Philadelphia, USA: The Philadelphia Inquirer: A Perfect Day for Qigong (Photo)
May 20, 2004
(Clearwisdom.net) The Philadelphia Inquirer published a photo report of Falun Gong practitioners' celebration of World Falun Dafa Day on May 14. The caption of the first picture read, "A banner flutters in the breeze as local practitioners of Falun Dafa, also called Falun Gong, celebrate World Falun Dafa. Yesterday marked the anniversary of Falun Dafa founder Li Hongzhi's public introduction of the practice in 1992. Cultivation practices, or "qigong," promote well-being through exercises and meditation. The Chinese government estimates that by 1999, between 70 million to 100 million Chinese citizens were practicing. The practice is also observed in more than 60 countries."
