CNN Reports about Shen Yun Performing Arts (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net) CNN reported at 6:00 p.m. on August 27, 2010 about Shen Yun Performing Arts' performances at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. CNN interviewed principal members of Shen Yun New York Company at the Kennedy Center Opera House.

Ms. Ying Chen, Conductor of Shen Yun New York Company Orchestra, spoke of the inner meaning of "Shen Yun." She said that it means something that is divinely inspired and beautiful.

Kelly Wen, Master of Ceremonies said, "Traditional Chinese culture is really like a lost art, because unfortunately under the Communist regime in China, much of that culture has been systematically destroyed. So our company aims to revive the essence of 5,000 years of culture."

Jared Madsen, Master of Ceremonies said, "We've got a full orchestra that has both western and classical Chinese instruments, and we have a beautiful backdrop that is almost like a movie that takes you into different scenes in Chinese history. We have about 40 dancers, with amazing costumes, each dance has different costume from different time periods throughout China."

Michelle Ren, Choreographer and Principal Dancer said, "What makes the company unique is because our mission is to revive traditional Chinese culture in its purest form. You won't see a show like ours in China today. Chinese culture is considered to be divinely inspired, so that's an overarching theme in our performance."

Kelly Wen continued, "A lot of our performers are ethnic Chinese who grew up in the West. Before joining this production, a lot of us didn't really have an idea of what this [Chinese] culture is all about, but once we delved into it and learned the dances and learned the history behind the dances, and most importantly, the values of our traditional Chinese culture, it really fills us with pride to be able to share this culture with people all around the world."

  Thank you for listening to 90.1 FM from 7pm to 9pm CDT on July 18th, 2009  through this radio show (www.thesecrettruth.com) we hope more people will learn about the brutal persecution of Falun Gong in China and will help support the end of the persecution. Past radio show is available through podcast please visit http://www.thesecrettruth.com/mainpage.htm

     

    Special thanks to host George Butler and Charlotte Littlefield Brown for inviting us to speak on their radio show please visit their website for more info.

    Thank you for your blessing our Washington DC trip was very smooth. Your love and support have made Veggie Heaven a shining star. We have received support from Texas from Congressman Smith, Congress Doggett and Congressman McCaul. We are grateful that they all co-sponsored the H.R605.

     

    We attended the rally on Capital Hill with more than 1000 Falun Gong practitioners, nine US congressmen, and representatives from more than 10 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to call for the end of persecution. Sheila Jackson Lee, Congresswoman from Texas, stated that she does not want to see practitioners jailed and tortured; she does not want children to have to know about violence; she does not want the world to think that people cannot have peaceful beliefs. Therefore, she was happy that every year elected representatives show their support, and more and more people are quitting the Communist Party. Sheila Jackson Lee is happy that more and more CCP members long for peace and freedom and are trying to stop the persecution. For more info on DC rally please visit http://veggieheavenaustin.com/DCRally.aspx

     

    We have met with assistants of four Texas congressmen to ask them to co-sponsor the H.R. 605. This resolution is very important, not only will it calls for an immeditate end to the persecution of Falun Gong in China, this will also calls upon People's Republic of China to end all harassment and intimidation within the borders of U.S of Falun Gong practitioners.

     

    As many of you may remembered, Veggie Heaven was vandalized May of last year. We were supporting a Quit CCP movement (Chinese Communist Party), a global network that encourages Chinese to withdraw from CCP. The movement celebrated a milestone of 35 million withdrawals on May of last year. We have hang the banner outside the restaurant which state “Reading Nine Commentaries and quitting communist party will bring a new era of China” in Chinese. That banner was cut and damaged. The Nine commentaries on the Communist Party http://veggieheavenaustin.com/NineCommentaries.aspx is the most detailed account of the CCP's rule in China ever published. It describes — in sometimes shocking detail — how the CCP has used violence, murder, deception, and misplaced nationalism to control the hearts and minds of the Chinese people.

     

     

     

    Also two newspaper stands for Epoch Time that we placed near UT area were stole around that time. Epoch Times is an independent voice which provide uncensored coverage of events in China. Our restaurant was vandalized, our glass door was shattered in a early morning. We suspected that the Chinese consulate was behind all this simply because we are Falun Gong practitioners and also we are supporters of Quit CCP movement. As Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Congresswoman from Florida has noted in DC rally 2009 that the persecution has been extended to America. She urges the American government to deport those who have been involved in perpetrating the persecution in this country.

    Congressman Lamar Smith has co-sponsored the H.R 605. We appreciated the time to talk his legislative director Gerardo Interiano about the persecution of Falun Gong in China and how it has affected Veggie Heaven. We appreciate all the work that Congressman Smith has done for our district. We also would like to thank Congrerssman Smith personally for supporting the 107th Congress Bill HR 188 which express the sense of Congress that the Government of the People's Republic of China should cease its persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Not only his support of this HR 605 has brought us one step closer to end this brutal persecution in China but also brought hopes to millions of people in China who are affected by this persecution. We look forward for his support in the future.

     

     

    Congressman Doggett has co-sponsored the H.R 605. We appreciated the time to talk his assistant Emily Seen about the persecution of Falun Gong in China and how it has affected Veggie Heaven. We appreciated all his work. His support of H.R 605 will bring us one step closer to end this brutal persecution in China.We look forward for his support in the future.

