to see those who had predestined relationships obtain the Fa. On the other, we felt sorry for those who have a predestined relationship but haven't obtained the Fa, or even haven't heard of Dafa. There are still a lot of urgent tasks ahead of us; we should not slacken our efforts.
