Falun Gong and the Persecution in China
Unsubscribe email
Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, is an ancient Chinese spiritual practice
in the Buddhist tradition and consists of upright teachings a sitting
meditation, and four simple exercises that are a truly distinctive and highly
effective way to enhance your health and vitality levels. Please type the
phrase on the Google search engine for additional facts: An Introduction to
Falun Gong.
At the heart of Falun Gong are the values of Truthfulness, Compassion, and
Tolerance (or in Chinese, Zhen ē Shan å Ren åæ). Falun Dafa instructs that these
are the essential nature of the universe and takes them to be a guide for
everyday life and practice .
In 1998, to determine the health effects of Falun Gong, a survey was carried
out among Falun Gong practitioners in five districts in Beijing, with 12,731
bona-fide questionnaires. The results show that Falun Gongās healing rate from
disease is 99.1% with a cure rate of 58.5%; Improvement rate is 80.3% in
physical wellbeing and 96.5% in mental health . The survey indicates that
Falun Gong has a significant effect in disease healing and wellbeing
elevation. Falun Gong is a remarkable Qi-gong practice that assists people both
physically and mentally.
The health and wellness benefits of Falun Gong have been witnessed by people
around the world, while the practice continues to grow in 114 countries. It
has been welcomed by governments. But yet, in China where it was presented to
the public in 1992, it has been cruelly persecuted .
In July 1999, Falun Gong became public enemy number one in China. A paranoid
dictator's fear of Falun Gong's exponential growth resulted in acute jealousy
of Falun Gongās popularity . Since the beginning of the persecution , many
practitioners have been sent to āreform through labourā camps, where they are
subject to extreme food deprivation, beaten, and tormented with electric
batons. By 2008, there were over 3,000 registered cases of practitioners who
were murdered as a result of the state-run persecution . Increasingly, solid
evidence suggests many more, at least 60,000 until several years ago, have
been targetedas unwilling donors of kidneys, livers, and hearts.
To understand the severity of this situation, let me give a small analogy :
Imagine you practiced yoga in India and one fine day you were kidnapped and
put into jail for practicing it. Then you were tortured and pushed to stop
practicing. Then, when you refused to stop since it has given you only good
things, you were put through more torture and denied meeting with your family
members, who did not know where you were. No court would take your case. You
were put through physical and mental harassment and then subjected to the worst
crime of all: Your organs, having been tissue typed, were forcibly removed from
your body, to be sold at a high price to affluent Chinese or foreign patients.
You die from this process. And this was all done by the government of your own
country. This is sadly happening in China right now to Falun Gong
practitioners, whose only crime is an adherence to the principles of
truthfulness, compassion and tolerance.
Please help raise awareness about this brutal torture and genocide among your
family and friends.
Your signature can make a big difference.
