On December 1, Teacher's talk (on Minghui) "Eliminate the Evil" was published and practitioners thus came to a deeper understanding of how important it is to expose and suffocate the evil, as well as to Hongfa (spread Dafa) with benevolence and offer salvation to the human beings. At 10am on December 1, over 20 practitioners from the Bay area of San Francisco once again gathered in front of the Chinese Consulate to appeal. Some practitioners began to do the exercises while others began to distribute Dafa materials. After finishing the exercises, practitioners passed around Teacher's talk "Eliminate the Evil". At 2:40pm, a practitioner happened to look up, he was surprised to see a huge Falun in the sky, which was really a magnificent scene. Other practitioners also saw a huge Falun next to the sun. The Falun was radiating colorful beams of light and three small yellow Falun emblems were surrounding this Falun. A practitioner whose Tianmu has been opened noticed that the sun was red and it had a "
" spinning in the middle. The whole scene lasted for more than 10 minutes. Each of us felt very inspired and we all hoped that we could take every step well and wholeheartedly embrace the day when Fa rectifies the human world.
Since New York Fa conference, we realized we were lagging behind other areas in terms of Hongfa. Teacher's speech at the Western Fa conference made us more clear-minded. We have been appealing in front of the Chinese Consulate from Monday to Friday ever since the Werstern Fa conference. The spot across from the Consulate has already become our practice site and Hongfa location. Everyday we display more then 10 big photographs, exposing the truth about Jiang Zemin's persecution of Falun Gong. The policemen in charge of security come to see our photo exhibit everyday. They said that they have never seen such a peaceful appeal. The nearby American residents also come to join our group practice and they told us "You are too benevolent. If we were you, we would have fought with them." The Chinese Consulate also felt the increasing pressure. One day, a staff member from the Consulate came up to us and said, "Your daily appeal in front of the Consulate is disgracing the Chinese government." We replied: "Jiang Zemin's persecution of Falun Gong is indeed disgracing the Chinese government. We will keep coming here to appeal until one day Jiang stops his slander and persecution of Falun Gong."
The appeal ended at 3pm that day. However, everyone was clear that we would keep appealing so long as the persecution continued.
