Recognize the Importance of Doing the Dafa Exercises

(Clearwisdom.net)

Many fellow practitioners know that we must never ignore the three critical tasks while we validate the Fa. We value studying the Fa, clarifying the facts and sending forth righteous thoughts. However, I noticed that many practitioners, myself included, did not pay attention to doing the exercises, especially the first four sets of exercises. We seldom practiced them. One day I did the Falun Standing Exercise by chance. A large portion of psoriasis like skin rashe on my thigh disappeared, and the under skin bleeding symptom also went away. Only then did I realize that neglecting the practice of exercises was also an omission. The old forces will exploit every one of our omissions. If we do not put to practice what Teacher taught us, then they would use this as the pretext to disrupt and to persecute us.

Teacher stated in his "The Great Consummation Way of Falun Dafa,"

"The exercise movements are necessary for transforming and cultivating these things. The exercises are part of the harmonization and perfection in our Dafa. So Dafa is a comprehensive mind-body cultivation system. It is also called "The Great Consummation Way. This Dafa thus requires both cultivation and exercises, with cultivation taking priority over the exercises. A person's gong will not increase if he merely does the exercises and fails to cultivate his xinxing. A person who only cultivates his xinxing and does not perform the exercises of the Great Consummation Way will find the growth of his gong potency impeded and his original-body (benti) unchanged."

There was also this paragraph in Teacher's "Lecturing on and Explaining the Fa at the Metropolitan New York Fa Conference:

"Question: A number of students have devoted themselves entirely in the Fa-rectification. They neglect eating and sleeping, and rarely do the exercises. As a result, some students who aren't very busy don't do the exercises, either. Doing the exercises doesn't appear to be very important to them.

Teacher: All of you sitting here, listen up. Did you all hear that? You must do well the three things that Dafa disciples should do well. You need to do the exercises. As long as the day of Consummation hasn't arrived you need to do the exercises, you need to study the Fa, and you need to do the Dafa disciples' three things. Definitely."

I like to remind my fellow practitioners via the Clearwisdom website that doing exercises is also part of the Fa. Every practitioner who had reached this far knew how to do it, we just had to follow the Fa to accomplish it. This is also a part of how genuine Dafa practitioners assimilate to the Fa.
