Denmark: Teaching the Exercises at a Health Expo in Copenhagen

On February 3-5, 2017, practitioners from Denmark and Sweden participated in the “Body-Mind-Spirit” health expo in Copenhagen.

More than two hundred groups and enterprises participated in the expo, and 115 talks were given during the three days.

Practitioners played the exercise instruction video at their booth, demonstrated the exercises, and handed out brochures.

One woman resonated with the core principles of Falun Gong, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. “We all need this,” she said, pointing to the three words on the bookmark with an attached origami lotus flower that she had just received. “I will hang it up at my desk so that I can remind myself to follow these principles.”

At the practitioners' booth was a sign-up sheet for a free nine-day Falun Dafa workshop. In two days, dozens of people had signed up.

Practitioners held a seminar on the first day, providing an overview of the practice and demonstrating the exercises. Some of attendees said that they felt a strong energy flow while trying out the exercises. A number of people bought copies of Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Gong.

After hearing about the persecution in China, one man commented that Falun Gong must be good if it is being persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party.

“This is what I need,” said Jette from Brønby, after watching the presentation. She had first heard about Falun Gong when she saw the Shen Yun show in Aarhus, Denmark, last year.

Jesper Nobel said: “If a group scares the communist party, this group has [positive] energy.”
