Congratulations on the World
Falun Dafa Day from Zhejiang Falun Dafa Practitioners
Respected fellow practitioners,
Eight years ago, our beloved Teacher compassionately imparted Falun Dafa to all sentient beings. Since then, the hope comes to mankind in this Dharma-ending period of time, and the light of Buddha shines upon the immense universe.
In the past eight years, countless lives have been awakened to their Buddha nature, and the lives of hundreds of millions of people have been touched. Falun Dafa has been promulgated far and wide around the world. People of all ethnicity have been blessed upon hearing the voice of Falun Dafa. In this brief period of eight years, justice has once again demonstrated its mighty power to the world and the truth once again illuminates mankind. People in the world are being awakened to face the new reality - Falun Dafa. As Falun Dafa continues to manifest its mighty virtue, the hope for the entire humankind is once again emerging.
Through these eight years of weathering ordeals and hardships, we are embracing the refreshing May that is full of energy. May the 13th is the forty-ninth birthday of our most beloved Teacher, and it coincides with the 8th anniversary of the initial introduction of Falun Dafa to the public. It is also the "World Falun Dafa Day" proposed by European and American Falun Dafa practitioners. In order to express our respect for our beloved Teacher, commemorate this day of significance to the world, enable more people to know about Falun Dafa, assist the people with pre-destined relationships to soon acquire Falun Dafa, appeal to the kind-hearted people for their support of the practitioners in Mainland China to gain the legal rights for the freedom of belief and cultivation, and urge the overseas practitioners to make further advancement, we resolutely respond to this proposal by European and American practitioners, and warmly congratulate them on the proclamation of May 13th to be the annual World Falun Dafa Day.
We are joyfully encouraged. Let us say thanks to our beloved Teacher. We will meet the expectations the Teacher has for us to cultivate firmly and return to our homes soon. We have the Great Law [Falun Dafa] with us, and we have our honorable Teacher with us. We will make more effort to firmly cultivate ourselves with hearts undisturbed by the harsh conditions. We will let go of the attachment of fame, fortune and sentiments. We will strictly adhere to "Zhen-Shan-Ren" to become people with higher moral standards. We will conduct ourselves to resist the spread of the fabricated scriptures by not listening, believing or spreading any such interference. We will safeguard Falun Dafa with sober minds. We will continue to present facts pertaining to Falun Gong to the government authorities. We will adapt ourselves to the environment that we are in to more effectively spread Falun Dafa to people around us, and let them know that Falun Dafa is the most supernormal science of all and of high virtue. We will make known to the public the truth of Falun Dafa, and help them elevate their minds and the morality of the society. All these are the ordained duties of us Falun Dafa practitioners.
Fellow overseas practitioners and fellow practitioners in Mainland China: the truth belongs to us, and the future belongs to us. Let us join hands across different lands. The celebration events of World Falun Dafa Day will no doubt bring an even more brilliant tomorrow on our way to "returning to our true origins" and our efforts "assisting our Teacher in disseminating Falun Dafa in this world".
