(Clearwisdom.net) From March 13 to 17 2006, a five-day "Journey of Falun Dafa Photo Exhibition" was held in Civic Hall, Kumamoto City, Japan. The exhibition displayed 140 pictures provided by Falun Dafa practitioners from many countries. The exhibit illustrated the wide spread of Falun Dafa in the world, the Chinese Communist Party's brutal persecution of Falun Gong, and Falun Gong practitioners' peaceful actions against the persecution. It shows the battle between good and evil, righteousness and wickedness.

The displays moved an audience from all walks of life. Through these rare historical photos, they learned the beauty of Falun Dafa and understood the Chinese Communist Party's evil nature. People asked for introductory materials, truth-clarification materials, "Nine Commentaries on Communist Party", Falun Dafa bookmarks, as well as CDs of songs and music composed by Falun Gong practitioners.

On the first day of the exhibition, one elderly man viewed the pictures seriously for over one hour and asked many questions. A practitioner answered his questions. The man said he didn't know the truth of the persecution before. He was very happy to see so many moving art works today. Before he left, he said, "This photo exhibition is very good. I hope you will promote Falun Gong in Kumamoto City more. I support you."
There were a lot of visitors on the second day. The Falun Gong practitioners introduced the stories behind the photos and passed out many truth-clarification materials. A young lady looked at the picture of the Founder of Falun Dafa and said, "This gentleman has a magic energy field. My whole body feels like its being bounced away. It is surprising. It is unimaginable. I want to learn Falun Gong too." So a practitioner introduced her to a local teaching site.
A manager of a company drove 200 Kilometers to see the exhibit. He said, "The Chinese Communist Party even persecuted such a good thing, it is indeed very evil. Its end is coming. Even though the Communist Party is persecuting Falun Gong rampantly, I think Falun Gong is very good. I must cultivate diligently."
When a few Chinese students and their visiting parents saw the pictures of persecution, tears came down from their eyes. They said, "In China, we have no channel to know the truth. The Chinese communist party is using such cruel methods to torture kind and innocent Falun Gong practitioners. It is so ruthless." When they were leaving, they took truth-clarification materials and Nine commentaries on Communist Party.
During the five-day exhibition, visitors came in succession. The practitioners worked at the exhibition from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. to guide the tour and clarify the truth. It was tiring, but when they saw so many people who were once deceived by the CCP's propagandas learning the truth and some pre-destined people re-connecting their relationship to Dafa, practitioners felt very happy and relieved.
One practitioner said that the practitioners had contacted local newspapers and TV stations to clarify the truth before the exhibition. When these people learned the truth, a lot of reports and news appeared at important places in the newspaper and aired on TV. A large chain bookstore owner learned the truth. He started to sell the Japanese language version Zhuan Falun and Nine Commentaries on Communist Party in his store and put up the photo exhibition poster in his store to let more customers know about the exhibit.
