On the 30th of December 2004, a Falun Gong experience sharing conference was held by the German Falun Gong Association in Erbach. Over two hundred practitioners from Germany and the German-speaking areas of Switzerland and Austria attended the conference. Experience sharing articles were read by five practitioners and a group of practitioners who work on the same project to expose the persecution happening in China.

A western practitioner shared his experiences of going to Manhattan twice to join in the large-scale efforts to raise awareness about the persecution. He felt that this was a special historical period and he could really see how narrow the path is that practitioners need to walk: even deviating a little can cause huge damage. This cannot be felt in a normal environment, but is very obvious in Manhattan where the requirement for practitioners is very high.

Another practitioner talked about the obstructions she faced in the procedure of applying to hold an activity. She realised that it can cause difficulties to the activity if practitioners rely on other people too much. A practitioner also shared his experience of how to follow the requirement of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, be brave to correct the mistakes he made and deny the old force’s arrangements with righteous thoughts and actions. His talk made many practitioners cry.


A practitioner who works in the field of art gave a talk which left a deep impression on others. He started drawing at the age of thirteen and had strict training. He believed art should give people wonderfulness and hope, but was very disappointed for many years because he was not keen on the direction art was taking, which led to him stopping drawing for nearly a year. He said: “After reading Master’s talk on "Teaching the Fa at the Discussion on Creating Fine Art’, I was really shocked. I finally realised the path I should walk and continue to walk: The road of creating fine art, creating works of beauty to praise the Gods. It seems simple but I spent such a long time discovering it. I am glad that I has walked out of a dangerous situation, and made myself righteous to walk the path Master points out for us. The righteous way we practitioners walk will also be left for people in the future.”

Five practitioners who were involved in a German newspaper project shared their understanding of the project and how to deal with the relationships between family and work, Fa study, doing exercises, sending righteous thoughts and other truth clarification activities.
