(Clearwisdom.net) On June 21, 2006, serene music could be heard playing
in the gymnasium of Bjerregrev School in the Danish town of Viborg. The teachers
and parents watched with amazement their usually noisy children sitting quietly
and doing the fifth exercise of Falun Gong, a sitting meditation.
We can see from the photos that many children were able to double-cross their
legs! Look at how peaceful the little boy sitting in the front was - he was
usually known to be a very naughty boy at school!
This is part of the school curriculum teaching about the Chinese culture. The
teachers invited Falun Gong practitioners to introduce the practice to the
children. Practitioners taught the exercises, described the popularity of the
practice around the world and explained the principles of Falun Gong -
Truthfulness-Compassion- Forbearance - to the children, and told them about
the brutal persecution that's happening in China.
In the following two weeks, the teachers would lead the schoolchildren to do
meditation for half an hour every day before classes began. They were amazed to
find that the children would become quiet when they meditated, whereas they were
usually very boisterous! The children liked it very much and they looked so
peaceful!
Many adult participants were also very interested. They asked for the
bookmarks which provided details of the Falun Dafa websites, and many expressed
an interest to learn the practice.
