Whereas, Falun Gong (also called Falun Dafa) is an ancient form of qigong, the practice of refining the body and mind through special exercises and meditation; and

Whereas, The people who practice Falun Dafa come from every imaginable walk of life, as Falun Dafa transcends cultural, social, economic, and national boundaries; and

Now, therefore, I Jed Ellis, Mayor of the City of Bluffton, Indiana, do hereby proclaim

May, 2005

as

Falun Dafa Month

in recognition of its contribution to better health, moral living, peace and happiness,
