By a Ukrainian practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) From June 6th to June 9th 2004, Falun Gong practitioners held "The Path of Falun Gong" photo exhibition at the Country History Museum in the Ukrainian city of Boryspil. It showed how Falun Dafa has spread around the world and the peaceful resistance and rational opposition to the persecution taking place in China.

During the exhibition, practitioners also demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises in nearby streets and parks. They also distributed a lot of Falun Gong truth-clarification materials.

Teaching Falun Gong exercises

In the exhibition hall, practitioners introduced the exercises of Falun Gong and the principles of "Zhen (Truthfulness), Shan (Compassion), Ren (Forbearance)". They also taught children how to fold paper lotus flowers. Many people came to learn how to make the flowers. A boy who was regarded as very naughty also came to learn to make the lotus flowers. When the exhibition finished, he had made eight lotus flowers and was very quiet all along. It seemed that these holy and pure lotus flowers, which represent a noble character emerging unstained from the mud, awakened his pure and benevolent nature.

In the beginning, the museum leader gave us only three days for the exhibition. Later, because of the popularity and effectiveness of the photo exhibition and the peaceful nature of the practitioners, he agreed to extend the time in order to let more people know about Falun Dafa.
