Germany: Falun Gong Invited to Participate in International Culture Exchange Week and Receives a Warm Welcome

The last week of September is International Culture Exchange Week in Augsburg, the third great city in Bayern State Germany. This is also a major event to celebrate the 450th anniversary of Augsburg, the Year of Religious Peace. Falun Gong practitioners were invited to participate in the variety shows performed for foreign immigrants and refugees on the evenings of September 28th and 30th.

During two shows, Falun Gong practitioners reflected calm and peace by practising the exercises ,which were gentle and harmonious. Dance performances with the names Flower Spirit and Eulogy of the Lotus won the admiration of the audience. The spectators were attracted by the great compassion displayed by Falun Gong practitioners and frequently gave applause to express their understanding and support. After the performances, the spectators came to the practitioners to ask for further information and happily wrote their own names on the small Lotus Flowers meticulously made by practitioners.
