(Minghui.org) Update: Group Exercise Schedule Increased Over the Weekend

 

For the convenience of fellow practitioners who have a busy work schedule, starting from this week, Minghui Radio via Satellite has increased the group exercise schedule over the weekend. Between 7:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. Beijing Time every Saturday, we will play the music of the five exercises consecutively. More fellow practitioners in Mainland China are welcome to join the group exercises, and take this as an opportunity to cultivate diligently, better validate the Fa and clarify the truth.

Sample Question and Feedback

 

Greetings, fellow editor practitioners.

 

We learned that Minghui Radio via Satellite plays exercise music every morning between 4:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.. This is truly great, and makes it convenient for Dafa disciples to do exercises at the same time. Thank you.

 

However, a portion of Dafa disciples do not have a radio to listen to the Minghui broadcast. They would like to know the sequence of the exercise music being played. This way, they will be able to do the exercises in synchronization with fellow practitioners.

 

In addition: Can we move the starting time for the exercises by five or ten minutes, which will not overlap with the sending of righteous thoughts. Thank you!

 

Reply from the Editorial Board:

 

After Minghui Radio has broadcast via satellite, we have gradually received some requirements and feedback from fellow practitioners in Mainland China (see above sample). As a result, the satellite broadcast of Minghui Radio has made adjustment to the weekend schedule since last weekend. The morning exercise schedule has changed from 4:00 a.m. - 6:00 a.m. early in the morning to 3:50 a.m. - 6:00 a.m. early in the morning. It lasts a total of 2 hours 10 minutes. The sequence remains the first, second, third, fourth and fifth exercises.

 

Detailed time line is as follows. The first, second, third, and fourth exercises start at 3:50, lasting an hour. At 4:50, we start the fifth exercise, the music of which lasts for 1 hour and 10 minutes, so that Dafa disciples can join sending righteous thoughts at set times around the world. Meanwhile, everyday audience will still be able to listen to the Minghui Radio broadcast at 6:00 a.m. normally.

 

Thanks to mainland practitioners' feedback and suggestions. Please share the info among each other, so that more fellow practitioners can join the group exercise everyday across China. (April 2, 2007)

 

Reference: Basic Information Regarding Satellite Broadcasting

 

I. Installation of Satellite Dishes (Commonly Called Little Ears)

Currently, the satellite broadcast covers a large area in China. Most places south of Liaoning Province and east of Gansu Province can use a 60-90cm Satellite dish (commonly called Little Ear). The program is not coded and can be received by most common receivers. Those which already receive the W5 Satellite signals can easily receive Minghui Radio by scanning the frequencies.

 

II. Installation of Receivers

1. Use speakers or a headphone as receiver: Make an in/out jack, solder the sound wire to the jack.

 

2. Listen directly with the headphone: Connect the sound output wire direct to the headphone.

 

3. Use a television set: This is the most straightforward approach. Use the sound output from the television for NTDTV programs for listening to exercise music. To conserve energy, brightness can be turned down or use a small screen black-and-white television.
