Ukraine: Interesting Stories from Mariinskiy Park

Mariinskiy Park is located right in front of the Chinese Embassy to Ukraine in Kiev. Every day, Falun Gong practitioners perform the exercises in the park. Several miraculous but interesting events have happened there.

One day last year, when practitioners were performing the daily exercises as usual, a middle aged woman brought a child for a walk in the park. When they passed by the practice site, the woman read the Russian words “Falun Dafa is Good” on practitioners' banner. The two year old child said, “Falun Dafa is righteous.” Hearing the child’s words, a practitioner gave them introductory documents about Falun Gong immediately. Isn’t this two year old child amazing since nobody had told him about Falun Gong?

Another event occurred not long ago. It happened to a mother and a one-year-old child when they passed by a practitioner who was distributing Falun Gong materials. The mother wanted to refuse the material, but the child said in decent Chinese, “Falun Dafa is good". The mother was astonished and asked what the child had just said. The practitioner explained to her what the child said was Chinese, meaning “Falun Dafa is good.” After listening to the explanations, the woman accepted the newspaper from the practitioner right away.

Instances like these happened in the park several times. The aforementioned two cases are taken as examples, hoping that more and more people would truly understand what “Falun Dafa” is all about.
