Sweden: People in Orebro Condemn the Persecution of Falun Gong (Photos)

By a Swedish practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) On the 21st and 22nd of October, a seminar and an exhibition entitled the "World Uniting Show," was held in the People’s Hall of Orebro, Sweden. Participants included the Orebro ABF Organization, the Association for Supporting Human Rights in China, the Swedish Falun Gong Association and the Youth Association of the Red Cross.

The Falun Gong stall was assigned to a prominent location near to the stage. Many people came to the stall to learn about the persecution of Falun Gong in China and also about the practice of Falun Gong. When hearing about how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been harvesting organs from living practitioners to sell for vast profits, many people immediately signed a petition calling for an end to the atrocities.

At noon on October 21st, the Association for Supporting Human Rights in China held a seminar on human rights in China. Two members of the association reviewed a series of human rights calamities that the CCP has imposed on the Chinese people since it came into power in 1949. In particular, they quoted some findings from the report authored by David Matas and David Kilgour, who concluded that the CCP has been harvesting Falun Gong practitioners' organs for profit.

Seminar on human rights in China

During the discussion session, a Christian who escaped from China revealed the suffering of Christians at the hands of the CCP. He pointed out that churches controlled by the CCP authorities are just a political tool of the Communist Party. If Christians voluntarily hold their own religious activities, they will be cruelly suppressed by the CCP.

After hearing about how the CCP seizes organs from living persons, a gentleman showed great concern over what the Swedish government should do about it. Some people asked why so many people in China persist in practicing Falun Gong despite such a brutal persecution. A practitioner who was tortured in a labor camp in China told the participants about the benefits many people have received from practicing Falun Gong, and why one hundred million people choose to live by the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance.
