(Clearwisdom.net) Recently, more and more Indian schoolteachers in Baineshwara have benefited from Falun Dafa and witnessed the positive changes that Falun Dafa has brought to schoolchildren. They have then started to recommend the practice to other schools.
About one and a half years ago, several practitioners went to a school in Baineshwara to promote Falun Dafa. The school principal often talks about the positive changes that Falun Dafa has brought to the children and recommends Dafa to other schools.]
Recently, a practitioner was invited by the principal to introduce Falun Dafa to a schoolteachers’ study camp, which gathered 60 schoolteachers from different areas in India. Before this invitation, the principal had invited me a few times to introduce Dafa to schoolchildren.
The practitioner enlightened to the importance of cooperation with other practitioners. He immediately contacted a practitioner in Sri Lanka who once expressed interest in taking part in activities to spread Falun Dafa. With the Indian practitioners’ continuous righteous thoughts, the Sri Lankan practitioner obtained a visa and arrived on time with two more practitioners. What happened to the practitioners was very interesting: The practitioner’s flight was delayed and thus many people applied for a refund. Consequently, the plane not only had extra seats, but the fare was very cheap. Therefore, two other practitioners who saw the practitioner off at the airport then decided to join the trip at the last minute.
In the end, four practitioners from Bangalore and three practitioners from Sri Lanka went to the study camp to introduce Falun Dafa. When the principal saw us, especially the Sri Lankan practitioners, he was very touched. He praised the practitioners in front of the schoolteachers for keeping their word and highlighted the story of the Sri Lankan practitioners. After the introductory class, the schoolteachers told the practitioners: “Falun Dafa is really good.” They said that they could see the glory of “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance” from these practitioners.
The Sri Lankan practitioners said that they had never had such an opportunity to introduce Dafa and clarify the truth to so many people. Several days later, the principal invited the practitioners to introduce Dafa to another study camp of 200 schoolteachers. Four local practitioners then went to the study camp site to introduce Falun Dafa. They stayed overnight so that they could go to another study camp as well.
In the first study camp, as the organizer felt very good after he learned Falun Dafa, he invited practitioners to spread Falun Dafa at Kolar, where they often hold schoolteacher study camps. That study camp organizer has now become a very diligent practitioner. In addition, his wife who also works at a school invited me to spread Falun Dafa to her school.
We hope that more and more schools will get to know Falun Dafa.

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.
