Ms. Lin said, “It is really such a remarkable scene! Several thousand people sitting here, but together they are so in peace and harmony. It's amazing!” She learned the exercises onsite.

Ms. Gong said that the energy field was unique. She memorized the exercise formulas and said that cultivation is so profound.
As for the beauty of cultivation, the practitioners at the event had their own stories to tell.
