(Minghui.org) The Tianti Bookstore in Yongsan District, Seoul, South Korea, holds a Falun Dafa “Nine-Day Study Class” every month, teaching the exercises and the principles of Falun Dafa to citizens for free.
The following are experiences of the new students who attended the Falun Dafa Nine-Day Class in April 2023.
New students learn the fifth exercise
Li Chenjiu, 45, has been in Korea for 17 years. He is an ethnic Korean who immigrated from China. He said that he had always wanted to practice Falun Dafa when he was in China, but didn’t dare to do so, fearing the Chinese Communist Party’s brutal persecution. Yet the idea of practicing Falun Dafa had always been in his heart.
When working on a construction site in March of this year, Li accidentally fell from a considerable height and fractured his pelvis. The pain was excruciating and he could not sleep. He thought about Falun Dafa again, and found a local exercise site. He has continued to practice ever since. After one month, the tinnitus which had tormented him for over ten years disappeared, and his hip pain also subsided significantly.
“Previously, I was too scared to practice because of the persecution, but I knew that Falun Dafa was good. This time I read Zhuan Falun, and realized that the content in the book is completely different from what the Communist Party propagates. This is a book that truly teaches people to be kind and good. I realized that I had been completely deceived by the Communist Party.”
Kim Eun-hong, a 54-year-old designer, lives in Nowon-gu, Seoul. He is a devoted son, caring for a mother who has suffered from Parkinson’s disease and dementia for several years now. Due to physical and mental exertion, he suffered from insomnia and depression. He could not sleep without taking sleeping pills. Since taking the Falun Dafa class, he now feels much better mentally and is more relaxed as well.
“I tried other qigong in the past, but this is the best. I can feel the strong current of energy, and the movements are graceful as well. I came across Falun Dafa a few years ago when I attended a Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance art exhibition. I learned the exercises, and the effect was very good.”
“Back then, I was just doing the exercises, but already the health benefits were so great. Through this class, I read Zhuan Falun for the first time. Only then, did I know what Falun Dafa is truly about. Falun Dafa is great!”
Shin Mi-sook, 51, is a piano teacher living in Mapo-gu, Seoul. Although she started to practice after she got married twenty years ago, she didn’t continue because of her busy work schedule. Several months ago, she made up her mind to resume cultivation. She began exercising and reading the Fa earnestly daily like before.
“When I began true cultivation, I noticed changes in myself. I am now considerate of others, and focus on others instead of myself. Dafa’s principles make it easy to tell right from wrong, good from bad.”
The next Falun Dafa Nine-Day class will be held from May 30 to June 7 (morning class from 9:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., and evening class from 7:15 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.) at Tianti Bookstore in Seoul, Korea. For bookstore inquiries, call 02-504-0860.
