[Minghui.org] Italy: High School Students Experience the Tranquility of Falun Gong

May 20, 2023 | By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Italy

Sophomores Ludovica and Lorena commented that doing the exercises made them feel happy, peaceful, and gave them a wonderful sense of serenity.

(Minghui.org) Istituto di Istruzione Secondaria di II Grado Matilde Serao is a comprehensive national high school in Italy. Students in grades one through five have learned about Falun Dafa in class since November 2022. They have watched videos teaching the exercises and introducing Falun Dafa in different languages. Teachers and students alike said that practicing Falun Dafa is wonderful, and said they agree with Falun Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.

During a week-long civic education event in April 2023, the high school arranged to introduce traditional Chinese cultivation culture. Teachers of various subjects cooperated to introduce Falun Dafa to students in class, allowing the students to watch videos of Falun Dafa spreading and benefiting people of all races around the world. The teachers also led the students to learn the Falun Dafa exercises collectively in a park near the school. After learning the exercises, many students said that they felt very relaxed.

Sophomores Claudio (left) and Giacomo (right) both agreed that they felt quite comfortable, and had a wonderful feeling that they had never experienced before, after learning the exercises. Claudio said, “It feels like my body and mind have been cleansed, and I feel refreshed and relaxed.”

*Sophomores Ludovica (left) and Lorena (right) commented that doing the exercises made them feel happy, peaceful, and gave them a wonderful sense of serenity.*

Several students shed tears while listening to the exercise music during the exercises. When a teacher came over to inquire with them, they said that they seemed to be touched by a kind energy deep in their hearts, and it moved them to tears.

A student named Miran said that she didn’t focus at first, but during the exercises, she realized that her whole body was transparent, and she felt that the bad things in and around her were cleared away. She did not expect that she would be so focused and concentrated while learning the Falun Gong exercises in class.

Teachers and students expressed that they would continue to learn and practice Falun Gong. Many said that the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are precious values and wonderful.

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
