European Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference Successfully Held in the Capital of Sweden

On June 12th 2005, the 2005 European Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference was grandly held in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. Falun Gong practitioners from nearly 30 countries attended the conference.

Revered Master Li sent a message of greetings to the conference; all attending Dafa practitioners were deeply inspired.

Practitioners from fifteen different countries gave speeches at the conference. A Turkish Dafa practitioner called Jansin represented all Turkish practitioners as the first Turkish practitioner to give a speech at such a large-scale Fa conference. She said at the end of her speech that there are many vivid stories among Turkish Dafa practitioners and she hopes they can take the chance to share these experiences. All in all, Turkish Dafa practitioners in different cities are devoting their specialities and capabilities to helping Master rectify the Fa and are getting more and more mature on the path of the Fa-rectification. More and more Turkish people are practising Falun Dafa. Falun Dafa has deeply rooted in Turkey and Turkish people’s hearts.

Liu Xiaotian, the orphan of a Falun Gong couple, talked about how he went from being a miserable victim of the persecution to a diligent Dafa practitioner. He said that he changed from a middle-school student knowing nothing about Dafa, to someone cultivating himself in Dafa and finally becoming a Fa-rectification period Dafa practitioner. It is Dafa that gave him a new life.

Katharina, a 7 year-old Swiss practitioner, shared her experiences as a young practitioner of doing the three things well. The three things Master Li asked practitioners to do are to study the Fa [the teachings of Falun Dafa], send forth righteous thoughts and clarify the truth about Falun Dafa and about the persecution to the world's people. Katharina mentioned in her speech that, whenever sitting in meditation she would always put a small display board beside her so that passers-by could read it and learn the truth of the persecution.

Many other practitioners shared their experiences of raising awareness about the persecution and clarifying the truth by making use of local TV stations, Falun Gong art exhibitions, a choir and anti-torture exhibitions. The conference concluded successfully in a sacred and celebratory atmosphere.
