Many people stopped at the Falun Gong booth to learn more about the practice. People were happy to hear about Falun Gong and many wanted to immediately learn the exercises. During the Health Expo, two Falun Dafa workshops were held.
A professor who teaches philosophy at a university visited the Falun Gong booth on May 14 with his son. He came back again on May 16. He said to a practitioner that from the practitioners’ kindness, he sensed that Falun Gong is unique and felt that it could help people acquire the truth. He said that he was interested in reading the Falun Gong books.
When people learned about the persecution of Falun Gong in China, they were surprised and signed the petition calling for stopping the persecution. Some said they hoped that Chinese people could practice Falun Gong freely in China as they can in other countries.
