A Falun Gong practitioner who is a primary school teacher has been teaching students according to the universal values of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance in her classroom for ten years. She has hung the three words on the wall of the classroom. Whenever there is a small dispute between students, these three words become key for their communication and reconciliation.
(Minghui.org) Several Falun Gong practitioners in France are teachers. They guide the elementary and middle school students around them with the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. They show students how to practice Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, and have had very positive results.
The students have become sincere and kind, rarely have conflicts with each other, and their academic performance has improved. Teachers who practice Falun Gong are often invited by surrounding schools to teach courses related to physical and mental health.
A middle school called Collège du Rosaire in western France has invited a Falun Gong practitioner to participate in a course on emotional management for three consecutive years.
The practitioner was invited to the school to teach a physical and mental health education class again this year. More than 180 students and teachers from six 8th grade classes were introduced to the principles and practiced the Falun Gong exercises. The school and students were as warm and friendly as ever, and the interactions with the practitioners were also full of fun.
In the class, a physical education teacher at the school first talked about the true meaning of the swastikas in the Falun symbol. “It is an ancient symbol of peace and the universe, which is often confused with the Nazi symbol that was used by Hitler in the West and thus has lost its true, deep meaning. The swastika represents Buddha and universal peace in many Asian cultures.”
France will host the Olympic Games this year, so a practitioner, teachers, and students discussed the issue of top athletes who are participating in the Olympics paying more and more attention to psychological training. An increasing number of athletes are starting to meditate to relieve stress, fight frustration when facing setbacks, and to help recover from physical injuries.
The discussion was inspiring and aroused great interest among teachers and students. After the course, teachers and students received small lotus flowers and bookmarks bearing the words “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” They also learned about how these phrases became a message of inspiration and good fortune for people throughout China amidst the communist regime’s persecution and slander of the practice.
Teaching Elementary School Students
A Falun Gong practitioner who is a primary school teacher has been teaching students according to the universal values of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance in her classroom for ten years. She has hung the three words on the wall of the classroom. Whenever there is a small dispute between students, these three words become key for their communication and reconciliation.
This year the teacher read the book Fairy Tale Lotus, which was written by a Falun Gong practitioner, and she rediscovered the wonderful role of the values of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance in teaching. After discussing her idea with other teachers, she decided to let students make gifts for Mother’s Day by themselves this year.
In class, the students first read the story of Fairy Tale Lotus. The lotus symbolizes purity, an important value along with Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. The students made many versions of the lotus, and some students directly wrote the Chinese characters of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance on the gifts. One student also wrote:
My mother, you are the most sincere, loving, and patient mother.
I love you more than the stars.
Your child

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.
