(Clearwisdom.net May 13, 2003) After his grandson began to practise Falun Gong, a Swiss man, who is almost 90 years old, developed a very positive opinion of the practice. Falun Gong enabled his grandson to quit smoking, after a 10-year habit, and overcome drug abuse and addiction to lead a positive and active life. The grandfather now often regularly recommends Zhuan Falun [the main book of Falun Gong] to people, and has loaned the book to his friends many times.

After reading the latest information about the persecution of Falun Gong in a newspaper, the grandfather decided to help practitioners in China. He wrote a letter to a superintendent in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who is also an MP, appealing for help stop the brutal persecution of Falun Gong, and asking that practitioners in China are given the fundamental freedoms stated in the country's Constitution.

He cannot understand why this practice, which brings so many benefits to his grandson, has been banned and brutally persecuted in China.
