(Clearwisdom.net) On May 13, Falun Gong practitioners in Italy separately gathered in Rome and Milan to celebrate the eighth annual World Falun Dafa Day and extend their wishes and thanks to the founder of the practice, Mr. Li Hongzhi. Introduced in 1992, Falun Gong has benefited over one hundred million practitioners around the world, and practitioners hope that more people can share this good news.
Over the past eight years of the cruel persecution of Falun Gong inflicted by the Chinese Communist regime, Falun Gong cultivators, based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, have peacefully protested and raised awareness about the practice, so that more and more people can come to know that the persecution is so brutal and Falun Gong is so beautiful.
On Sunday morning, crowds of people came to pay homage and they stopped to
read the exhibition boards and to get information about Falun Gong.
Many citizens in Milan were shocked when they heard about the horrible, violent
persecution.
Near the ancient castle downtown of Milan, Falun Gong practitioners from the
northern regions organized a campaign of commemoration. They demonstrated group
exercises and exposed the persecution so that more and more people could have
the opportunity to learn the good news about Falun Gong.
