May 13 was the 23rd anniversary of World Falun Dafa Day, and it is also the 30th anniversary of Master’s Li’s first public introduction of Falun Dafa to the world’s people. Practitioners gathered and wished Master Li a Happy Birthday! They are grateful for Master’s teaching them the universal principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.

Returning to a Normal Life
More than two years after the COVID-19 pandemic started, Denmark has finally resumed a normal life. The Danish government has decided to lift mask restrictions, and halt vaccination programs and COVID testing. Copenhagen’s city center was bustling with people, and residents enjoyed the regained freedom.

Practitioners set up information booths and played calming exercise music at the city’s center. Some practitioners began demonstrating Falun Dafa’s exercises, while others distributed truth-clarification materials and greeted passersby.

The peaceful scene drew many people to inquire more about Falun Dafa. Practitioners held extensive discussions with passersby, as they were interested in finding out more about Falun Dafa. Some held truth-clarification materials in their hands and said, “I will spend more time learning about Falun Dafa by visiting Dafa’s informational website! I think it is very interesting!”

Steffen Hopes for People to Learn About and Accept Falun Dafa
Steffen, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Denmark, clearly remembered how happy he was when he first encountered Falun Dafa. He said, “Just when I was seeking a philosophy or way of thinking that could help solve the problems I encountered in life I came across Falun Dafa. Master taught me how to live by the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I have learned how to solve the problems in my life, and know now what role I play in society.”

Practitioners from Denmark and Sweden met to celebrate World Falun Dafa Day.

Steffen recalled an amazing experience, “I felt that my whole body was gone, when I started cultivating for the first time. It felt wonderful and comfortable! Since then on, I have been getting healthier.”

“Master has also taught me many principles that I was not aware off. For example, ‘Who am I? Where do I come from? What is the purpose of being a human being? Why do I have to cultivate diligently?’ I understood the larger purpose of the universe. I was able to broaden my perspective, and stand on a higher plane to view matters.”

He also said, “My life changed dramatically after practicing Dafa. The universe’s Fa is deeply rooted in my mind and heart. It has become a part of who I am.”

He continued, “We celebrate World Falun Dafa Day every year in May. I stand here today to greet all the passersby, and my largest wish is that everyone will get to know and understand the preciousness of Falun Dafa.”

“Secondly, I would also like for everyone to know that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is still brutally persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners in China. One cannot turn a blind eye and stay away from hearing about the atrocities committed by the CCP! The CCP is evil to the core! Everyone should stand out and voice their opinion against this genocide and stop this ongoing 23 years of persecution.”
