Toronto Area Practitioners Celebrate World Falun Dafa Day in Car Parade
A car parade of over 100 vehicles drove across Greater Toronto over the weekend, celebrating the 29th anniversary of the introduction of Falun Dafa to the public.
Falun Dafa, also known as Falun Gong, is a spiritual practice that consists of five meditative exercises and moral teachings based on the core tenets of “truthfulness, compassion, forbearance,” according to its website. The practice was first introduced to the public in China and gained popularity in the 1990s. Practitioners gather annually across the globe to wish the founder of the practice, Li Hongzhi, a happy birthday on May 13th.
