(Clearwisdom.net) A huge trade show was held in Hanover from March 15th until 21st, 2007. Falun Gong practitioners took advantage of the large numbers of visitors to their city to raise awareness about the crimes committed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), who persecute Falun Gong and trade in organs harvested from live Falun Gong practitioners.
People approach practitioners' booth to find out more and sign a petition against the persecution |
Due to the show, the streets were thronged with people. Among passers-by, there were many tourists, including those from mainland China. These Chinese tourists became the ones to whom Falun Gong practitioners would mainly expose the persecution to, because many of them listened to and believe the CCP state propaganda and slander about Falun Gong. It was an opportunity for them to learn the truth about Falun Gong and the 20,000,000 Chinese people who have quit the CCP. The great tide of quitting the CCP has resulted from the publication of the book “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party”, in which the evil nature of the CCP and atrocities it has committed to Chinese people under the role of its power are commented on and discussed in detail.
Practitioners provided Chinese tourists with leaflets and other materials so they could learn more. It was even more convenient for Falun Gong practitioners from China to talk, in Chinese, with their fellow people from mainland China.
Passers-by came in an endless stream. They wanted to learn more about the persecution of Falun Gong, especially details about the CCP removing organs from live Falun Gong practitioners. Then they signed the petition expressing their protest against the persecution and the atrocities.
An elderly lady came to the booth with tears running down her face and said that she could not bear to see it, a Falun Gong practitioner re-enacting the scene of being tortured ( A Falun Gong practitioner was tied up and caged, with a guard in uniform standing there.) Behind the booth, a banner told the facts of organ harvesting. She said that this was so inhuman that it reminded her of World War II, which she had experienced when she was young.
Another passer-by asked a practitioner a lot about specific evidence of removing organs from live people and, at the same time, also asked about how this had been treated by organizations like Amnesty International. He added that he had never heard and read about this matter. He felt that such a severe crime as removing organs from live people committed to such peaceful practitioners seemed unbelievable. Practitioners patiently clarified the truth to him.
At the same time, other practitioners were quietly demonstrating the exercises, which brought a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere. The peacefulness of Falun Gong contrasted sharply with the CCP’s madness and inhumanity. The man’s doubts and misgivings were eliminated slowly. Finally, he thanked the practitioner and expressed that he would discuss the matter with organizations of human rights.
While talking with a Falun Gong practitioner, another passer-by talked of the situation of Falun Gong spreading around the world, nearby was a woman who looked Asian. She said that she had happened to meet Falun Gong practitioners when she went to Hong Kong, which made her feel that Falun Gong is spreading all over the world.
A few teenage girls were watching the demonstration of the exercises with great interest. When a practitioner walked over, they asked her about the effect of the practice and asked if they could learn. The practitioner briefly told them about the marvelous effects of the exercises and some of her own experience. After that, the girls learned some of the exercises. They learned them very fast, with concentration and great interest.
Many people were indignant that German Government does not dare to condemn the condition of human rights under the role of the CCP regime out of its economic interests when they were talking with practitioners.
Many passers-by chatted with Falun Gong practitioners, even for a long time, learning the truth about Falun Gong and signing practitioners' petition calling for an end to the persecution.
