A child of eight years old named Utku, who sat for a while in meditation, did not want to quit despite the warning of her mother. After sitting in meditation for a while, Utku said that this practice is very good, that he feels very good, peaceful, happy, and that everyone should do it. Utku's mother also said that she was happy that her son was involved in such activities, which are helpful for his inner peace and health.
Seventeen-year-old Sevda who participated in the exercises for a short time said, “I found peace, it is calm and quiet. Actually, I am a very angry person. I am absolutely delighted that I have no anger left. I had very different feelings. I want everyone to do this.” Ebru, who was 18 years old, said that the exercises help people to be calm, peaceful, and they are very good.

It was often observed that everyone smiled, watched the practitioners, and wanted to take brochures. They said that Dafa practice is a good thing. The people who received information from the practitioners about Dafa were seen coming back to ask questions.

A former justice minister in Turkey Sadullah Ergin received a brochure. In addition, some journalists, reporters and journalists serving in the national channels also received brochures. Murat Yetkin, who broadcasts a news program on a national news channel NTV, was given a brochure. A brochure was given to the famous historian Sinan Meydan while he was going to his book signing event. Other than that, there were especially those who came and requested brochures.

It was seen that after the book fair was closed at 20:30 in the evening, a large number of people passed by making a queue in front of the Dafa practitioners. Brochures were handed out to hundreds of people who would be going to the hall to watch a famous comedy show on a national television in Turkey.

After the Book Fair was over, the next day many people called the practitioners to get Dafa information.
