Proclamation
Celebrating May 2009 as Falun Dafa Month Honouring Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance
Whereas Falun Dafa is an advanced exercise and meditation practice of mind, body, and spirit based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance; and
Whereas more men and women of Canada are learning the practice and purifying their hearts, energizing their bodies, and striving to create virtuous communities; and
Whereas Falun Dafa transcends cultural and racial boundaries and contributes to the universal dream of a peaceful, tolerant and more compassionate society; and
Whereas Falun Dafa practitioners' determination and courage to stand up for Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance while facing severe persecution from the Chinese Communist Party has shown the world the value of life and the preciousness of human dignity;
Now Therefore I, Phil Kent, Mayor of the City of Duncan do hereby declare May 2009 to be Falun Dafa Month Honouring Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance.
