Report from the March 2001 European Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference in Geneva, Switzerland

The March 2001 European Falun Dafa Conference came to a successful close in Geneva, Switzerland today. More than 1,300 practitioners from Europe, Australia, Asia and North America attended the conference. This conference was held during a special time when the United Nations is holding an international convention in Geneva to discuss human rights and torture. The sky was a crisp blue with bright sunshine, even though the forecast called for rain all day.

Becoming a Diamond-Solid Disciple of the Teacher

[Minghui Net]

On Feb 27, I went to Tiananmen Square to petition peacefully. Together with a few other fellow practitioners, I unfurled a banner that read "Constantly Spinning, Falun Offers Salvation to All Lives". We also called out loudly, "Falun Dafa is righteous." At this time, two plain-clothes policemen rushed over and took away the banner. They beat me viciously and dragged me into a van, where I continued to call out "Falun Dafa is righteous". The plain-clothes police grabbed me by my hair and pressed me hard to the ground. With my head pressed to the ground, I still kept calling out "Falun Dafa is righteous." When they saw that I didn' stop, they stopped. When we arrived at the Security Office of the Tiananmen District, they pulled me into a room and gave me another round of vicious beating. When these perpetrators beat me, I looked them right in their eyes. Strangely enough, they couldn' continue with the beating. At that time, I had wounds all over my body, yet my heart was even more determined. I knew that the benevolent Teacher had shouldered a great deal on my account already.
