Congress of the United States
House of Representatives

August 9, 2003

Congratulations on organizing the "Los Angeles County Falun Dafa Week." Falun Dafa was only introduced to California in 1995, but it has made an immediate impact on our society. Based on the teachings of Mr. Li Hongzhi, Falun Dafa's exercises and meditations are meant to provide important aerobic and spiritual services. Falun Dafa focuses on the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance; it teaches people not only to improve their own moral character, but emphasizes the universality of our world and how we all depend on each other.

Falun Dafa provides a public service of the greatest kind. There will always be a need for Falun Dafa in our community. I want to thank everyone who made this event possible and I hope the weeklong celebration is a success.

Sincerely,

Howard L. Berman
Member of Congress
