Falun Dafa, also known as Falun Gong, is most accurately described as a “cultivation practice.” Cultivation with Falun Dafa refers to the improvement of one’s heart and mind through the careful study of the universal principle of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance (or Tolerance). Practice means meditating and exercising to purify and energize the body. “Falun” refers to “Law Wheel”, “Dafa” refers to “Great Way,” and “Falun Dafa” translates to “The Great Cultivation Practice Way of Law Wheel.”

Falun Dafa’s effectiveness in improving health and its profound principles have quickly made the practice immensely popular throughout the entire world. Since its introduction to the public in 1992 by its founder, Master Li Hongzhi, Falun Dafa has attracted tens of millions of people from all walks of life in more than 70 countries. However, in China where it’s originated, the Communist regime thinks its popularity a threat and has persecuted its practitioners for eight years.

All Falun Dafa activities are free of charge. The practice of Falun Dafa is simple, yet profound and effective. Primarily, it consists of two components: self-improvement through studying Mr. Li’s teachings, and performing Falun Dafa’s five gentle exercises. The exercises, which include a meditation, are easy to learn, enjoyable, and at the same time both relaxing and energizing. Through practicing the principle, together with the exercises, practitioners are able to achieve physical health, mental balance, inner peace and spiritual purity.
