Russia: Introducing Falun Dafa to the People of Rybinsk

On July 23rd, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners held an activity in Rybinsk city to introduce the goodness and benefits of Falun Dafa to local people and tell them about the CCP’s seven year persecution of Falun Gong. On the square, practitioners placed different display boards, while others demonstrated the five sets of Falun Gong exercises. Materials for making paper lotus flowers were placed on a little table and practitioners taught people to make paper folded lotus flowers while telling them about the persecution. Lotus flowers symbolise the cultivator’s sanctity and goodness, it grows in mud but is not contaminated. Everybody loves the little paper lotus flowers, a little child held the flowers with both hands happily and said that he could smell the fragrance. Not only the children, even the police on duty came to see what was going on one after another, and afterwards displayed the lotus flowers on their police vehicle.
