As a part of the Falun Gong weeklong peaceful appeal in New York City, practitioners attained a permit to hold small group activities at Grand Central Station [a major commuter train station in New York City]. On September 5th, 7th and 8th, practitioners from different areas introduced Dafa to the public outside Grand Central Station.
There were thousands of people passing Grand Central Station every day, and the place where we held activities was very close to the Lexington Avenue entrance -- a heavily trafficked area. Although only eight people were allowed to participate in the activities each day, the result was very good. Many passersby took materials and watched our practice. Some of them showed interest in learning Falun Gong. Two people who stopped by, one from Russia and one from Korea, wanted to purchase Zhuan Falun in their own languages.
Practitioners from California were in charge of the activities on September 5th, practitioners from Montreal, Canada were in charge on the 7th, and New York and New Jersey practitioners on the 8th. Practitioners from out of town all learned from this experience that they could organize similar activities in the same format, and it would be very successful, even with a limited number of people participating.
