New York, USA: The Principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance Survives Five Years of Persecution (Photos)


By Minghui Reporter Tang Feng

(Clearwisdom.net) On the evening of July 20, 2004, Falun Gong practitioners in the Great New York Area held a candle light vigil in front of the Chinese Consulate. Their banners in Chinese and English read, "The World Needs Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance," "Falun Dafa Is Great" and "Strongly Condemn Terrorism Act of Murder by Hired Gunmen" caught a lot of attention. In the past five years, one thousand and ten Falun Gong practitioners have lost their lives from the persecution. Falun Gong practitioners in New York gathered in front of the Chinese Consulate to mourn their fellow practitioners in China who had paid their lives for their faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. As overseas delegate of the Chinese government, the Chinese Consulate has been assisting the persecution by inciting hatred towards Falun Gong in the Chinese community. However, Falun Gong practitioners have always abided by their principles and kept distributing the truth with their noble forbearance. Their candle light vigil again showed their compassion and peacefulness to the world.

Over the past five years, Falun Gong has made the most magnificent and stirring history of the universe. When the overwhelming lies brainwashed the world, Falun Gong practitioners stepped forward one after another. They defended the truth with their lives, distributed the truth to every corner and saved the sentient beings without hesitation. Deceived by the propaganda, people treated Falun Gong practitioners with hatred, misunderstanding and fear. However, practitioners melted down their cold hatred with compassionate smiles. They didn't hold hatred in their hearts despite enduring brutal persecution. Instead, they resisted it with peacefulness, rationality and non-violent ways.

Today, the days are numbered for the evil. Falun Dafa practitioner's Truth-clarification activities of Falun Dafa practitioners are increasing. Falun Dafa has spread all over the world and Falun Gong practitioners' firmness, rationality, compassion and peacefulness, as demonstrated in the candle light vigil, indicate the irresistible force of justice will make a clean sweep of evil.
