Activities Across Europe

United Kingdom: "Falun Dafa in Great Britain Poster Exhibition" Is Held at the Cambridge Central Library
The Cambridge Central Library is always very supportive of Falun Gong. It has conducted a number of exhibitions related to Falun Gong, including the "Journey of Falun Dafa Photo Exhibition" and the "Celebrating World Falun Dafa Day Photo Exhibition".
Finland: An Appeal to End the Persecution in front of the Chinese Embassy
People passing by took information about the practice and persecution, and one man came and conducted an interview for a local radio. He wanted to help to stop the persecution and let more Finnish people know the truth nature of Falun Gong.
Persecution in China

Exposing the Crime of Daqing Forced Labour Camp: Murder of Innocent Dafa Practitioner
This time around the police changed their tactics, as they dragged He Huajiang to a single room first, and then began their vicious beating. That way if something should occur, nobody besides the perpetrator would have witnessed the incident, and after attaching a tall tale of a "heart attack", everything would be covered up.
Family is Broken Apart: Grandfather and Grandson Live in Hardship
I looked at this poor family, and a feeling that was hard to describe arose in my mind. I asked, "How do you live?" "We barely manage," he answered. I heard that since his son and daughter-in-law were kidnapped in 1999, they had no source of income. Even the grain supplied by the village was also taken away.
Solemn Declarations From Non-Practitioners
A "solemn declaration" is a person's public statement declaring that whatever he or she has done or said under duress or deception that was against Falun Dafa is null and void. As more and more people in China learn the truth about how they have been deceived and lied to by the Jiang regime, many people who don't practise Falun Gong are submitting "solemn declarations."
News and Media Reports

Reuters Reports on China's Human Rights in 2002
'China has implemented "highly repressive policies" in 2002, using the global war on terror and a pivotal Communist Party Congress as excuses to violate human rights, a U.S.-based rights watchdog said on Tuesday.'
Daily Times:Report about Article 23 in Hong Kong
'Heated exchanges between the authorities and opponents of the laws led many to believe that the devil is, indeed, in the details. What has emerged is an almost unanimous demand that the Tung government publish a detailed draft of the laws for one more round of consultation. The government, under intense pressure from Beijing to enact the blessed version, calls this unnecessary.'
Worldwide News and Activities

Traditional Art and Culture

Painting: Red Lotus
The Mysterious Little Swallow Pagoda
Today’s people have discovered that ancient builders observed the geological conditions in Xi'an, and constructed the pagoda’s foundation by tamping it into a hemisphere, which enabled the pressure from the quake to evenly disperse. The Little Swallow Pagoda is like a “tumbler” (a toy figure with its lower body resembling a hemisphere that wobbles but never falls), surviving more than 70 earthquakes and still standing as firm as a rock.
Righteous Thoughts and Actions

People Awaken to the Truth and the Power of Falun Gong
The doctor then asked her, what treatment she had received and what medicine she had been taking. She replied, "Nothing, I took no medicine." The doctor said: "If you did not receive any treatment the tumour cannot disappear by itself. Oh! I see. You must be secretly practising Falun Gong at home." The doctor continued to say: "You'd better go home and continue to practise your Falun Gong in secrecy. Your disease has been cured."
Short Stories Illustrating the Support for Falun Dafa among the People
An old man who delivers firewood said, "I can hardly believe it. How can it be against the law to practise exercises, cultivate one's body and mind, and be good people by following the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance? Like the old saying goes, 'The truth will come like a landslide. When the axe is sharp, the hard wood is nothing to be afraid of.'
Practitioners Exchange Experiences

My Trip to China
After washing and dressing, I headed towards Tiananmen Square... I selected a central spot, stood there and started doing one set of Falun Gong exercises. When I was about to leave after finishing the exercise, I heard a policeman yelling, "Stop. Don't go. Stop her over there. Don't let her go." Several policemen quickly surrounded me. I stood there and asked them in an upright manner: "What is the matter? What can I do for you?"
