(Clearwisdom.net) On April 21, 2007, Falun Gong practitioners in Aichi Province gathered at Sakae Hiroba Park in Nagoya to introduce Falun Gong, expose the eight years of cruel persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and commemorate the April 25th Appeal in 1999.
Practitioners do group exercise, introduce Falun Gong, and expose the persecution of Falun Gong at Sakae Hiroba Park in Nagoya.
Practitioners unfurled banners and set up display boards in Sakae Hiroba Park and did their exercises in a group. The park is located in a busy district. Passersby were able to see the banners and the exercises from far away. They took truth-clarification materials, read the display boards, and asked practitioners about the persecution. An older gentleman told a practitioner from China, "If excellent people like you become leaders of China in the future, China will be great!" The practitioner told him that Falun Gong practitioners were not against China, nor were they interested in power. They were only against the persecution and violation of human rights. They wished for the end to the persecution of innocent Falun Gong practitioners. Before he left, the gentleman encouraged the practitioners to press on.
A young man who happened to pass by on his bike stopped to take truth-clarification materials in English and asked for CDs. He said that he was from Algeria. He had seen Falun Gong when he was in Britain, and he wanted to learn more about it. The practitioners didn't have any CDs with them but they told him how to visit the website for more information. He thanked them and left satisfied.
Many Chinese were among the passersby. They didn't have the kind of resistance to Falun Dafa that they used to. You could tell from their faces. Two men from Tianjin read the display boards for a long while. Practitioners gave them "Nine Commentaries on Communist Party" and "Digging to China" DVDs, told them about quitting the CCP, the Communist Youth League and the Young Pioneers, asked them to spread the news to their families and friends, and wished them a bright future.
With a smile on her face, a lady from Seto City in her 50s approached a woman practitioner and said, "Please get some tea for yourself." As she talked, she stuck two thousand Yen in the practitioner's hands and left. The practitioner thought, "How can we accept other people's money?" She caught up with the lady to give her truth-clarification materials. The lady took the materials but refused to take back the money. She said, "I am very moved to see your great efforts! Please get some tea for yourself with the money!" Because of the lady's sincerity, the practitioner didn't refuse the money, but she decided to use it to print truth-clarification materials so that more people could learn the true story of Falun Gong. When everyone in the world learns the truth, their kind actions will bring them a bright future.
