(Minghui.org) The Life Line Association invited Falun Gong practitioners to offer free instruction to local seniors and organization volunteers on July 21, 2016. The association held an activity with a theme of qigong and health, part of a series of events on happy life in Chuangwei Township. Attendees of the event included local senior citizens.
The Life Line Association is well-known in Taiwan for its hotline, which helps people solve psychological issues, prevent self-inflicted harm, and encourage people to resume normal life. Over 40 people, including local seniors and organization volunteers, learned Falun Gong during the event. Many of the senior citizens said that they felt a strong energy field and were able to finish the standing exercise instruction session successfully.
Practitioners demonstrated the exercises and shared their experiences of practicing Falun Gong. They stressed that the exercises are slow and gradual, and suitable for people of all ages, and that Falun Gong stresses uplifting morality and character, and is beneficial to society. The hosting organization commended the practitioners.

Former suit tailor Lin Fu-sheng, 81, appears younger than the other event attendees. His arthritis and other illnesses disappeared shortly after he began practicing Falun Gong 19 years ago. His wife learned the practice with him. She mentioned, “My husband had taken Chinese herb medicines for over 40 years by then. I prepared the medicine for him. But since the second day after he learned Falun Gong, he has never taken any medicine again.”
Mr. Lin said, “My current health is better than when I was young.” Both he and his wife participated in the march resisting the persecution on July 18, and walked for over three hours. They showed no signs of tiredness.
The practitioners also showed a video about the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) brutal persecution of Falun Gong, which began on July 20, 1999. Since then, those who refuse to renounce Falun Gong have been imprisoned, tortured, and even killed for their organs.
Director Huang Ling-fang of the Yilan Life Line Association expressed admiration for the practitioners. She said that Falun Gong is great. She mentioned that some employees of the association had started practicing Falun Gong.
