San Francisco: Falun Gong Practitioners Celebrate World Falun Dafa Day (Photos)

May 18, 2011 |  

(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners from San Francisco have held all kinds of celebrations in the last week to celebrate the 12th World Falun Dafa and the 60th birthday of Master Li Hongzhi. On May 14, practitioners were assembled at Herman Plaza. They did group exercises, took a group photo, and paraded to Chinatown.

A magnificent banner proclaiming “World Falun Dafa Day” led the parade. The Divine Land Marching Band, made up of practitioners from northern California, played throughout the parade route. Following the band were practitioners demonstrating the exercises, a team of banners and flags, and a new float. Many people stopped to admire and applaud the procession and take pictures.

At the end of the parade—in Chinatown—the band performed again. Practitioners sang “Falun Dafa Is Good” and “Fa Rectifies Heaven and Earth” to bring the celebration to a close.
