Photo Exhibition: "Falun Dafa Disciples Validating the Fa" in Yunlin

The photo exhibition, "Falun Dafa Disciples Validating the Fa" received warm feedback during its tour around Taiwan. This exhibition opened in the Yongguang Agriculture Center of Gukeng Agriculture Association, Yunlin County. The one hundred forty photos in the exhibition captured historic moments showing the benefits of Falun Dafa and showed the facts of the persecution. A chorus performed to call for support in rescuing Falun Gong children orphaned by the persecution in China. Crowds of people stopped by the exhibition and watched the performance. The exhibition lasted sixteen days.

According to the sponsor of the exhibition, Falun Gong has spread in more than seventy countries and areas since it was introduced in 1992. One hundred million people practice Falun Gong. The Chinese Communist Party ordered the suppression of Falun Gong on July 20, 1999. Falun Gong practitioners around the world have been supporting their fellow practitioners who are under persecution in China. Falun Gong's peaceful appeals to end the persecution over the past six years have garnered worldwide attention.

The themes of the photo exhibition are the "Benefits of Falun Dafa" and "Facts of the Persecution." There is a moving story behind every photograph. Many kind people who viewed the exhibit were touched and showed their concern. The brutal and inhuman persecution still continues. The photo exhibition hopes to awaken people's conscience and sense of justice.

A charity sale and music and dance performances were held concurrently to rescue children of persecuted Falun Gong practitioners in China. Young practitioners dressed in beautiful dance costumes distributed postcards and told people about the persecution. They told how Falun Gong practitioners' children were forced to leave their schools or homes and were subjected to discrimination in Mainland China. The children asked the audience to please help them come to this free county and help them get the care they deserve.

The art exhibit included music created by Falun Gong practitioners, a chorus, dance performances and Chinese classic art. The audience rewarded practitioners with warm applause. Crowds of people learned of the beauty of Falun Gong through the practitioners' performances.
