People Learn about Falun Dafa During World Village Festival in Helsinki

Practitioners in Helsinki participated in the World Village Festival on May 16 and 17, 2024. They introduced Falun Dafa to event-goers and told them about the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution.

Many people were drawn to the graceful movements as practitioners did the exercises. They took flyers and learned more about the practice. Practitioners told people that Falun Dafa (also known as Falun Gong) consists of five exercises, and teaches people to be good by following the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. The practice is widely recognized by the public. Within seven years (1992 to 1999), more than 100 million people in China were practicing, which exceeded the number of the CCP members at that time. Out of jealousy, the then CCP leader Jiang Zemin initiated the persecution on July 20, 1999, which continues to this day. Many practitioners were tortured to death. The CCP even sanctions organ harvesting from living practitioners for lucrative profit. After learning about the situation, many people signed the petition calling to end the persecution.
