The 2001 Chicago Experience Sharing Conference started with an outdoor practice in the park across from the hotel. The weather was sunny and temperate as the day before. Approximately 1,000 people attended the conference. The conference highlighted a wide range of cultivation experiences, read by practitioners of all levels, ages and understandings. As each practitioner shared his or her cultivation experience and understanding, the audience was cultivating right along side. After each read their paper the applause was loud and sincere.

Those attending the Conference were fortunate to be able to hear Master's new article "Dafa is Indestructible", which added to the great cultivation experience that was being enjoyed by all. Later during the day some congratulations were read and the one from those practitioners who are validating Dafa in the severe environment of Shandong province moved many people to tears. An aide to a local politician specifically attended the conference to bestow congratulations and say some words in support of Dafa and Master.

At the end of the day, when the conference came to a close, many people spoke highly of how great all the activities and experiences were. Everyone felt that each person benefited significantly which made the conference a great success.
