Subject: | World Falun Dafa Day |
Falun Dafa is a self-improvement practice based on the principles of truthfulness, compassion and forbearance. It was introduced in mainland China by Mr. Li Hongzhi on May 13th, 1992. However, Falun Dafa is no longer freely practiced in China. Beginning in 1999, government leadership in China began a nationwide crackdown on practitioners which has continued to the present. World Falun Dafa Day is a celebration but also a remembrance for the practitioners of Falun Dafa in China who are not able to freely practice their beliefs. May 13th 2019 marks the 27th year since it was first introduced to the world. Please consider joining me in recognizing May 13th 2019 as “World Falun Dafa Day” in Pennsylvania. |
