(Clearwisdom.net) On December 10, 2008, Human Rights Day, practitioners in Greece raised awareness about cases of organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners in China. The information was exhibited in a pedestrian area in the center of Athens, near many universities.

Many young people who passed by were shocked to learn about all these abuses, but very interested to hear the story and support an end to the organ harvesting. They invited others to come and read the information and sign the petition too.

Falun Gong practitioners had an unexpected visit. First, a group of three Chinese people who came to read about the persecution and the infamous "self-immolation" incident on Tiananmen Square, which was quickly exposed as an elaborate and macabre hoax created by the Chinese Communist regime. Later, a Chinese woman came with a camera to record the practitioners' activity. Fortunately, all the individuals took the time to read the information.

Most people were shocked upon seeing practitioners' reenactment of organ harvesting, but understanding that this is happening now in China, they were able to calm their feelings of shock and express a wish to help. People took leaflets with gratitude and kindness and they were very concerned about the Falun Gong issue and organ harvesting.

''I can't understand why Falun Gong would be banned" said a student.
