Germany: “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” International Art Exhibition Tours Eastern Germany

In the bright autumn days of September, the “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” International Art Exhibition toured to cities in the eastern Bavarian region of Germany. The paintings were first shown in the tourist city of Cham in the Bavarian forest. The exhibition opened with a traditional Chinese dance and the guest speeches that followed provided food for thought. Realising the severity of the persecution in China, the audience showed deep respect for the spiritual connotation and profound meaning of the artwork.

Many visitors wrote that they were genuinely moved by how beautiful the exhibition was. “This art exhibition is a miracle. Such brightness!” “We are all surrounded by lightness. Thank you!” “Everything is changing for the better!” “Thank you for the art exhibition and the profound talk. I Hope Falun Gong and “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” will spread across the world.” etc…

Among the visitors were retired couples, company employees, vacationing students, housewives and children. A common feeling shared by all was that the show exemplified a return to tradition, a return to pure art, while the persecution of Falun Gong in mainland China was truly beyond comprehension.

After seeing the pictures, many visitors were quite interested in Falun Gong and expressed a wish to study the principles of the practice. A lady bookstore owner committed herself to selling “A Report of the Falun Gong Persecution” so that more people could learn the truth.

Two girls said that the show was brilliant. They would take the Lotus Flowers from the exhibition back to their respective home countries, Poland and Russia.

Some people told the guide they could feel the strong energy emitted from the art works. Interestingly, according to innocent children, they could see people moving in the pictures, they were alive. After seeing the paintings, children could feel the very strong, comforting energy from the turning law wheels inside of their stomachs when learning Falun Gong exercises. A young mother wore an extremely emotional expression standing in front of a statue of the “Buddha,” as if the moment she had been waiting for the longest time had finally arrived. Many more people wept quietly while pondering in front of the paintings. What they felt was often beyond expression.

Among the extensive media coverage of the exhibition, several newspapers, such as Bonner Rundschau, ran promotions while Cham’s two local newspapers reported the event.

In the last weekend of September, the “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” Art Exhibition was held in Passau’s Holiday Inn. The exhibition left visitors deeply impressed.

Upon seeing the advertisement for the event, an artist immediately came to visit. He admired the painting “The Unity of Heaven and Man.” As an artist, his strives to depict righteousness. In his opinion, “The Unity of Heaven and Man” was an excellent piece of work leading art onto a righteous course. After explaining the painting, the guide also mentioned that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes Falun Gong. Accepting the Nine Commentaries on the CCP, the artist promised to read it thoroughly in order to see through the evilness of the CCP.

A shrewd elderly lady, who was very emotional after seeing the pictures, talked a long time with the guide. She firmly declared the CCP had brought mankind so much tribulation that we should never allow the CCP to stage a comeback or tragedies to be repeated. She also put down her most sincere blessings for the exhibition.

The “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” Art Exhibition was welcomed by the people of eastern Bavaria. In the art works people saw the real good and evil and the divine justice that good and evil are rewarded accordingly.
