By a Dafa practitioner in UK
(Clearwisdom.net, March 15, 2004) On February 28 2004, several Falun
Gong practitioners arrived in Swansea, a city located on the southwestern shore
of the United Kingdom, to demonstrate Falun Gong exercises on the busy streets.
The weather was sunny and beautiful, and a lot of people milled around the city.
When they saw Dafa practitioners, many of them came over and asked for flyers.
Some people stood and stared at practitioners' exercises. The people who came to
learn Falun Gong exercises arrived in groups one after another. A middle-aged
man read the information boards for more than 20 minutes. After he finished, he
earnestly explained the contents of the information boards and also introduced
Falun Gong to newcomers. On March 6, practitioners held an activity in Bath, a famous tourist city.
Many tourist groups from all over the world stopped to watch our exercises when
they walked by our practice site. Some of them picked up cameras to take
pictures. They did not start to leave until the tour guide reminded them it was
time to move on. The backgrounds of the people were all different, including local residents,
foreign tourist groups, religious people, the regional representative of Amnesty
International, etc. Some people came to the exhibition booth to browse through
Dafa's books and truth-clarifying materials. They also asked where the books
could be purchased. Many Chinese people saw the banners and the exercise
demonstration when they passed by. They also received materials exposing what's
really happening to Falun Gong practitioners in China. Through promoting Dafa over these two weekends, practitioners deeply
comprehended how eager people are to understand Dafa. By utilizing more
opportunities to demonstrate Falun Gong exercises and promote Dafa on the
streets, practitioners hope people can see the wide spreading of Dafa all over
the world, and provide more opportunities for them to find Dafa, cultivate Dafa
and realize the truth. Source: http://clearharmony.net/articles/200403/18423.html
