People Commend Falun Dafa’s Principles

Sonia

After she read the words Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, Sonia said, “I feel this is what I’ve been searching for. Life nowadays is so busy and tense, and we are filled with suspicion about the people around us. We need to find inner peace instead of searching externally. Falun Dafa seems to help us find inner peace. Yes, this is a cultivation method that can calm our minds and connect to us. It is valuable and beneficial for everyone.

“The three values, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, are very important, but lacking in our society nowadays. The education system seems to encourage competition and standing out. We then forget that, in order to stand out and surpass others, we might lie or be unable to tolerate people who are different from us. Yes, absolutely, these three values are bonds tha connect humanity. I will share them with others and my children.”

Sol Valcarcel

Sol Valcarcel, who worked at the exhibition, passed by practitioners’ booth frequently. She saw the exercise demonstration and the introduction to Falun Dafa on the television.

She said, “The principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance allow people to find inner peace and tranquility. Because many of us live another kind of life, we have not thought about these principles that are more important. These principles should be taught to us through this kind of practice or at school from the time we are young, because it emphasizes important values to guide children.”

Cornelia

Cornelia said she was drawn by the exercise music and said, “In this chaotic world, practices like Falun Dafa are necessary. The world needs Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and Falun Dafa.” She asked about how Falun Dafa spread throughout the world and if it is still being widely taught. She said this was exactly what she was looking for. After practitioners answered her questions, she took an origami lotus flower.

Alejandra

Alejandra said she was deeply touched by Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance: “I think Falun Dafa has extraordinary significance in this day and age, in the universe, and on earth. This is very important. We should all learn about and apply it. I think it not only can help ourselves, but also our society, and earth. So I think it is significant.”
