(Clearwisdom.net) Practitioners of Falun Gong recently wrote mayors of many cities in Slovakia, explaining to them the reasons behind the persecution of Falun Gong in China, the number of victims of this persecution and cruel methods they use to torture practitioners of Falun Gong in China. Many mayors and people in local administrations reacted by signing our petition against the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Over 10 cities and villages showed their support.

Text of the petition:

Petition for support of human rights of Falun Gong practitioners in China intended for petition board of Slovak republic and United Nations

Whereas, Falun Gong as an exercise and discipline teaches man to live according to values of truthfulness, compassion and tolerance and therefore contributes to improvement of the society as a whole,

Whereas, Falun Gong supports good mental and physical health and helps to preserve traditional values of sincerity, persistence and selflessness,

Whereas, practitioners of Falun Gong in China have been subjected to inhuman persecution for 5 years, they are beaten, tortured and killed, in order to give up their belief.

I join the appeal for immediate stop of cruel persecution and torture of Falun Gong practitioners in China. Human values of truthfulness, compassion and tolerance are to be maintained in each country on Earth.
