The Vegesacker Kid’s Festival
The Minghui International brochure entitled “We Celebrate 30 Years of Falun Dafa,” was published by Minghui.org during the World Falun Dafa Day celebrations on May 13 this year. It was available during the Vegesacker Kid’s Day event and was very well received by passersby.
Happy to See Falun Dafa Practitioners
A mother was happy to see practitioners, and she explained that she and her 10-year-old daughter met Falun Dafa practitioners in Stuttgart and practiced the exercises there a few times. She asked if there was a practice site in Bremen and was pleased to learn that there was a site at the city center. She was also told there was a family of practitioners in Bremen-North she could contact.
Deeper Meaning of Forbearance
A woman and her friend watched as practitioners demonstrated the exercises. She said, “Falun Dafa is good, and exactly what people need now, to grow spiritually. Therefore, this cultivation way (Falun Dafa) is especially valuable.” She said she was very much attracted by Falun Dafa’s principles, Zhen, Shan, Ren (Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance).
A practitioner explained, “Forbearance has a deeper meaning. It also means not to fight back when you are beaten or sworn at; to endure it when you are insulted, and not to respond with vengeance.” The woman was surprised and happy to hear this. She said these were exactly the principles she followed. She always wondered why she remained calm and did not react in the same manner, whenever she was insulted. She always felt that if she responded, the aggression of the other party would take control over her. The practitioner told her that her attitude was very good and counted already as internal cultivation. Even though this humble attitude is not popular in today’s modern society, and others might consider her a loser, this was exactly what practitioners strive for on their paths, to maintain a calm heart, whatever situation may occur.
The woman was very interested in Falun Dafa. As a farewell gift, the practitioner gave her a copy of Minghui International.
Background: What Is Falun Dafa?
Falun Dafa (also known as Falun Gong) was first introduced to the public by Mr. Li Hongzhi in Changchun, China, in 1992. The spiritual discipline is now practiced in over 100 countries and regions worldwide. Millions of people who have embraced the teachings—which are based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance—and learned the five exercises have experienced improved health and well-being.
