The Peaceful Influence of Falun Dafa (Photo)

Sept. 30, 2006 |   By a Taiwanese Falun Dafa practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) In the park beside the Cultural Art Center of Chungli City, many people come to exercise at 5:00 a.m. You can hear various kinds of music here and these. Some people twist their waist and stretch, and some people dance. No matter whether they drive or ride a bike to get here, they have a unique purpose: to be healthy. Among all the exercisers, there is a group of Falun Gong practitioners. They stand in a circle to do the Falun Gong exercises every day regardless of cold or heat, rain or wind.

A homeless man with a mental disorder sleeps in the park. He is dirty and his body smells. The exercisers usually avoid him, so most of the time everything is peaceful. But the homeless man sometimes curses the exercisers, throws glass bottles toward them, or hits their cars and motorcycles with a stick. Some car windows have been broken and the bodies dented. The victims usually don't do anything about it, because reporting it to the police couldn't help much.

One day, the homeless man found a feather duster and he began to knock on the cars along the road with the bamboo handle. But when he came to the cars and motorcycles of Falun Gong practitioners, his anger seemed to disappear and he began to smile. He turned the feather duster around and cleaned the practitioners' vehicles with the feather end.

It seems that whenever he came close to the Falun Gong practitioners' exercise place, his temper would become peaceful. Sometimes he would smile and say, "Falun Dafa is really great. Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance."

This situation lets people see the power of Falun Dafa that silently changes a person. Or perhaps this is due to the compassionate energy field emitted by the practitioners: "The Buddha-light illuminates everywhere and rectifies all abnormalities."
