(Minghui.org) Practitioners hold activities in Brasov’s old city center every week so that local residents and tourists can learn about Falun Dafa. They continue to receive support and encouragement from many people who sign petitions to stop the persecution of Falun Dafa in China.
Rosulet Daniel signed the petition on December 25, 2024 to call for an end to the persecution.
Rosulet Daniel from Buzău and his friends stopped at the Falun Dafa information booth, and signed the petition to end the persecution. He said he previously saw information on the Internet about Falun Dafa and how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes it, “I know when something is really good for people and society, correspondingly, there will be suppression. The CCP destroys everything good.”

High school students Mara and Vlad said the values taught by Falun Dafa brings people spiritual nourishment and society can gain from them.
Mara said, “Following these principles can profoundly transform a person, giving them a deeper, broader sense of integrity, empathy and resilience. Truthfulness shows us how to be sincere and value others—this is innate to every person. Compassion enables people to understand and help others, and tolerance strengthens our patience and acceptance in the face of difficulties.”
She said she saw many benefits from practicing Falun Dafa’s principles: “Those who wish to be simple, pure and balanced, including myself, can benefit from the cultivation principles of Falun Dafa. They can truly improve communication with others. Practicing compassion will pave a wide path of support and understanding while being tolerant can help me manage everyday pressures.”
Vlad agreed with her and said, “I believe I can gain from these values. They will be of great help to me in school and everyday life. I’ve talked to Falun Dafa practitioners before, and they told me practicing cultivation completely changed their lives.”
Mara thinks Falun Dafa is practiced by many people around the world because, “Dafa offers practitioners a spiritual, a better path. It also benefits them physically and mentally through meditation and improving their moral principles. As they become healthier, they feel happier and their outlook on life improves.”
Vlad said that, “Through simple exercises, Falun Dafa helps people to know themselves and each other.” When asked why he signed the petition to stop the persecution, he said, “People who follow such a great practice should not be persecuted.”
Mara said, “A government that carries out such a persecution against its own people has betrayed the basic principles of human rights and human dignity. The suppression of freedom of belief and expression reflects the authorities’ fear that they are losing control over citizens.”
They both encouraged practitioners to continue telling people about Falun Dafa and exposing the persecution. Vlad said, “Don’t lose confidence, you must continue.” Mara thought that practitioners must expose the truth for the benefit of humanity. “Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance are universal values that transcend persecution. The world sees your suffering, but admires your courage, so continue to fight for your freedom with dignity because you are an inspiration to all humanity!”

Kosa Nikol is a law student and said that following the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance can have a profound, positive impact on a person’s life particularly in four aspects: spiritual and emotional impact, improved relationships, moral development, and spiritual fulfillment.
She said that practicing Falun Dafa “has a spiritual and emotional impact in that following the truth helps people to live a truthful life, which leads to inner peace, as the person has nothing to hide or feel guilty about. Practicing compassion opens one’s heart to others, which reduces anger and selfishness, while tolerance helps people remain calm in difficult situations. Together, these principles create harmony in a person’s inner world.”
In regards to improving interpersonal relations, she said, “These values help build trust and avoid conflicts. Truthfulness creates honesty in relationships, kindness brings deeper empathy while forbearance helps foster understanding and tolerance.”
She stressed that improving moral values benefit both individual and society: “Following these principles can strengthen moral foundation, helping people make the right decisions. Such inner development creates positive influence on one’s life, but society as well.
“Putting these values into practice offer people a deeper understanding of the meaning of life. People can live harmoniously with nature and universe. Everyone can benefit from these values,” and she said, practicing Falun Dafa can bring “inner peace”, “following the truth can help one be honest to oneself and others, relieving stress and increasing inner peace.
“Compassion helps me have deeper empathy, improves my relationships with others and establishes solid connections between people. Forbearance helps me face difficulties better, accept others’ opinions and can help people avoid tension.”
She thought that, “The values of Falun Dafa are a compass for individual development, it helps me become a better person and live a happier, more balance life. It also has a positive effect on environment.”
Popa Diana Irina, a teacher from Alba Iulia, said she saw practitioners’ activities in Timisoara 16 years ago. She opposed the CCP’s organ harvesting and expressed support for Falun Dafa.
“Putting Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance into practice in everyday life benefits children and adults, this is the foundation for the development of humanity, life and one’s path in life, these principles are beautiful.” She thought practicing cultivation helps people enjoy a balanced life, “Working hard to find inner balance, when others see your balanced and positive energy, good things will naturally come into your life.”
Irina encouraged practitioners, “To continue to expose the CCP’s persecution, walk on the path of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, continue to practice cultivation. Falun Dafa suits people of all ages and is completely free to learn.”
