Germany: Minghui School Starts a New Term (Photos)

January 13, 2008 |   By a practitioner from Germany

(Clearwisdom.net) When the door of the Minghui School opened, the first thing I saw was a group of boys holding the book Zhuan Falun and reading Lunyu. On the other side a group of girls folded paper lotus flowers, while some younger children were learning to recite poems from Hongyin and some teachers were teaching them patiently. This familiar scene was from the German Minghui School, which is held at the end of each year when Falun Gong practitioners have a cultivation experience sharing conference.

At the end of December 2007, some young Falun Gong practitioners took part in the Minghui School, and some were returning students from the previous year. Because the practitioners are relatively spread out, it is hard for young practitioners to get together, so they look forward to attending Minghui School and seeing each other to share experiences. They are diligent practitioners in their own right, actively participating in parades, the playing in Divine Land Marching Bands, and passing out truth-clarifying fliers.

Edith, the head teacher at the Minghui School, said that this year they broke up the kids into age groups. Because of her responsibilities at the school, she often could not participate in experience sharing with other practitioners. However, she said that because the children's hearts are so pure, she found a lot of inspiration from them and felt that Teacher has been helping her all along the way. In this way, she has able to elevate her xinxing steadily.

At a New Year's Eve gathering, older children recited or read Lunyu aloud, while younger ones recited "Falun World" from Hongyin. Shanshan, an eight-year-old student, played "Falun Dafa Is Good" on the piano.
