Russia: Practitioners Celebrate World Falun Dafa Day in Moscow's Forest Park (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net) On May 15, 2005, Falun Dafa practitioners in Moscow held an activity to celebrate the Sixth World Falun Dafa Day. Although the activity was short, it was rich in content. There were plenty of people around because it was Saturday and many people participated in our activity from beginning to end. They also recorded the historical sight with cameras and video recorders. Two hours passed very fast, yet many touching stories took place and we will always remember them.

Introducing Dafa and sharing cultivation experiences

All the activities, including the exercise demonstrations, dance performances and waist drumming, were performed by western practitioners. They had put in a lot of practice to get their performances up to standard. When they presented their performance to the Russian audience, many said, "This is Chinese culture and it is good." One senior citizen liked the lotus dance so much that he videoed it twice.

Display boards were placed on the two sides of the site where the activity took place and they attracted many people to stop and look. Two senior citizens and their grandchildren asked why the people in the photos were being persecuted. Practitioners told them that Falun Gong is warmly received in Russia and the world but is suppressed in China. They found it hard to believe that something so good and peaceful could be treated so cruelly.
