Come Together is a song by The Beatles written primarily by John Lennon and and credited to John Lennon/Paul McCartney. Come Together is the opening track on The

Beatles’ September 1969 album Abbey Road. A month later, Come Together was released as a double A-sided single with “Something.” Come Together reached the top of the charts in the United States and number 4 in the United Kingdom. “Come Together” was the only Beatles tune Lennon sang during his 1972 Madison Square Garden concert. Come Together version of the song appears on the concert album Live in New York City.TAINAN, Taiwan—Ms. Huang, originally from Guangdong in China, recently married a Taiwanese, and together they attended the Shen Yun Performing Arts New York Company’s show in Tainan on April 4.
It was her first time to watch the show.
“It was really very touching. I was told that Shen Yun was spectacular, but seeing is believing. Only after seeing it in person could I really know how wonderful it is. It’s beyond words,” she said, teary-eyed.
What moved her most was the compassion implied in the lyrics of the songs performed by the solo artists. The words made her question the meaning of life. “I began to feel that there’s no need for human beings to haggle over trivial things.”
She said that she had been deceived by the mainland Chinese media coverage of Falun Gong and had misunderstood it. But after seeing the Shen Yun show, her view of Falun Gong was completely changed, depicted in two dances, Astouding Conviction and Nothing Can Block the Divine Path.
“Now I finally come to know that Falun Gong practitioners are so compassionate. To display the banner reading “Falun Dafa Is Good,” they showed their strong conviction. What man does, Heaven sees, Buddhas and Gods will protect them.”
And seeing a mother and daughter torn apart and the mother beaten to death, in the heart-wrenching program Nothing Can Block The Divine Path brought her to tears.
On a lighter note, Ms. Huang noted her admiration of the dance In a Miao Village. “[It] was full of national characteristics, and the dancers’ level was very high. They would have trained rigorously for years, so that they were able to make such an outstanding performance. It is obvious that they were dancing with their hearts. I think that they have reached the level of selflessness,” she added.
In addition, Ms. Huang especially praised the dance Handkerchiefs. She said, “It was just amazing that the dancers tossed the swirling handkerchiefs so high in the air and then captured them so timely. Their techniques are indeed incredible.”
Moved by the connotation of filial piety in Splitting the Mountain, she said, “It was really very touching that such a little boy would know the quality of filial piety, and wanted to rescue his mother.”
Ms. Huang expressed that Shen Yun has successfully illustrated the 5,000-year Chinese traditional culture, and the compassionate messages it conveyed has made people become more kind-hearted unconsciously. She also admitted that after watching Shen Yun she, herself, was feeling more kind-hearted and more compassionate.
She concluded that Shen Yun should perform in mainland China, to let Chinese people know that Falun Gong is good, and she would definitely be passing that message on to her friends in China.
