Estonia: "We Are Very Happy that You Are Here"

On September 19-20 2009, Falun Gong practitioners in Finland visited their beautiful neighbouring country of Estonia to attend the 15th Health Expo. It was held at the Lauluväljakilla Park in the capital of Tallinn. They introduced Falun Gong and exposed the CCP's brutal persecution of the practice over the last ten years.

People learning the exercises

Practitioners demonstrated and explained the exercises with the melodious music in the background, while many residents followed their movements. The practitioners patiently corrected their movements. Many told the practitioners that they wanted to know how to begin practising Falun Gong. On the second day, the Falun Gong exercise demonstration was chosen by the organisers to be the finale of the expo.

People showed great interest in Falun Gong's principles, and the Falun Gong books were very popular. There was a constant stream of people that wanted to talk to the practitioners. Many expo participants said, "We are very happy that you are here."

A Qigong master that shared the stage kept saying that the practitioners made her feel very good, very happy. She said that she looked forward to seeing the Shen Yun performance.

One young lady stayed for nearly an hour in front of the Falun Gong stand, carefully studying the materials. Having seen the exercise video and the exercise demonstration, she was very interested and purchased Falun Gong books.

When the expo ended, many held lotus flowers that were hand-made by practitioners and said that they hoped to see Falun Gong once again in Estonia.
