(Clearwisdom.net) The fireworks show is a traditional way to celebrate the New Year in Melbourne. On New Year's Eve of each year, tens of thousands of citizens would gather to watch the show. The local practitioners decided to utilize this opportunity to demonstrate the Falun Gong exercises and distribute truth-clarifying materials by the Yarra River, where it would be the most crowded. Practitioners also wanted to welcome the New Year in such a meaningful way.
Starting from 6:00 pm until midnight, while the fireworks were on display, many passers-by watched our exercise demonstration and accepted truth-clarifying materials. Many people learned the exercise on the spot. A teenage girl came forward to become an "instructor" soon after she learned the exercises. She helped practitioners to correct other people's movements. She said that she felt very warm all over her body when she learned and practiced the exercises, and that she felt extremely comfortable and wonderful.
