Im not familiar w/ jane fonda. Its exercises are classified as Qigong and qigong is usually considered kin to yoga or something. They promote good health.
 Quoting: FalunDafa


Oh ok.

Now why would the commies in china care about their people doing something akin to yoga?

Where does it rub the regime wrong in it's practice?
 Quoting: IAMIAM


it's way more than that. a guy i know is some sort of hardcore member, he basically told me their master, the dude who made up this Fallen Dafa thing, claimed he could talk to the Martians, postponed earth destruction for 50 years, etc. Lots of weird shit cult garbage. if it's just chigong nobody would ban it. elderly people practice chigong nearly every day in China.

Well, based on your logic: the CCP only bans bad stuff, right? Like free will and things of that nature... All of those references are taken out of context and poorly quoted.
Even if Falun Dafa practitioners were crazy, do they deserve to die and be tortured and prosecuted for it? What have we harmed through our practice? Our core principles are truthfulness compassion and tolerance. What kind of 'cult' tries to trick people into being good?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 56999928


I don't know much about chinese government's policy (is that what CCP stands for?), it just sounded too bizarre for my taste when some dude say he can plead to the martians to postpone earth destruction and saved mankind, and I've seen UFOs with my own eyes. If it works for you and your friends then it's great. Just beware sometimes a drug may appear effective, the undesirable side effects may kick in later.

Ccp is chinese communist party. And i understand, its not for everyone. But you should decide that its not for you based on your own studies. In the interview youre referencing, i believe master Li only describes aliens and testifies to their existence. He never claimes to have begged aliens for anything. I dont remember that interview verbatim, but what your friend told you is at least slightly off. I encourage you to look into falun dafa for your self if you find the time.

Re: Falun Dafa is good!
Well, I made this thread to clarify the truth to anyone interested or those who may have a misconception of what Falun Dafa is all about. Those of you who have never heard of Falun Dafa are probably wondering what it is, so I suppose it would be best to start with an introduction.

What is Falun Dafa?

Falun Dafa, also known as Falun Gong, is a traditional Chinese self-cultivation practice that improves mental and physical wellness through a set of exercises, meditation and development of one's heart/mind nature. The practice is based on the universal principles of Truthfulness Compassion and Forbearance.
This ancient practice, originally taught in private only, was first introduced to the public in 1992 by Mr. Li Hongzhi in China. Since that time, millions of practitioners worldwide have reported dramatic improvements in health and a deepened spiritual awareness.

I am a practitioner of Falun Dafa and I believe it to be a great practice and I have benefitted greatly from it. Although most people that learn about Falun Dafa feel that it is very good, not everyone shares this opinion. I'll try my best to clarify the facts that would lead one to have a negative opinion of it.

Most negative opinions of Falun Dafa stem from the lies put out about it by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The CCP began persecuting Falun Dafa in 1999 and hasn't stopped since. They slander Falun Dafa in all forms of media and even go so far as to detain and torture Falun Dafa practitioners until they renounce their Falun Dafa affiliation or die from the torture. This, to me, seems quite extreme. Why should a practice that promotes Truthfulness Compassion and Forbearance be persecuted to such an extent?

Feel free to list your thoughts, questions, comments, and concerns below and I'd be happy to address them.


Of course, every story has 2 sides. Falun Dafa supporters will always say positive things about it and those who oppose it will always say negative things. Before forming a concrete opinion of Falun Dafa, i suggest investigating the source and deciding for yourself: www.falundafa.org provides all the reading and exercise material you may need. Zhuan Falun is considered the most essential and systematic book of Falun Dafa, so I suggest starting there.

Thanks for reading!
 Quoting: FalunDafa


In college I had an upper level Economics course I was taking, and I was assigned a project with a Chinese foreign exchange student. She gave me a book about Falun Gong after we were finished. She returned to China during the Summer of 1999 and was supposed to return for classes in the Fall, but she did not return, and an Econ professor I knew told me they had lost contact with her.

Im sorry to hear that.. assuming she was a practitioner, i hope she didnt get mixed up in the persecution over there. The persecution was a lot worse back around that time.

Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance are the foundation of Falun Dafa.

The Chinese Communist Party cannot have folks running around telling the truth. Nor do they tolerate compassion for those truth tellers who the party persecutes.

The terrorists attacks which will be launched in the United States will be blamed upon middle eastern religious fanatics, Christian fundamentalists, white supremacists, Patriots, or Militias. A more immediate result of these operations will be the increased use of military forces, weaponry, and equipment such as tanks and armored personnel carriers in civilian law enforcement, the suspension or elimination of Habeas Corpus, the elimination of jury trials, the attempted disarming of the American People, and the institution of martial law with show-trials conducted by a tribunal of judges. - William Cooper 1997 (RIP)

Falun Dafa practitioners dont get involved in politics. I think the rapid growth of Fallun Dafa in the 90s led to the CCP feeling threatened, as if maybe it was some sort of uprising against them. their torture and killing of practitioners is a bit extreme i think though. im surprised its still allowed to go on, even today..

The people who practice it strive to be truthful, kind hearted and tolerant. This does not fit in well with the Communist agenda.

There were too many people practicing it and the dictator got very paranoid and jealous, then he banned it.

That is right. They attack and jail even people who support or help Falun Gong.

Lawyers are often roughed up and thumped on in the courtroom when they defend Falun Gong practitioners.

Warning:

None of the above is factual. It just isn't. I have seen this propaganda before, these very same accusation.

Falun Gong was banned because there were more people practicing Falun Gong than members of the Communist Party, and that made the dictator very frightened.

If it was the weird cult described above, there would not have been 60 million plus people practicing it, including family members of the highest ranking officials, professors, high ranking military, scientists, writers, etc.

The Chinese people are not stupid, they survived Mao's horrible Great Cultural Revolution, for Heaven's sake.
