• Without High Mountains One Cannot Experience the Lowness of Valleys -- Why Jiang Wanted to Persecute Falun Gong

  2003-06-16
  Jiang's actions can only be explained by looking at the difference between Falun Gong's principles and Jiang's character. There is as an old saying in China: "Without high mountains one cannot experience the lowness of valleys." Falun Gong teaches people to follow the universal principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, so the practitioners experience deep spiritual awareness and maintain high moral standards. By comparison, the deceitfulness, wickedness, and cruelty of Jiang's character are exposed. Therefore, he could not allow Falun Gong to exist.

I have been to many countries and learned many forms of Qi-gong and cultivation practices, but I have never felt such a strong feeling. At that time, I realised that this practice was unusual! I asked a gentleman who was distributing leaflets what the practice was about? When he told me that it was Falun Gong, I felt warm all over my whole body and heart, like it was something very pure. I said to myself at that moment: This is something I have been looking for.”

• Pirjo Svensson Writes to the U.S. Ambassador to Sweden Appealing for Charles Li

  2003-06-15
  "Dr. Charles Li was imprisoned in China after being ushered through a "show trial" in April.

I beg you to look into the case of Dr. Li immediately. His life is in danger."

  2003-06-14

• Hungary: Chinese Embassy in Budapest is Afraid of Dafa Practitioners' Appeal

  2003-06-14
  This is yet another example of the extension of the Jiang regime’s persecution to Europe. It is ridiculous that the PR China (via the Chinese Embassy) considers a couple of Falun Gong practitioners meditating a threat. It seems that the evil people are afraid of their wrongdoings being exposed to the international community and the general public.
