(Clearwisdom.net) On April 21, 2007, the people of Barcelona, Spain held activities to celebrate the annual "World Earth Day." The park near Arc de Triomf was packed with a lot of tourists and local residents celebrating the festival.

Falun Dafa booths attract many people to view the truth-clarification materials on display

People sign a petition to support Falun Gong

People come to learn the facts about Falun Gong and ask for information about practice sites

The Falun Dafa booth attracted a lot of attention. On one hand, people were drawn by the gracefulness of the Falun Gong exercises; on the other, they were shocked by the atrocities on the display boards exposing the Chinese Communist regime's inhumane persecution against Falun Gong. A middle-aged woman said: "I used to think that the Chinese Communist regime had changed for the better, and its human rights situation had improved. But it is not true whatsoever. It is despicable that what's behind China's prosperity are horrendous atrocities of cruel torture, killing and harvesting organs from living humans."

After viewing the photos exposing the Chinese Communist regime's harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners, an elderly man said: "It is indeed terrible. The Chinese Communist regime is even far crueler than the Nazis."

After viewing the anti-torture display boards, many people inquired about how to help Falun Gong practitioners stop the persecution. When they learned that signing the petition or helping disseminate information about the facts of the persecution could help Falun Gong, many people signed their names one after another to show their support. Some also expressed that they would tell their relatives and friends about the facts of Falun Gong. After signing the petition, some college students said: "We believe that when the power of justice turns into a gigantic torrent, the evil will definitely be eliminated. We will forever side with justice and righteousness to support you."

After hearing that Falun Gong is a cultivation practice for refining the body and mind based on universal principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance," many visitors were interested in Falun Gong. They asked practitioners for further information on how to learn and practice Falun Gong. When they learned that it is free of charge, people were very surprised and it further enhanced their interest of learning the Falun Gong exercises. Many people jotted down the information about the contact persons and location of Falun Gong practice sites and expressed that they would definitely go to the practice site to learn the Falun Gong exercises.

Every year on "World Earth Day," many people with predestined relationships with Falun Dafa come to the park to hear about the goodness of Dafa and the facts of the persecution. All this is to lay a solid foundation for them to have a bright future.
