(Minghui.org) With the 2019 Chinese New Year just around the corner, Falun Dafa practitioners are extending their warmest greetings to the founder of the practice, Mr. Li Hongzhi. They all wish Mr. Li a very happy new year.

Falun Dafa, known for its slow, meditative exercises and straightforward explanation of profound principles, is celebrated by people from all walks of life. The practice was first introduced to the public in May 1992. From company executives to bluecollar workers and farmers, they recount how practicing Falun Dafa helps them to be better people in their respective everyday situations.

Despite 20 years having passed since the Chinese communist regime ordered the nationwide persecution of Falun Dafa due to its immense popularity, many have practitioners persevered in their faith. They have vowed to be more diligent in their practice and let more people know about the beauty of it in their new year greetings.
