文/墨尔本法轮功学员【明慧网二零一一年八月十三日】二零一一年六月底,法轮功学员在澳洲维多利亚省的小镇米尔杜拉(Mildura)举办了介绍法轮大法(又称法轮功)的讲座。活动很成功,多家媒体对此进行了报道。

米尔杜拉位于维省西北部,是世界最长的河流之一的墨累河(Murray River)的发源地,此地盛产葡萄、柑橘和蔬菜。讲座在米尔杜拉植物园的伍尔谢德(woolshed)举办。

当地报纸《米尔杜拉周报》(Mildura Weekly)为讲座做了广泛的宣传,介绍法轮大法以及其在中国大陆遭受的迫害,详尽地报导了两位加拿大法律专家对中共活摘法轮功学员器官的指控所作的调查和发表的报告。文章还介绍了组织法轮大法讲座的当地居民、法轮功学员特丽莎·安德森(Trisha Anderson)女士因为修炼法轮功,包括胆囊炎在内的许多多年病痛得到治愈的经历。

当地的WIN电视台派记者观摩法轮大法讲座。《米尔杜拉桑瑞西日报》(Sunraysia Daily)也对法轮功学员的活动作了报道。

法轮功学员们于七月底前往米尔杜拉中心学校(Mildura Central School)介绍法轮功、发生在中国的迫害,并教学生们折叠纸莲花。学员说:“教学生叠纸莲花不仅仅是让他们体会学习的乐趣,更重要的是培养他们的善心,让学生能想到别人,特别是那些没有他们那么幸运的孩子们。”

叠好纸莲花后,法轮功学员来到教室外教功。师生们都认为法轮功是让人非常放松愉悦的功法。一位教师邀请法轮功学员去庆生早茶会,在那里,学员们继续向其他教师介绍法轮大法。该学校的教师都很愿意听介绍,并踊跃提出问题,比如为什么到现在中共还在迫害法轮大法。

Australia: Falun Dafa Workshop Held in Mildura

By a practitioner in Melbourne

(Clearwisdom.net) At the end of June 2011, Falun Gong practitioners in Victoria held a Falun Dafa workshop in Mildura. Several local media outlets covered the event.

Mildura is located in northwestern Victoria Province and is the origin of the Murray River, the longest river in the world. The workshop was held in the historic Magenta Woolshed of the Inland Botanic Gardens.

The local newspaper Mildura Weekly carried a report introducing Falun Dafa and promoting the workshop. The article also covered the persecution of Falun Dafa in China, and two Canadian legal experts’ investigation into claims about the Chinese Communist Party’s organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners. The article introduced the first-hand experience of a local practitioner, Trisha Anderson, who recovered from a series of health problems including a gall bladder problem after practicing Falun Gong.

A local TV station, WIN TV dispatched a reporter to attend the workshop and the Sunraysia Daily also covered the event.

At the end of July, Falun Gong practitioners went to Mildura Central School to introduce Falun Gong and expose the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution in China. They taught the students how to make folded paper lotus flowers. A practitioner said, “Teaching students to make paper lotus flowers not only lets them experience the joy of learning, but also inspires them think of others, especially those who are not as fortunate as them.”

After making the paper lotus flowers, the practitioners taught the students the Falun Gong exercises outdoors. Many of the teachers and students commented that Falun Gong seems to be great for stress relief. One teacher invited the practitioners to participate in a birthday celebration at the school. The practitioners introduced Falun Gong to other teachers there. The teachers listened carefully and raised questions actively. They were indignant over the CCP's brutal persecution of Falun Gong.
