Sweden: "This is Exactly What I'm Looking For!" (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net) On September 24th, an annual cultural festival was held in Norrkoping, Sweden. Falun Gong practitioners were invited to take part. The practitioners introduced the practice with a demonstration of the Falun Gong exercises and let people know about the persecution through a poster exhibition and by making origami lotus flowers that people could take away with them.

The activity was held at a labour museum in the city centre, both indoors and outdoors. In the building were videos showing people how to learn the Falun Gong exercises and practitioners also taught them how to make lotus flowers from paper. Outdoors was an exercise demonstration and poster exhibition. Beautiful lotus flowers and graceful exercises deeply moved local residents and people came continuously.

A girl saw the exercise demonstration and said, "This is the very thing I am looking for!" She was so delighted upon learning that there is a practise site in the city. A lady even learned the exercises on the spot and two 9-year old boys learned the sitting meditation.

People really couldn't understand why the Chinese Communist Party would persecute Falun Gong after watching the peaceful exercises and poster exhibition. They signed their support on the petition in droves.


The indoor activity was from 11am to 5pm, while the outdoor exercise demonstration lasted until 11pm. On the day, a lot of people learned about Falun Gong, and joined voices all over the world calling for the end of this persecution.
