Bearing Witness to History: A Historic Morning Practice Four Years Ago in Mudanjiang

Mudanjiang is a small town in Heilongjiang Province. On our Teacher's birthday after April 25, 1999, I went as usual to the Cultural Palace for morning practice. The palace was quiet and desolate. All the other people who usually came here to exercise or just hang out were absent. The situation felt strange. Fellow practitioners continued to arrive, and we exchanged our cultivation experiences on the spot, treasuring that moment. As the practice music started playing we stood up, lined up in careful rows, and started practicing. We felt immersed in the light of Dafa. We felt comfortable and happy. All the practitioners, whether 7 years old or 70 years old, had precise movements. We used the practice to celebrate our great Teacher's birthday and to celebrate the 7th anniversary of Dafa spreading in the human world.

Banners that read "Falun Dafa" were all over the practice site. We placed Dafa flyers and Fa-promotion flyers for people to read. The scene was solemn and holy. Under the morning sun, there were only practitioners meditating, and we saw no one else. Later we learned that many police officers had blocked and surrounded the palace. Others who had wanted to come to exercise or hang out didn't dare. We laughed at this matter. We said that this day's practice had been great and serene. After practicing, we went about our business and no one bothered us.
