UPDATED: "Honoring The Courageous" by Rise-Ascend & Dedu (Be Saved) performed by Nemanja Rebic and Mika Hale

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all doing well.

In the coming days leading up to July 20, 2020, Falun Dafa practitioners all over the world will be raising awareness about the ongoing 21-year-long persecution of Falun Dafa by the Chinese Communist Party.

There will be candle light vigils and other activities to help inform more people about the brutal persecution that has continued in China for over two decades now.

Falun Dafa teaches Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance and, to this day, practitioners who live by these principles are tortured and murdered in China.

To mark the 21-year-long persecution, I am releasing a new song entitled “Honoring The Courageous.”


As a very special addition, and update to this blog post, I am including a touching song/video by Nemanja Rebic and Mika Hale.

 According to Nemanja:

"Dedu" composed by Xiu Yue, performed together with Mika Hale. There is a true story of a Falun Dafa practitioner singing this song while in detention in China and making the policeman standing next to her start crying. Today marks 21 years of this ongoing cruel persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners in China. So many lives have been lost, I hope we'll put a stop to this and there won't be a 22nd year...


I hope you all enjoy.

Kind regards,
Rise

An Exchange of Encouragement: Sharing Three Messages Between A Fan and Rise-Ascend

7/5/2020

Hello Everyone,

I recently received a very special message from a fan, and I want to share our brief email exchange with you all.

A Fan:

“Hello, 

By chance I downloaded the Jango app, after years of not having used it, and through that heard the song "Twilight." I'm very happy fate conspired to let me discover your beautiful music and message. It is very refreshing, in this tumultuous time, to hear your music and voice standing up for what you believe, against the grain and dark path people seem to be following now.

Whether it was God, fate, or random chance that led me to your music, I'm happy to be a new listener and a fan of your music and message!

Cheers,               
A Fan
”
 
Rise-Ascend:

“Dear ---------,

I want to extend my deepest, and most sincere gratitude for receiving your beautifully encouraging message.

I hope you believe me when I say, I have been doing this for many years, and I sincerely cannot recall receiving a more encouraging and beautiful message from a fan or listener.

In terms of making music, I walk a path that is very challenging, and honestly lonely, at times. Sometimes, I’m not so sure my music/message is getting through to people. However, your message affirms, in my mind, the priceless reward of touching people through music from the heart, and provides me with immense motivation to keep doing what I do.

It’s almost as if encouragement from above was sent through your kind message.

​All that said, I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Also, if you don’t mind, I would like to completely redact a copy of your email (entirely removing your name, and any personal identifiable information, making the message anonymous) and share it on my blog – as I feel it is truly that special.

Lastly, please feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel, and click the bell, in order to receive notifications as soon as I release a new song.

​

Kind regards,                       
Rise” 


A Fan:

“I would be thrilled for you to share my message on your blog, I'm very happy that you found it so impactful!

It's an odd time we live in right now, with a lot of hate and dishonesty, so the truth in your songs shine brightly. I believe there are so many people who are craving the truth right now, so your path may be lonely, but it is very meaningful.

I look forward to your future songs!
A Fan”
