"Zhen, Shan, Ren" -- Stories from a Top High School in Taiwan (Photo)

June 07, 2004 |   By Dafa practitioners in Taiwan

(Clearwisdom.net) Taibei City's Jianguo High School, which has nurtured and educated many outstanding members of society, including Nobel Prize winners, has long been a top high school in Taiwan.


Large "Zhen Shan Ren" Characters Decorate the Classroom

Many teachers in the school have become Falun Dafa practitioners, giving the students the opportunity to come into contact with Dafa and then begin to practice themselves. Two of the school's three art teachers are Falun Gong practitioners. Their classrooms feature many Falun Gong books as well as truth-clarifying materials about the persecution in Mainland China. They have also posted many colorful pictures about Dafa. The students often stop by to have a look at these materials.

As a result of this positive influence, one senior in the gifted class began practicing Dafa and became a firm practitioner. He often introduced Falun Gong to his classmates and teachers by sharing his own experiences of the physical and spiritual benefits he received from practicing Falun Gong.

As his entry in a classroom decoration competition, this student posted the Chinese characters "Zhen, Shan, Ren" ("Truthfulness, Benevolence, Forbearance") on the front bulletin board and was awarded first prize. The following semester he drew a lotus flower and the characters, "Zhen, Shan, Ren." He would often write a Falun Dafa poem on the blackboard, which was appreciated by all his classmates. Recently, in order to establish a Falun Gong student organization at the school, he collected signatures from his classmates, who were very supportive of his efforts.

These high school teachers and students can freely study and practice Falun Gong. In Mainland China, however, Falun Gong practitioners who persist in their beliefs suffer brutal persecution. Jiang's regime has fabricated lies that have turned many Chinese people against Falun Gong. He has also tried to force teachers and students to give up their belief by depriving them of their jobs and their right to attend school. What a contrast!
