The proclamation reads, “Since 1992, millions of people worldwide have become healthier, happier, and more altruistic through their practice of Falun Dafa, and World Falun Dafa Day is a recognition of the benefits that this practice has brought to our society.
“For many, Falun Dafa (also known as Falun Gong) has allowed them to experience dramatic health benefits as well as newfound energy, mental clarity, and stress relief. New Yorkers have benefits from the practice and many have found it to be life-changing for the better in family, school and career.”
“Falun Dafa practitioners all over the world have dedicated countless hours to their communities in organizing free meditation classes, Chinese cultural productions of music and dance, and participating in local events. They are also actively working to bring about a peaceful resolution to the persecution of Falun Gong in China, and improve the future of the world’s most populous country.”
