(Clearwisdom.net) Renowned tenor Guan Guimin sang "Falun Shengwang"
at NTDTV's "Holiday Wonders" in New York. His song moved the audience
members and caused them to ponder deeply. Mr. He, a chemical engineer from New York,
said that his favorite part of the show was Guan Guimin's song. A medical doctor who came from Sri Lanka and currently lives in West Haven,
Connecticut brought his family and a doctor friend to New York to watch the
"Holiday Wonders" show on December 22. He described the show as great,
the best he's seen. He said that he agreed with the message of Guan's song, that
"mankind should cherish what Buddha did to offer salvation to
mankind." Elynna, a regular at the Beacon Theater,
stands up to cheer for Guan's song. Elynna is a regular at the Beacon Theater. She stood up and cheered for the
two tenors, Hong Ming and Guan Guimin, after they performed. Artyro Callegari, who teaches singing, said the sound of the two tenors was
extraordinary, "The songs make you feel good, especially those of the one
who sang last (Guan). I enjoyed this show. I have been to China but this show is
different from all the shows I have seen in China." Though the CCP continues to interfere and tries to stop the shows from taking
place, more and more people in China know about NTDTV's show. "NTDTV's show
is quite influential in Shanghai and the Communist Party can't stop it,"
said Zhang Enchong, a human rights lawyer who resides in Shanghai. After
watching previous NTDTV's New Year Galas on CD last year, Zheng said it was very
artistic and that he was surprised to see the famous singer Guan Guimin.
According to Zhang, Mr. Guan was a very famous singer in China, and most
middle-aged Chinese are familiar with him. Zheng always thought Guan had retired
because he hadn't seen him for a long time, "I was shocked to see him
perform that day. I didn't know he practices Falun Gong. He is a great
singer." Christine Walevska, an internationally
renowned cellist, praises Guan Guimin as a world class tenor. Guan Guimin and Bai Xue bow to the audience at the end of the
New York Holiday Wonders Show on December 19th. The song "Falun Shengwang" was written by Guan himself. Talking
about his experience of creating and performing the song, Guan said the lyrics
are based on his life experiences. Before he practiced Falun Gong, he studied
many Buddhist sutras. "I didn't really understand what was in the sutras. I
studied them like they were a type of knowledge, a concept. After I practiced
Falun Gong, my chronic illnesses went away and in the process, I realized that
many legends and stories, including those written on the Buddhist sutras, are
real." "I believe what is in the Buddhist Sutras are real. The
appearance of the Udumbara flowers in many temples in Korea and around the world
tells us the Holy Law Wheel King described in the sutras is teaching his Fa and
the prophecies from history are taking place. The Book of Revelations in the
Bible also convey a similar concept about the Lord of Lords. Hence I thought
about creating this song to share my understanding with the audience."
