Proclamation

Whereas, Falun Dafa is an advanced exercise and meditation practice of mind, body, and spirit based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance; and

Whereas, since its public introduction by Mr. Li Hongzhi in 1992, Falun Dafa brought health and peace of mind to over 100 million people on six continents; and

Whereas, Falun Dafa transcends cultural and racial boundaries and contributes to the universal dream of a peaceful, tolerant, and more compassionate society; and

Whereas, more men and women of Minnesota are learning the practice and purifying their hearts, energizing their bodies, and embracing peaceful, virtuous communities; and

Whereas, Falun Dafa emphasizes a holistic approach to health that includes the cultivation of one's moral character by following the universe's benevolent characteristic of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, as well as practicing gentle qigong exercises; and

Whereas, Falun Dafa practitioners' determination and courage to stand up for Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, while facing severe persecution from the Chinese Communist Party, has shown the world the value of life and the preciousness of human dignity;

Now, Therefore, I, Christopher B. Coleman, Mayor of the City of Saint Paul, do hereby proclaim the month of May 2007 to be

Falun Dafa Month
