(Minghui.org) Practitioners participated in EXPONATURA: Live Healthy, a health and wellness fair that was held at the City Park Mall in the city of Constanța from October 20 to 22, 2023. During the event, they introduced Falun Dafa and the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance.
Practitioners provided flyers and information to help interested attendees start learning the practice. They also told people about how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has persecuted Falun Dafa since July 20, 1999, and the brutal methods used against their fellow practitioners in China—including forced organ harvesting. Attendees signed a petition addressed to the President of Romania, asking him to condemn the forced organ harvesting from practitioners in China.
People of all ages said the three principles of Falun Dafa resonated with them, and they expressed their solidarity with practitioners in China.
Entrepreneur: I See Compassion in Your Eyes
Mihaela, a 41-year-old entrepreneur and vendor at the fair, said she was already familiar with Falun Dafa. She stopped by to express her appreciation for the practitioners’ efforts.
She told a practitioner, “You’re a good person, I see such compassion in your eyes!”
She said she’s seen practitioners do the exercises in Timișoara before, and said their movements were very graceful. “They looked so beautiful together, dressed in yellow, doing the movements. I said that one day I would come and learn them.” She also expressed interest in joining the local practice site.
Mihaela expressed her appreciation to the practitioners.
A Mother and Her Daughters Learn the Exercises
Ramona, 37, along with her daughters—13-year-old Evelyn and 11-year-old Ana—visited the Falun Dafa booth. They were very interested in the information that they received about Falun Dafa and the CCP’s persecution.
Evelyn believes that the values of Falun Dafa are beneficial for people around the world. “These values—Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance—are very important in everyone’s life because with their help, we can lead a more peaceful life. Falun Dafa practitioners are calm and live life to the fullest.”
She also hopes that practitioners in China will continue to stand up for their faith in spite of adversity. “Trust that you will overcome any difficulties with the help of these values!” she said.
Ramona and her daughters were interested in practicing the Falun Dafa exercises. The next day, they went to the Falun Dafa practice site in Tăbăcăriei Park in Constanța to learn them.

Student: Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance Make the World Better
Alexandra, a student in Constanța, listened carefully to a practitioner’s explanation of the moral teachings of Falun Dafa. She said she admired Falun Dafa’s principles, “It is good for people to respect the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, because they will be able to create a better world,” she said.
When she learned of the plight of practitioners in China, she expressed her sympathy for them because she knew from Romanian history just how brutal communism is. “In communism, people are deceived by their leaders,” she said.
Alexandra said that people who follow the principles of Truthfulness–Compassion–Forbearance will be able to create a better world.
“Truthfulness–Compassion–Forbearance Is Needed by Everyone”
When she heard about Falun Dafa’s principles, a lady who attended the event with her two daughters stressed that these principles are very good and necessary, and that she tries to pass on moral values to her children.
Two young women listened attentively as practitioners explained what Falun Dafa was and learned about the CCP’s persecution. They showed their solidarity with practitioners in China who defend Truthfulness–Compassion–Forbearance at the cost of their freedom and even their lives.
