(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners had the opportunity to show the travelling exhibition, "Fields of Shame," in the German coastal city of Rostock during the weekend of November 12th. The exhibition, which has been shown nationwide, displays pictures and photographs of human rights violations and torture methods used in different countries. Many of the scenes are from China. Falun Gong practitioners were invited to participate in the exhibition to demonstrate reenactments of torture methods that are brutally applied to thousands of peaceful Falun Gong practitioners in China.

The traditional Chinese cultivation practice, Falun Gong, was prohibited in China in July 1999 and has since been brutally persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Practitioners are being sent to labor camps illegally and beaten and tortured because of their belief in "Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance." Approximately 2,780 cases of the persecution have resulted in death.

The exhibition was shown at the Neuer Market Square in the center of Rostock and attracted many interested viewers. We selected a good spot to place our booth, which was visible from all sides. Even as we were still setting up, the first visitors arrived and looked at the pictures painted by practitioners of the torture methods, with interest and horror. The visitors were happy to sign our petition demanding an end to the persecution and supporting the lawsuit against the former head of the CCP, Jiang Zemin, who initiated the persecution.

People were touched that we were fighting for human rights and standing up against the terrible persecution despite the cold weather. Children were also drawn to come and take a look. One little girl wanted to touch the transmitter which played our exercise music, while a practitioner demonstrated the exercises. A disabled girl and her brother remained in front of the pictures for a long time. When we told them about the principles of Falun Gong and the injustice it is experiencing in China, the girl looked at us with bright eyes. Many people are awakening and now recognize the injustice happening in China. They cannot understand why such a peaceful meditative practice is being persecuted and prohibited.

People are waiting for us and want to hear about Falun Gong. At one point, I got very cold and couldn't bear the winter weather when a friendly person approached me, touched my shoulder and encouraged me to continue. That day, I felt as if time stood still. Our activity enabled many people to find us and to hear the truth about Falun Gong. It was a day of harmony.

Falun Gong is wonderful.
