Belgian Practitioners Clarify the Truth in Front of the Stock Market

On Saturday 19th of January, practitioners from Belgium hung up banners in front of the Stock Market in Brussels reading “Truthfulness, Benevolence, Forbearance” and “China: Stop the State Terrorism Against Falun Gong Practitioners” as well as banners exposing the torture endured by practitioners in mainland China. We did the exercises on the stairs of the stock market and handed out truth clarifying materials during the whole afternoon. In the evening, our demonstration was concluded by a candle light vigil in memory of those practitioners who lost their lives under the evil’s persecution.

When some practitioners first arrived to prepare everything, there was suddenly a heavy rainfall, and we had to protect the materials while we did the righteous thoughts meditation. After that, the clouds broke up. Later in the afternoon, there were also a few short outbursts. We were not disturbed by them and calmly continued the practice. The sun was shining brilliantly a few minutes later.

There were many people passing by as it was the first day of the sales week, and most of them gladly accepted our materials, and some even asked one more copy for their friends and relatives. One policeman who didn’t know we had permission for our demonstration asked what we were doing here. As soon as he saw the picture of a severely tortured practitioner on a flyer that I gave to him, he was clearly shocked and said: “OK, this says enough”. There were many Chinese tourists as well, and some enthusiastically took pictures of our practice and of the displayed banners. They also asked us many questions with great interest, and sadly shook their heads when they heard that the people on the pictures we showed them had all passed away. I felt very happy for these people when I observed their kind-hearted faces, and I was grateful in my heart for the opportunity to tell them the truth about Falun Gong.

We feel that this Falun Gong activity was very good. After the activities, we came together to discuss how we can do better in clarifying the truth.
