Germany: Teachers and Students Try Out Falun Gong Together after Learning the Truth about the CCP Propaganda (Photos)

By a German practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) "Stretch" (Chen) -- teachers and students followed Ms. Teng's instruction and tried out the first Falun Gong exercise called "Buddha Showing a Thousand Hands." The atmosphere was very lively yet relaxed.

Students learn the Falun Gong exercises at the seminar

However just a year ago, deceived by the lies of the Chinese Communist regime, the principal of the school did not accept Falun Gong and turned down practitioners' offer to give a seminar on human rights in China. But lies never last long. With the sustained efforts of human rights activist Mr. Roemer and Falun Gong practitioners' truth clarification, the Werner-von-Siemenz School formally invited Falun Gong practitioners to give a seminar on China's human rights this past February. The school also cordially helped to organize this seminar.

Mr. Roemer from the International Human Rights Association first gave an opening speech. He summarized the serious human rights situation in China. He also told everyone his experience of traveling around major cities in China last autumn while wearing clothing with the words, "Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance are truly beautiful" printed on them. Mr. Roemer told students that he would have done nothing had he been afraid. Therefore, it is very important for a person to have a sense of justice and a heart of giving without any condition.

Ms. Teng: Can you imagine that people are being persecuted in China for doing this?

A film entitled, "The Truth of the Self-Immolation" followed Mr. Roemer's speech. This brought students' attention to the persecution of Falun Gong. They were very curious about what Falun Gong is and why Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist regime wanted to defame and persecute the practice. In addition, teachers and students were all very keen on learning the Falun Gong exercises. After learning the first exercise, quite a few students wanted to continue and learn the rest of the exercises.

After the exercise instruction, Ms. Teng told the students about the methods used by the Chinese Communist regime to persecute Falun Gong practitioners and gave more background information about the persecution. The students attentively listened to her talk. They were all very shocked by the degree of brutality of the persecution.

After the seminar, almost all the students in the class signed the petition calling for an end to the ongoing human rights abuses in China. As a momento of the seminar, everyone happily accepted a paper lotus flower with a Falun Gong bookmark.