     

     

    Congressman McCaul has co-sponsor the H.R 605. We appreciated the time to talk to Melissa Haydel of Congressman McCaul about the persecution of Falun Gong in China and how it has affected Veggie Heaven. We are really happy that we have met Congressman McCaul in person and talked to him about H.R 605. We appreciated all his work. His support of H.R 605 will bring us one step closer to end this brutal persecution in China. It is a great honor to have met him and talked to him. We look forward for his support in the future. He informed us that he will co-sponsor the H.R 605. We appreciate Congressman McCaul's support.

    Congressman Culberson has co-sponsor the H.R 605. His support will speak out on behalf of those who are enduring unimaginable atrocities and who themselves cannot be heard. Not only his action will forever be remembered in the history but also will make the world a peaceful place.

    Sheila Jackson Lee, Congresswoman from Texas, expressed her respect for Falun Gong for all they have done in DC rally 2009. She said that the message she hoped to pass on today is that she and her colleagues stand here together with justice, no matter which party they belong to.

     

    The congresswoman stated that she does not want to see practitioners jailed and tortured; she does not want children to have to know about violence; she does not want the world to think that people cannot have peaceful beliefs. Therefore, she was happy that every year elected representatives show their support, and more and more people are quitting the Communist Party.

    Congressman Ted Poe has co-sponsor the H.R 605. Congressman Ted Poe: I once again call out to the Chinese government to stop its religious persecution

    Congressman Ted Poe of Texas provided a statement expressing his continuing commitment to call for justice for persecuted Falun Gong practitioners.

    "It's been ten years since the Chinese government banned the practice of Falun-Gong and began its severe and brutal crackdown towards those who practice its principles of truthfulness, benevolence, and forbearance.

     

    "The practitioners of this ancient practice have been beaten, tortured, and illegally imprisoned for simply seeking to peacefully carryout their commitment to their religion. Hundreds of stories from victims of persecution have flowed out of China and poured into the ears of sympathizers from all over the world.

     

    "Americans are privileged to live in this great nation where democracy is the rule of law. Unfortunately, not everyone is as blessed. As such, I feel a certain responsibility to speak out for those whose freedom has been cut short and whose voice has been silenced by an oppressive regime.

     

    "Last year, I had the opportunity to cosponsor a resolution that called upon China to end the human right abuses of its citizens. Seeing as little has changed, I once again call out to the Chinese government to stop its religious persecution and allow its' citizens to freely practice their spiritual beliefs. Too many innocent men and women have died, and although their deaths have not been in vain, it's time for change and that time is now."

     

     

    We also attended the Candle Light Vigil with more than 2,000 Falun Gong practitioners sat in meditation in front of the Capitol with lit candles held in hand. The event was also to honor those who have lost their lives to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) brutal campaign of torture and imprisonment also to display a show of solidarity against the persecution of their beliefs in China, which will reach the 10-year mark on July 20. http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/19722/

     

    Thousands gather to commemorate ten years since the beginning of the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

    We hope that you will light a candle in your heart and pray that this brutal persecution in China will end soon. 

     

     

    We also joined our fellow Falun Gong practitioners (over 3000) from more than 20 countries and marched down Pennsylvania Avenue on Friday July 17. July 20, 2009 will mark the 10th year of the persecution of Falun Gong in China. http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/19821/

    This year will be the tenth year of the Persecution of Falun Gong in China, we are asking your help in stopping the persecution and the severe human rights abuses against FalunGong practitioners in China. The extreme persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China is well documented it is certain inconceivable to us why any government would certainly systemically brutalize, torture, and murder its own citizens for exercising their most basic right to believe and practice their faith. Please get involved by visiting www.fofg.org

     

     

     

     

     

    Please help us support the H.Res.605 by writing to your

    congressman/congresswoman and ask him/her to co-sponsor this H.Res 605.

    http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/111_HE_605.html

     

    H. Res. 605 would recognize the continued persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China on the 10th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party campaign to suppress the Falun Gong spiritual movement and calling for an immediate end to the campaign to persecute, intimidate, imprison, and torture Falun Gong practitioners.

Your meditation can help stop the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

http://www.millionminutesofmeditation.org/

 

WE DID IT!

 

With your help, and the help of over 3,000 Falun Gong practitioners and supporters who came to Washington, DC from July 16 - 19, we raised over one million minutes of meditation. We were so busy organizing the amazing event on the National Mall on July 19 though, that we didn't update the website. Sorry about that. But we don't want to stop here. Keep meditating. Keep donating your minutes. Let's keep going until we bring freedom to all the people of China.

This July marks exactly 10 years since the Chinese Communist Party began a campaign of imprisonment, propaganda, torture, and murder to eradicate Falun Gong, a practice of meditation and spiritual cultivation based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance. Falun Gong was once celebrated by the Chinese government for its health benefits and moral teachings, but as the practice grew in popularity throughout the 1990's, the Communist Party began to see it as an ideological threat, eventually banning it outright. Practitioners of Falun Gong have maintained their peaceful beliefs in the face of this oppression, and their efforts to regain their freedom have always been non-violent and in line with the tenets of their faith. Hundreds of thousands have been imprisoned without trial. Millions have lost jobs, homes, and loved ones. Over 3,200 have been tortured to death for their beliefs.
