(Clearwisdom.net) Since early summer of this year, Falun Gong practitioners in Sweden have been gathering at the Maritime Museum (Vasa museet), a famous tourist attraction in Stockholm, every Sunday, in order to promote Falun Gong and clarify the truth about the persecution in China. This spot has become a good place for people to come to understand Falun Gong as well as the truth of the persecution in China, as it always attracts a lot of local residents and foreign tourists.

"I finally realized the facts about Falun Gong today. Thank you."

On August 24, 2008, upon seeing Falun Gong practitioners practicing the exercises to the peaceful music on the lawn next to the Vasa museet, a young couple from China asked with curiosity, "Why are you practicing the exercises here?" A Falun Gong practitioner who is a graduate student replied, "The purpose of our practicing the exercises here is to let more people know that 'Falun Dafa is good.'"

In addition, he further explained how Falun Gong is popular in over 80 countries around the world, as well as the truth about the Chinese Communist regime's persecution of innocent practitioners in China. He also exposed the Chinese regime's atrocities of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners. Reminding them not to be deceived by the Chinese regime's lies, he said, "It is not easy for you to go overseas. But if you are able to take this opportunity to learn about Falun Gong and realize the intrinsic evil nature of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and not be deceived by the lies, it would definitely be worthwhile."

Both people accepted various Falun Gong informational materials and nodded their heads time and again, while saying "I understand." The man also happily said, "I often received some emails on this subject, and I finally know that everything that is mentioned in those emails is true. I had also received messages about the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party in the past and heard of the matter about the campaign to quit the CCP, but I didn't quite understand it. Today, I am fully clear about it. Thank you. I'll visit the museum first, and will talk to you again later."

A teenage Falun Gong practitioners' wish is to put an end to the persecution

Maomao is a twelve-year-old girl who went to the park to practice the Falun Gong exercises and participate in other activities there on Sunday along with her father. As Maomao started to practice Falun Gong when she was three, she can be regarded as a veteran practitioner. Despite the fact that she is only 12, she is a key member of the European Divine Land Marching Band. She is an all-round hand and can play several musical instruments. At first, she was the principle clarinet player, but it turned out that she played flute when the Band was invited to perform in the U.K. last time, as she was told that the Band needed a flute player at the last minute. In fact, she did a wonderful job.

Every Sunday, she was there along with her father and other fellow practitioners. She said that she was pleased to take time out of her schedule to be there on Sunday, as it can help more people understand the truth about Falun Gong. She was very serious about practicing the exercises there. At one time, she was only in thin clothes while it was drizzling, she stood still practicing the second set of the exercises seriously regardless of the rain. After finishing the exercises, some practitioners asked her if she was cold, but she said that she didn't feel cold at all. When a female practitioner felt her hands, they were very warm. In addition to practicing the exercises seriously, she looked inside when in conflicts, and was able to keep her high moral standards and not argue with others.

Generally speaking, most teenagers are inclined to focus on their own appearance and entertainment. But that is not Maomao's style. She mentioned that the words she has said most is "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are good. Don't be deceived by the CCP's lies."

Like other Falun Gong practitioners, Maomao has done her best to clarify the truth about Falun Gong to other people, and expose the Chinese regime's atrocities of persecuting Falun Gong practitioners, so as to end this nine-year-long persecution as soon as possible.
