(Clearwisdom.net) TAINAN, Taiwan--After seeing Shen Yun last year, the general manager of Shin Kong Life Insurance Company in Tainan, Ms. Lin Xuezhen, invited one of her friends in her business circle to attend Shen Yun's third show in Tainan at the Tainan Municipal Cultural Center.

After seeing the show, she was delighted to share her experience, saying, "Through the body language of the Shen Yun dancers, the audience could understand the messages conveyed in the dances. [Their performance] was so beautiful that I wondered if they had been assisted by higher beings. Shen Yun deserves its name. There must have been higher beings behind the scenes to give them guidance, as it was not something that could be accomplished by human beings. Our family members and other people around the globe should come to see the show."

She added, "Everybody should come to see the show and receive some righteous messages, so that people's compassionate nature can be enlightened, and their hearts can be purified. We should not indiscriminately go after personal interests and fame, and instead, we should do something beneficial for society. Only after we do something good spiritually, can society become more harmonious."

Ms. Lin Xuezhen said of Shen Yun, "It was not something that could be accomplished by human beings"

Ms. Lin said that she liked every program performed by Shen Yun, and she was especially touched by "Nothing Can Block the Divine Path." She added, "Being human is not simply meant by our physical body, as the physical body is transient, and the spirit is something eternal."

"Talking about the opening program 'The Emperor Ushers in a Glorious Age,' if we were really from heaven, whatever we do should conform to Godhood. We should be compassionate to others and do good deeds. We should behave ourselves as we are not simply ordinary people, and we should be responsible to society."

Lin Xuezhen concluded emotionly: "As Shen Yun's dancing skills and body movements were so wonderful, I just wonder who the instructor was. They must have been taught by higher beings, or have had divine assistance. Shen Yun indeed lives up to its name. I fully understand the meaning Shen Yun is conveying. It was really great!"

High School Principal: Shen Yun Purifying Hearts

The principal of the National Tainan Second Senior High School, Mr. Wang Jung-fa watched the final performance of Shen Yun's New York Company in Tainan on April 4. After the show, he commented: "It was very moving! It was astounding--It was highly educational for the human heart!"

Mr. Wang was particularly fond of "Nothing Can Block the Divine Path." "From an educational point of view, when Buddhas and Gods descended into the world [as depicted by the performance], it helps people understand the message of benevolence begets benevolence and evil begets evil, and it teaches people to become good."

After working for many years in the education field, Mr. Wang is of the view that Shen Yun is very suitable for students. "Shen Yun purifies the human heart and helps elevate morality," he said.

Mr. Wang stressed that "Nothing Can Block the Divine Path" is a true depiction of the situation in China, where the forbearance and kindness demonstrated by the Chinese Falun Gong practitioners really touch people's hearts. Mr. Wang hopes that the Chinese communist regime will stop the persecution. He also wishes everyone can pay much attention to this issue.

Standing Board Member: My Heart Is Deeply Moved

Ms. Lin Yongqui, Standing Board Member of the Tainan Women's Association, was in the audience to attend Shen Yun in Tainan on April 3. This was the first time she watched Shen Yun and Ms. Lin mentioned that the show was completely beyond her expectations. "The contents of the show and the way it was presented were actually something regarding humanity's longing for the spiritual realm of truthfulness, compassion and gracefulness. So what I saw just now was a performance with profound meanings," she added.

What moved Ms. Lin the most was the program "Nothing Can Block the Divine Path," which depicted the current day persecution of practitioners of the spiritual discipline Falun Gong by the Chinese communist regime. She said, "A family of three originally led a happy life, but the happy family was broken and the family members became destitute and homeless due to the persecution perpetrated by the evil forces. ... So, when I saw the Buddha descend from heaven to save the sentient beings, I was almost in tears. It was really very touching." She added that she was deeply moved when the evil was eventually overpowered by righteousness. Inspired by the scenes that Falun Gong practitioners were steadfast in their cultivation under persecution, she exclaimed.

After learning that all the Shen Yun artists are overseas Chinese, she was delighted because these overseas Chinese have carried forward the traditional Chinese culture into the future. She said, "After the Great Cultural Revolution launched by the Chinese Communist Party, many precious things were lost. With the endeavor of these overseas Chinese [performers of Shen Yun], those valuable things have been preserved. I was very delighted and deeply moved today, because I saw those pure elements [in the show]."
