On November 29, 2003, about 1500 Falun Dafa practitioners from North America
and other countries gathered at the World Congress Center in Atlanta to attend
the 2003 Southeast US Falun Dafa Cultivation Experience Sharing Conference.
At 2:40 p.m., our respected Master arrived at the conference amid practitioners’
warm applause and taught and explained the Fa for four hours. During his Fa-lecture,
Master once again emphasized the importance of truth clarification to the world’s people.
During the Fa conference, practitioners shared their understanding on improving
xinxing [mind nature, moral character] in Fa-rectification cultivation and their
experiences in unremitting truth clarification to all strata of society. A 12-year-old
practitioner shared her experiences in chat room on the Internet where she got
to know more than 100 friends and helped them learn about the true situation
of of Falun Dafa. Those friends appreciated her sincerity, kindness and insights
beyond her years.
What forms sharp contrast with the persecution in China, Falun Dafa overseas,
especially in the North America have won people’s recognition and popularity.
Taking this Fa conference as an example, many governments in Georgia and non-governmental
organizations, the mayor and congressmen sent congratulatory letters to the
Fa conference, expressing their best wishes for the Fa Conference’s great
success. They hoped that Falun Dafa practitioners who are suffering persecution
in China would obtain freedom soon. The Mayor of Columbus proclaimed November
to be the city’s Falun Dafa Month.
After Fa conference concluded, many practitioners continued discussing how
to better clarify the truth to the public.
