Greetings, Master!
Greetings, fellow practitioners!
I'm a disciple from Romania. We had Shen Yun in 2008 and it was a great success. We had a full house in the theatre, a very pleased and enthusiastic audience, and the survey showed well over 90% of very satisfied viewers. The CCP was scared of this success in an ex-communist country so they stepped up their pressure and our government seemed to give in. In the years after that when we wanted to host Shen Yun, we had different kinds of interference from our own government.
So in this case what could we do to clarify the truth? We have Epoch Times in Romanian, we passed out flyers, we hosted the Zhen-Shen-Ren Art exhibition, etc...
Another such change appeared when we found out that this year from March to August there would be the Human Body exhibition, in the most prestigious National Arts Museum in Bucharest. Upon hearing this news we were initially rather unpleased with it, but did not know what we could do about it. With the compassionate arrangement of Master we had all kinds of signs that we needed to turn around this evil arrangement.
The unfolding of the evil
Initially the ones who organised the exhibition did a nationwide advertising campaign, saying in their message that this was an educational scientific exposition. In some of the media reports they did in fact recognise that the human bodies came from China, while claiming that they were unclaimed bodies.
Our understanding of this exposition
We know that the human body plastination factory is in Dalian near big labour camps. We know that the majority of people in the labour camps are Falun Dafa practitioners. We know that as Falun Dafa practitioners our bodies are being transformed from the microscopic to the surface of the body, cells are being gradually replaced with high energy matter, which in my limited understanding is divine matter. We know that humans are made in the image of Gods.
This then begs the question of, just how evil is it, to take a body in the image of a God, a body that has even started transformation into high-energy matter? After that body is killed for it's belief in the law of the universe, instead of having the body rest in peace and dignity, it is not only left naked, but also the skin is taken off, and plastic is poured into its cells, making huge profits in an industry that's worse than prostitution, by exploiting people’s craving for seeing demonic scenes?
Usually, people condemn the people who make money out of women who do prostitution. But here it is worse, because they don't even bother to keep the exploited person alive. And because, not only do they keep the body naked, but they also take the skin off and separate the muscles so that everything can be looked at in the greatest detail. I would also like to mention here that the visitors had no age restriction, so this morbid show was presented to kids of all ages.
I do believe that this is one of the worst insults that Gods can receive from humans. Yet, there are people ignorantly going to these exhibitions, paying for a ticket, funding a morbid industry that in the end pays the killer too.
How do people position themselves in this case? Since among those bodies there are Falun Dafa disciples, how do they position themselves to Falun Dafa? What will their future be if we don't clarify the truth to them?
The compassionate arrangements and our efforts to clarify the truth
There was a Christian organisation that voluntarily wrote an open letter, saying that it was outraged by the blatant violations that made this exhibition possible and in its letter cited an article from the Romanian Epoch Times. On the one hand, the fact that this letter was republished by the Romanian mass-media was encouraging to us. On the other hand, the fact that from that republished letter were missing the words “Epoch Times” confirmed to us again, that the ordinary media is not entitled to have any mighty virtue during Fa rectification.
In addition, two Romanian practitioners returned from Canada, and they helped us to realise how important was this chance for clarifying the truth, and they also helped us get the necessary permits and to organise our permanent presence in front of the Museum every day during these months.
We are about ten practitioners, so it is not easy to keep up Epoch Times, do a Zhen Shen Ren exhibition and to go to the Museum six days a week, for months, to hand out flyers, talk with people and collect signatures for over 4 months.
We managed to do it because there is a veteran practitioner who helps with the planning. She calls practitioners and makes sure that there are always at least two practitioners present.
To make our presence stand out, we had big wearable cardboard signs that said in big letters things like: "The corpses come from China. China executes political prisoners." and "Romanian have the right to know that the corpses come from executed political prisoners in China."
There were all kinds of people who used the chances we gave them in different ways. There were those who just passed by. These had the chance to see our posters and to understand that there are grave human rights violations in China. There where those who hurried and just took our flyers. These had the chance to know that Falun Gong is persecuted in China, that the CCP is evil, and if they wanted to know the truth they could go online and find out everything about the persecution and about Falun Dafa. There where some who stopped and listened to us. They had the chance to understand us and sign the petition to stop the exhibition, helping to restore the hurt dignity of the human body made in the image of the divine and helping to stop this morbid industry. There where also a few unfriendly people who tried to defend the exhibition in the name of science and education, who seemed on the surface to completely ignore the crimes committed, but even they would understand eventually that if we ignore now the source of the bodies, tomorrow the same thing can happen to him or to his family member, because if justice does not work now, then it will not work then either.
Overall we think that this event presented a good chance to clarify the facts about the evil Communist Party of China. To give a few numbers: the Museum reported that during this time there where about 60 thousand people visiting the exhibition. It is an interesting coincidence that we have also given out about 60 thousand flyers. Even more so, usually there were more than 10 people passing by until one took a flyer. This means that about 600 thousand people were able to see our signs, so they would know that there were crimes committed in China and this exposition was not as scientific as the media claimed it to be. Considering that they also talked with friends, I estimate that the number would add up to over 1 million people. It is also interesting to mention that all this was happening right across from the building of the Romanian government.
Collaborating with different organisations
There was a human rights organisation that started a petition for which we volunteered to gather signatures. There was the Christian organisation which agreed to sue the organisers. We would like to achieve the same result as in France where they banned the exhibition nationwide, confiscated and buried the bodies. We think that this is the only respectable action that we can make to bodies that were created in the image of the divine.
Cultivating while passing out flyers and clarifying the truth
While talking with people and clarifying the truth, I had a deeper and deeper realisation of the severity of the crimes committed. Seeing people who did not even take our flyers would not affect me on the surface but in my heart I started to condemn them. The more I condemned them in my heart the less they took my flyers.
This made me look within and think. Master came to the human world to save us and teaches us compassionately the Fa of the universe. Then in comparison how could I blame the people around me? I realised that my presence there was not for me to choose a better future for them, that choice they had to make by themselves. I was there only to offer them a chance to hear the truth, so that they could then have the possibility to choose a better future for themselves.
Thank you!
