(Clearwisdom.net) When Dafa is spreading everywhere, all the Heavens celebrate together. On May 15th, Belgian Dafa disciples came to Antwerp to celebrate the fifth World Falun Dafa Day and the twelfth anniversary of the public introduction of Falun Dafa. The location was beside a busy shopping street. When we unfurled banners and began to practice the exercises many people came right away, attracted by the graceful and peaceful movements.
A lot of people came looking for materials that explained the facts of the persecution, and several practitioners could not keep up with the demand. Dutch, French, English and Chinese materials were all distributed. People came one after another to ask how to practice the exercises and the locations of the exercise sites. Dutch practitioners brought lilies and handmade lotus flowers to give to those children who crowded around to watch the demonstration of the exercises.
There were Chinese people passing by throughout the day. When they saw the Falun Gong practitioners practicing the exercises, most accepted the materials and listened to the introductions by Chinese and Western practitioners. A Chinese student learning music in Belgium developed more respect for Falun Gong after a Chinese practitioner's kindly and thorough explanation about the situation that was rational and contained good examples. In addition, Western practitioners talked about their own cultivation experiences, after listening to them the student thoroughly changed his impression of Falun Gong which had been formed by listening to the propaganda and fabrications widely circulated by the Chinese government. He stated he would like to further understand the situation about practicing the exercises.

It is such a blessing when Chinese people come to understand the truth of Falun Gong. They gladly accepted our materials about Falun Gong. Some of the locally born Chinese could not read Chinese, but they expressed they would bring them to their parents. Some of them told us they were on our side.
A man who came over to take pictures said to a practitioner, "Not only is the scene of practicing exercises beautiful, but the messages to the public are wonderful."
