(Clearwisdom.net) On Friday, November 12, 2004, it rained and the wind blew hard in Manhattan, New York, and it was piercingly cold. However, the bad weather did not deter Falun Gong practitioners from going out on the streets to clarify the truth about Falun Gong and the persecution occurring in China. The "Great Wall of Truth" in the rainstorm moved people. People could not help thinking about what Falun Gong is all about and why practitioners persist in clarifying the truth in such bad weather. A Chinese person who passes by the practitioners every day said to them, "I've already read through the book Zhuan Falun (1) twice. I felt that Falun Gong must be very special since so many people practice it. It's definitely not ordinary that so many people spare no efforts to appeal for an end to the persecution." Another businessperson who passed by every day whispered to a practitioner, "I've started practicing at home."
