Estonia: Falun Gong at the Mother Earth Fair in Tallinn

On the 23rd and 24th of May, practitioners from Finland, Latvia and Sweden participated in the Mother Earth fair in Tallinn. They demonstrated the exercises of Falun Gong, distributed materials to people at the fair, and also informed people about the persecution in China. The place where practitioners had their stall was close to the entrance of the fair, so when people came into the fair they saw Falun Dafa and had a good opportunity to get to know more about it. The peaceful Dafa music and the beautiful environment made many people stop and look at the exercise demonstration for a long time. Many wanted to talk with practitioners, wanted to have more materials and were also interested in reading the book Falun Gong, the introductory text of Falun Gong. People from the adjoining stalls came to thank practitioners and told them that they were very moved by seeing the exercises. At the end of the fair, one of them came to film practitioners and the Falun Gong stall with a video camera.

The organiser of the Fair was very grateful for the participation of Falun Gong. During the Fair some practitioners also went to Old City of Tallinn to give out flyers and talk with people about Falun Gong as well as the ongoing persecution in China. Falun Dafa was a familiar name for many people in Tallinn and their reactions were very positive.
