(Clearwisdom.net) Three years ago, Professor Hsiao Songshan of National Taiwan Ocean University (NTOU) in Keelung, Taiwan ran into health problems. He felt dizzy and couldn't sleep well. In the classroom, he often felt dizzy when turning his head after writing on the blackboard. He visited many doctors and hospitals, but none of them could diagnose the real cause. His health was declining day after day.

His elder brother who lived in mid Taiwan practiced Falun Gong and felt this exercise was very good. So he introduced Falun Gong to professor Hsiao. After Hsiao attended a nine-day-lecture session, he no longer needed the medicine for dizziness and insomnia. He continued to practice Falun Gong and study the Fa. Gradually, he changed completely. He slept well and was very energetic at work.

Hsiao's own experience convinced him that the principle of Falun Dafa "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance" is very good and he wished he could introduce it to more people. Once he talked about the "Water Crystal Experiment" done by a Japanese scientist. The experiment proved that goodwill can change substances. The students were amazed by this finding. At the end of last year, he read an article on the internet about how the "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance International Art Exhibition" has been circulating among universities and colleges in Taiwan. He thought that many people still didn't know about the Chinese Communist Party's persecution of Falun Gong and didn't know the beauty of Falun Dafa. So he wrote a proposal to host the art exhibit at NTOU to the chancellor. The chancellor confirmed the fruitful result of the Art Exhibition in dozens of other universities and agreed to hold this meaningful exhibition.

On June 20, many city government officials and elected representatives attended the opening ceremony and affirmed the value of the Art Exhibition and commended the Chinese practitioners' perseverance. Director of Keelung City Education Bureau Mr. Hsiao Jingli said in his speech that the art exhibition and "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance" could purify the mind and uplift the spirit. He also said that promoting the artworks can have a positive effect on the youth and lead them away from delinquent behavior. Many media reported the event. Chairman of Taiwan Falun Dafa Association Mr. Chang Qingxi accepted interviews from China TV and Keelung TV.

During the week-long exhibition, most of the visitors were shocked after witnessing the truth of the persecution. Strong emotions appeared on their faces. They were astonished that the Chinese Communist Party could be so cruel and vicious. One visitor said Falun Gong must have a special power that the practitioners can be so steadfast under such tortures, so he wanted to learn Falun Gong. One visitor said he was a Christian and he shared the experience of his friend who was illegally detained for three days while visiting Mainland China. Some people had learned Falun Gong before and quit. After they viewed the art exhibition, they said they wanted to cultivate again.
