(Clearwisdom.net) On September 12, Falun Gong practitioners from St.
Louis, Missouri went to Southern Illinois University to teach the exercises,
spread the Fa and clarify the truth.
Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville held an activity called
"Eleven Days of Peace." The university invited different groups to
introduce methods to obtain peace in the heart. Falun Gong practitioners were
also invited. One of the organizers said that the reason they invited the Falun
Gong practitioners was because they wanted to show students how people obtain
peace and tranquility in different cultures. She said that since they have a
very good relationship with the Falun Gong group, they wanted to invite
practitioners to attend the activity and also give students an opportunity to
learn about Falun Gong.
Practitioners have held several activities at Southern Illinois University,
including the "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" Art Exhibition and
events to expose the persecution of Falun Gong in China, so many students
already knew about Falun Gong. In this activity, practitioners introduced the
exercises and the principles of Falun Dafa. Many students were interested in
learning. Some students who learned the exercises said that they really liked it
and felt relaxed after practicing the movements.
During the four-hour activity, many people left their contact information
with practitioners. Practitioners will conduct a free workshop to teach the
exercises over the weekend. They also passed out more than one thousand
newspapers, flyers and bookmarks so that students and teachers at Southern
Illinois University could better understand and appreciate the beauty of Falun
Dafa.
