Shen Yun’s Has ‘The Role of Bringing the Beautiful on Earth,’ Says Writer

PARIS, France—Seraphina Husset is a writer. This is the second time she has attended Shen Yun and on April 27, she was at the Palais des Congrès, accompanied by Olivier Bianchi, president of a security company.

Mr. Bianchi said the show is “very good, very spiritual. The actors’ performances are remarkable!”

“We see people who are well trained, great athletes, and at the same time great artists. There is an excellent level of performance in the demonstration, the self-control and the transmission of values ... kindness, magnanimity or the sense of sharing, we see it throughout the whole show, we see that!”

New York-based Shen Yun is the world’s premier classical Chinese dance company, with a mission to revive 5,000 years of Chinese civilization.

For Ms. Husset, it was much more than a performance.

“You come out serene, lighter after seen this show. You are touched by the goodness,” said Mrs. Husset.

“In fact, the dance conceived at its highest level, as with the dancers, is a gift from the divine, it is grace, it’s beauty combined with grace ... Because there can be beauty alone, but what touches in the dance at a higher level, it is the beauty and grace!”

“As such, we can understand why, before dancing, the dancers and singers meditate, because they are aligned with the divine in their heart and soul. This is what is very beautiful, their bodies are emanations of the divine beauty, this is what is important, the purity! You have to be pure to dance like that, whether you like it or not. An inner life ethic is absolutely necessary. You can lead a normal life, but you need inner purity to reach this degree of perfection. This is divine perfection on Earth and it’s just beautiful!”

Moved by Shen Yun’s mission, Ms. Husset said she has written about Shen Yun on her own website.

“Indeed, I speak of great changes in China which are very positive for the return to values, to spiritual values! I am a little moved to talk about it ... bravo to this show!”

“This show has the function, the role of bringing the beautiful on Earth, the beautiful, through dance and songs,” she said.

For Olivier Bianchi, “goodness and benevolence are already expressed through the staging, the stage setting and in the presentation that brings the whole picture.”
