(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners in Belgium participated in the Festival of Peace in Sint-Niklaas, Belgium from September 3 to September 4, 2022. Sint-Niklaas is a Belgian city and municipality located in the Flemish province of East Flanders.
Local residents were fascinated by Falun Gong (also called Falun Dafa), an ancient cultivation practice in which practitioners follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Many people took introductory fliers, asked for information about the group exercise sessions, and planned to attend.
Visitors at the Festival of Peace are introduced to Falun Gong.
Ishaak, a young man, talked with a Falun Gong practitioner for a long time. Ishaak has been interested in alternative therapies and approaches to gain inner peace. After hearing an introduction to Falun Gong, he said, “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is powerful! I think it’s important to mention these words all the time, not just at rare moments!”
Ishaak shows great interest in Falun Gong.
Ishaak said that he had been attracted to the Falun Gong activities because they were unique. “These activities are fascinating to me,” he said, “Because they aren’t for making money, but for telling people what’s going on in the world, and what you can do to become a better person, and find inner peace.” He said that Western countries should stop the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution. He left his contact information, wanting to receive more informational Dafa materials.
Local resident Sachin Nikalgi told a practitioner that he had been introduced to meditation during his childhood, and he would like to find out more about Falun Gong. Upon hearing about the Falun Gong principles, Sachin said, “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is the most important issue one comes across in life. Anything and anyone promoting these three characters must be a good thing! Meditation is a great way to find out about your inner self. Everyone should practice it.”

Filip Wauter, a physical therapist, told the reporter that he had been introduced to Falun Gong four years ago, and enjoyed doing the exercises at a group exercise site.
Filip Wauter feels strong energy after reading Zhuan Falun.
Filip said that he used to study psychotherapy, and his body was sensitive to energy. “After reading Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Gong, my body experienced stronger energy. People have been kept busy with their lives and lost many important things. Falun Dafa has helped me find a connection point between me and my inner self.”
