(Clearwisdom.net) KAOHSIUNG, Taiwan--Japanese-style clay sculptor,
Song Guanyih, watched the Shen Yun Performing Arts 2009 World Tour
show at the Kaohsiung County Government Labor Affairs Bureau on March 16.
After watching the performance, she said, "Every program was amazing. Every
scene was astounding. The dance gestures were simply out of this world. I couldn't
resist wanting to dance with them. While I was still absorbed in one program,
the next started."

Ms. Song said that in the dance, The Udumbara's Bloom, the
performers were so light they looked as if they were flying. They were like the
flower in the backdrops--so beautiful that she wanted to hold the delicate girls
in her hand.
"I even forgot about myself. I was so absorbed that I forgot to clap at the
end of the program."
Heaven Awaits Us Despite Persecution left her with a rare experience.
"It was very moving. I felt as if I were in the scene. When they were
persecuted, I felt as if I were persecuted as well. When the gods and Buddhas
arrived, I felt as if electricity had passed through my body."
The most astounding program for her was the last one, Knowing the True
Picture Offers Ultimate Hope.
The theme of Knowing the True Picture Offers Ultimate Hope is that
the glorious culture of antiquity was brought to humans by higher beings and
that doing so was meant to help protect human morality.
"In the past, I was not interested in religion. So, regardless of what
others said, I did not believe in anything. However, after watching this
program, I started to rethink: What is the truth? I realized that truth needs to
be explored in order to be understood. ... When someone tells you about it, you
have to believe it first, then you will feel it. Many examples have already
taken place, such as the story of Monk Ji Gong Abducts the Bride. As
long as people believe in deities, gods will turn disaster around.
"Shen Yun displayed the history of the five-millennia-old culture
exquisitely. The context was very thorough and inspired the direction I'll take
in life. In terms of inspiration for my job, I think I will start to sculpt more
authentic and orthodox pieces."
