Clarifying the truth
Cathy of Fremont says: "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance! That is what everybody needs."
Many people asked for detailed materials. Singh of Fremont learned that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) uses the Olympics as an excuse to worsen the persecution against Falun Gong. He said that the world should put pressure on the CCP and not do business with them.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang from China told practitioners that they have already quit the party. They watch NTDTV every day. Mr. Zhang said the CCP maintains its power with violence. He said he wants to learn Falun Gong because he feels it is good, and that is why he came to practitioners' booth.
Beth of Fremont said she learned the Falun Gong exercises at a workshop in Fremont. She felt it was very good, so today she stopped to get more materials.
Cathy of Fremont accepted a paper lotus flower from practitioners. She read the bookmark on the flower and said: "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance! That is what everybody needs."
Cheng Ruilan, a local practitioner, said that everybody wants to learn the truth of Falun Gong. She called upon Chinese people to quit the party and help to stop the nine-year-long persecution.
