"Blesk" Moravia (Czech Republic): In the Czech Street They Demonstrated Chinese Exercise

10 August 2001

Brno: An unusual sight was available yesterday to the people who passed through the Czech Street in the heart of the Moravian metropolis. There was a public demonstration of the Chinese practice of Falun Gong (Falun Dafa) by four yellow clad adherents of that ancient method of "refining and uniting body, mind and spirit."

"We have traveled from England to help our friends in Brno to publicly and freely demonstrate the exercises of Falun Gong and its spiritual practice. The teaching of Falun Dafa was made public by Master Li Hongzhi in 1992 in China and very soon it spread throughout the country. The year before last Falun Dafa was placed outside the law, 50 thousand adherents were imprisoned in concentration camps and 267 people were already tortured to death by the Chinese dictatorship!" told Blesk one of the followers Czecho-englishman Zek Halu. According to him people who are interested can find out further details from www.falundafa.org or telephone [phone]
