Penfield Post [NY]: Falun Gong explained


Michelle Blackley

August 16, 2001 Falun Gong is an ancient form of qigong, the practice of refining the body and mind through special exercises and meditation.

It consists of self-improvement through studying founder Li Hongzhi's teachings, and performing five gentle exercises, including seated meditation. At the heart of the practices are the supreme principles of the universe: truthfulness, benevolence, and forbearance.

Through a combination of studying the books and performing the exercises, practitioners strive to become better people by embodying these principles in everything they do.
