(Clearwisdom.net) (Zhou Rong from Taipei, Taiwan) The Falun Gong Society at the Taiwan Superior Court held its first group exercises during lunchtime on October 15, 2009. The court staff enjoyed learning the five exercises from organizer Ms. Zhuang Huiping. She said that the society, which had been established and approved in mid-October, would provide staff members with another option for relieving work-related stress and improving physical and mental health.

Ms. Liu Lihua, another organizer of the society, has been practicing Falun Gong for six years. She started while she was helping a sick colleague find a cure for her illness. After practicing Falun Gong with the colleague, Ms. Liu was surprised to discover that her chronic back pain had disappeared and that stress no longer caused her to lose her temper with her children. Her entire family now practices Falun Gong. She said that the joy of good health was more precious to her than gold.

Ms. Zhuang and her parents have been practicing Falun Gong for many years. Before she began practicing, she had low energy, poor circulation, a pale complexion, and scoliosis. After practicing, however, her complexion gradually regained its color, and her back straightened as well. Some colleagues noticed her changes and asked her to teach them Falun Gong. She and Ms. Liu discussed how they could spread the word about the benefits of Falun Gong. Many colleagues actively supported them as they established the society, which they believed would benefit members of the court staff.

The Taiwan Superior Court quickly approved the Falun Gong Society as staff members anxiously waited. Human Resources Director Chen was involved in the approval process. He has great respect for the Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance principles of Falun Gong. He said that he had seen a rude and arrogant relative become courteous and considerate after practicing Falun Gong. Witnessing Falun Gong's power to enlighten people was an eye-opening experience for him.

The Taiwan Superior Court joins the Bureau of Foreign Trade, Taiwan Customs, the Taoyuan District Prosecutor's Office, and the Keelung City Police Bureau as the most recent Taiwanese government agency to have a Falun Gong Society.
