(Clearwisdom.net) On the 15th and 16th of October, Falun Gong practitioners participated in the Spirit and Knowledge Expo held annually in Helsinki. Over the two days, practitioners introduced Falun Gong and exposed the persecution to the Finnish people. They demonstrated the exercises and distributed leaflets, as well as collecting signatures for the petition.
Practitioners have participated in the Expo five times over the last 5 years. Many people here have come to learn and understand the truth, and express their support for Falun Gong.
A great number of people came to our stall this year. They happily took leaflets, stopped and watched the exercise demonstration, and many others came simply to sign the petition and express support. Others came to obtain books and videos of the exercise instructions.

Having accepted a leaflet, a man from Norway asked practitioners for more information about Falun Gong. A practitioner told him: "Falun Gong practitioners now are still being persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party. More than 2700 Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted to death. Ten thousands of Falun Gong practitioners are still locked up in prisons and forced labor camps and are being persecuted. In contrast, Falun Gong has been is practiced in seventy-eight countries worldwide." After hearing all this, he said, "I have seen people practicing Falun Gong in Norway." He also asked for more leaflets for his Finnish girlfriend.

A vendor near our stall liked the music very much and said: "The music sounds really beautiful." Many people asked us where exercise sites were located. Seeing a western practitioner demonstrating the exercises, a lady started learning on the spot.
