(Minghui.org) Between July 30 and August 1, practitioners from Nagpur introduced Falun Dafa and the exercises to over twelve hundred students in two schools in Maharashtra. The faculty at the schools were very receptive to Falun Dafa, and the students reported that the practice was helpful for their mental and physical wellbeing.
Maharashtra is located in the western peninsular region of India. It is the second most populous state in India, and its capital city, Mumbai, is India’s financial capital and the country’s populous city.
Relaxation and Relief
Practitioners visited Jaihind Secondary and Higher Secondary School in Chalisgaon City on the morning of July 30th. They had contacted the principal, Mr. Khalane, the day before, about teaching the students the practice. They told him about Falun Dafa and Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, and about the brutal persecution launched by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in July 1999. The principal was supportive and invited them to come the very next day.
Over 350 students and teachers participated in the session. The practitioners first introduced Falun Dafa and explained that the practice cultivates one’s mind and body and is based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. They then demonstrated the first, second and fifth Falun Dafa exercises.

After doing the exercises, a sixth grader said that she had a fever that morning and didn’t feel well, but she felt better after she did the exercises.
“My stomach always hurts, but after doing the Falun Dafa exercises, my pain is gone,” said a fourth grade student.
When the exercise teaching session was over, the teachers asked practitioners if they could demonstrate the exercises to the 11th and 12th grade students, as they were unable to attend the session that day. Principal Khalane thanked practitioners and gave them a certificate of appreciation.
