Editor of a Chinese Newspaper in Spain: Today I Met a True Falun Gong Practitioner

May 9, 2004 |   By a Spanish Practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) One day, I went out for dinner in a Chinese restaurant. There were already some Chinese people having dinner there, so I gave some truth clarification materials and VCDs to them. I said to them in Chinese: "Falun Dafa is good." They looked at me with surprised and friendly faces, and said thank you. After that they started to read the material carefully.

There was a Chinese man sitting at a table next to mine. After I passed him some truth clarification material, I tried to start a conversation. At the beginning, I thought he could not speak Spanish, but actually his Spanish was quite good. He passed me his business card. It turned out that he was the editor of a Chinese newspaper in Spain.

I told him that Falun Gong is very good, but it is being persecuted in China. The editor said that he knew about this and often received Falun Gong truth clarification materials. He also read Falun Dafa websites. He said that although he does not understand cultivation, people should have the freedom of belief and should not be persecuted.

He also said that he has never written articles to slander and attack Falun Gong. His colleagues at the newspaper also are not willing to publish this kind of rubbish. However, the Chinese Embassy put pressure on them and tried to force them to write such reports. But he had his own standard of behavior and would not go against it and write anything against his will.

Later I told him about my cultivation experiences. After I started to practice, my physical and mental health improved a lot. He was impressed by Falun Gong's miraculous effects. He said before he had only read about Falun Gong, but today he met a real Falun Gong practitioner: healthy, peaceful and happy.

He said he had never read any Falun Gong books before, but now he really wanted to have a look and to find out what Falun Gong actually is. I promised him that I would bring him a copy of Zhuan Falun when we next met.

Before I left, I wished him good luck. It really is true: those who know the truth about Falun Gong will have a bright future.
