(Minghui.org) “I believe what you said. Like you, I will become a good person. I wish to practice Falun Gong,” said Jessie, a passerby to a Falun Gong practitioner in an event in downtown Perth, Australia on September 12, 2015.

Falun Gong practitioners held the event to explain to people what Falun Gong is and raise awareness of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution.

Explaining the facts of Falun Gong and collecting signatures to stop the CCP's live organ harvesting

Jessie is a boxer. Seeing the practitioners' demonstration of Falun Gong exercises, he asked a practitioner whether it was Tai Chi. The practitioner told him it was Falun Gong while pointing at the large banner with the words of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. He was a little startled and said, “I was lost and want inner peace. I let down my family and many people. I took drugs and committed crimes. I am regretful for those things I did.”

“Dafa can give you true peace. You can become a good man as long as you truly learn Dafa,” said the practitioner.

He said he would learn the practice the next day. The practitioner gave him a flyer and told him about the group practice site where he could learn the exercises. The practitioner also told him to read Zhuan Falun online. Jessie was excited, hugged the practitioner and shook his hand several times before he left.

Another passerby Marca Edwards said she watched the documentary film “Human Harvest: China's Organ Trafficking.She asked what else she could do besides signing the petition against the CCP's live organ harvesting. A practitioner told her to spread the facts to more people. Thus she took video footage of the event with her cell phone and said she would upload it to her Facebook.
