My Understanding of the Establishment of the UK Minghui School

On September the 7th 2003, the UK Minghui School was formally established. The school is based on Falun Dafa, teaching students to live by the principles of “Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance”, and make a priority of valuing morality and improving their moral character. In addition, the students learn the five sets of Falun Gong exercises to attain a tranquil heart and a healthy body. At the same time they learn Chinese.

With regard to the importance of Minghui School, we have an understanding process. At first some practitioners worried that it would disperse our energy and affect the development of other Dafa work. Through discussion, we understood its importance from the following aspects.

There is an old saying in Chinese: “children are the future.” Jiang Zemin has spread lies to slander Dafa in China’s schools. When he heard that Minghui School had been established in foreign countries, he was so angry that he shivered from head to toe. Why is the evil so afraid of Minghui Schools? It is because they teach people to be good.

Actually, little UK practitioners have taken part in various Dafa activities for several years now, but it hasn’t had any formal classification. Regarding the question of whether it is necessary to build up a Minghui School, we understand that it is just like the worldwide Falun Dafa Associations. Adults need a name for external activities, and children also need such a thing. One point is that it is good for little practitioners to share their experiences together and help each other, as well as to create a cultivation environment so that they can improve as one body. The most important point is to repress the evil in other dimensions, and leave a bright and pure land for the future as well as for history.

For example, at present young UK practitioners are enthusiastically participating in an activity to send faxes to China. Now we can send faxes in the name of the UK Minghui School. It does not matter whether we are sending faxes to ordinary people or to those who commit bad deeds. Regardless of the person, it has a great power.

The establishment of Minghui also helps us to blend better with people, such as attending and contributing to community activities and having a good effect in promoting Dafa.

We believe that the UK Minghui School will do better and better under Dafa’s guidance.
