Ruslan, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Kyrgyzstan, took part in the celebrations. He is very grateful to be able to practice Falun Dafa.

“Falun Dafa has given me answers to my questions in family relations, work, etc,” he said. “I read many religious books, but didn’t find the answers to the meaning of life. The first time I learned about Falun Dafa, I realised it was what I had been looking for. I gained spiritual peace, learned the meaning of life, and how to walk the path of self-cultivation. I realised this is the truth.”

Falun Dafa practitioner Tatiana thanked Falun Dafa for helping her get rid of her kidney disease and low blood pressure. “I used to have many fears in my life,” she said. “[When we leave this world] we cannot take any material things that we’ve worked hard for in life, but our soul will be with us forever.”
