May 13th was World Falun Dafa Day. On this day, Finnish Falun practitioners celebrated in a park in Helsinki city centre and respectfully expressed good wishes for Master’s fifty-fifth birthday.

A banner reading “Falun Gong is good” was hung on one side of the park. In front of the banner, practitioners played waist-drums and demonstrated the five sets of Falun Gong exercises.

Demonstrating the Falun Gong exercises Waist -drummerss

It was the first time for the waist-drummers, made up of Finnish practitioners to perform. Among the team there were not only teenagers but aso elderly people in their sixties. The sound of the drums attracted tourists and they stopped one after another. Many of them took pictures and filmed the scene with their cameras.

During the activity, practitioners gave beautiful, hand-made lotus flowers to the children and elderly ladies and people kept praising: “Kaunis” Finnish meaning beautiful, pretty. At the same time, practitioners gave a brief introduction of Falun Gong to elderly people and parents of children as well.

At the same time when they were demonstrating to the Finnish people the beauty of Falun Gong, on the other side of the park, practitioners also hung banners of “Heaven will destroy the CCP, quit the Party in order to save oneself and the number of people who have quitted the Party is over 10,000,000” and “Strongly condemn the CCP having removed organs from live Falun Gong practitioners for sale and then cremated their bodies to eliminate the evidence” and exhibition boards with information about the persecution. Many people carefully read the exhibition boards first and then signed the petition, one after another, expressing support for opposing the persecution.

On this day there were also many Chinese tourists passing by. Practitioners seized the opportunity to give them copies of the Epoch Times newspaper's editorial “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party”. Some of them accepted the “Nine Commentaries” while hurrying on with their journey and some tourists stopped and listened to practitioners' explanations about the persecution. A practitioner promised that he would help five people withdraw from the CCP.
