(Minghui.org) In January 2025, practitioners in Romania organized activities in Brașov, Covasna, and Harghita to introduce Falun Dafa and raise awareness of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution.
On January 18 and 25, they held their weekly information booth and petition drive in their usual location on Republic Street in the historic center of Brașov.
In Covasna County, they hosted three events. The first event, on January 23, took place in the city of Sfântu Gheorghe where they handed out Falun Dafa informational calendars in Hungarian and Romanian to employees and shoppers in the Sugas shopping center, as well as to passersby in front of the store. They continued distributing on January 24, and then moved to Covasna City on January 25, and Târgu Secuiesc on January 26. In Harghita County, they distributed calendars to the people of the city of Miercurea Ciuc on January 24.

Multimedia Artist: “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance Gives One Courage”
Rareș Lulciuc signed the petition to end the persecution and encouraged people to get informed and support Falun Dafa on January 25, 2025.
This is not the first time that Rareș Lulciuc, a multimedia artist, saw the Falun Dafa booth. He explained he was drawn to the booth because of his own study of authoritarian regimes and how people can fight back against these systems. When he heard practitioners were persecuted, he talked with them to learn more.
Of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, Rareș said, “They are qualities that make people smart and immune to propaganda. The benefit of these three values is primarily transformation: open you up if you are closed, give you courage if you are afraid, give you perspective when you have none,” he said.
On the other hand he saw Falun Dafa’s ability to win the hearts of people around the world, as it did in China in the early years. “I believe that the people who practice found themselves practicing something different from anything before. I would dare say that they felt better, clearer, healthier and more aware,” he said.
“I’ve always been curious about spiritual practices. I believe that if Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance were missing from our lives, it would be a disaster, plain and simple. The moment Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance disappear, there is no point in living, in my view. The moment we consciously or unconsciously move away from these qualities, life becomes ugly and full of toxins, first of all mentally, but also biologically. I can’t imagine a life without truth and compassion, so I don’t have a model for comparison, but I know that without those qualities it would be a disaster,” he said.
“Thank you for all you do! Peace to all of you from Romania!” Rareș told practitioners as he left.
Happy to Receive Falun Dafa Calendars
At the entrance to the market in Miercurea Ciuc, a retired grandmother was delighted to receive calendars as a gift, saying that she wanted calendars in Hungarian, but also in Romanian, “Because we have to be like brothers and help each other, because we live together in our wonderful country, Romania.”
At a shop in the Cylex Central Food Market, a woman on duty was given a calendar and put it on the shop wall. As she was interested in Falun Dafa, a practitioner gave her a leaflet and told her about the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, and the CCP’s persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners. The woman also asked for leaflets for her daughter and granddaughter and explained they were looking for a spiritual practice. She asked for information for her daughter and granddaughter, in case they come to the practice site in Brasov to learn the exercises.
