Zhuan Falun =

Countless other commenters have described this book, Zhuan Falun, as the best book they've ever read; and I must agree with each of them. For those who commented about how odd certain things in this book were, they must understand that throughout Asian history and culture the things described have been recorded and known of and not just within the teachings of Falun Gong; it is not as if Mr. Li invented anything he spoke of. Even if one does not believe in these teachings, it does not mean that they should slander or try to convince others that Falun Gong is a cult, a sect, etc. I myself am a practitioner. Before you think to yourself that I am writing this comment and defending Falun Gong simply because I am a practitioner, think about it: Why would I have become a practitioner and have practiced for over 7 years in the first place if I had felt that it were a bad practice? I am just like the rest of you; I was obviously not a practitioner FOREVER, as I became one when I felt the practice was genuinely good. I live in the United States where we have the fundamental freedom of belief; yet I have still faced persecution to a degree, directly from the Chinese Government. A couple comments were written by people who used to practice Falun Gong and then gave it up, and there is a reason why there are only a couple. If you meet a GENUINE practitioner and ask them to describe their experiences to you, they will tell you from the bottom of their hearts the positive things they have learned and received from practicing. Those who gave up the practice gave up something extraordinarily profound; they may give you reasons such as "Falun Gong frowns upon the use of medicine"...but in actuality, if one were a true practitioner, they would not seek to cure any illness to begin with; anyways, if you wanted to take medicine, not a single practitioner would forbid you from doing so. Who can stop you from taking medicine anyways? For the ones who felt Falun Gong was taking over their lives and were too afraid to tell their family members what they truly felt about the practice, is it Falun Gong's fault that they were too afraid to even speak up to their own families? I don't believe it is at all. Cultivation practice is for each individual, and nobody is even permitted to practice for the sake of others. There is no membership for Falun Gong whatsoever. Furthermore, it is up to you to believe whether millions and millions of people with illnesses cured directly after practicing Falun Gong were simply "at the right place at the right time." A very simple example: I personally know a family who practices Falun Gong with 3 young children who are around the ages of 5 and 7. These children have practiced Falun Gong since they were very young, and they have never been sick in their entire lives and they do not even understand the concept of hospitals or doctors. Again, if you believe this is just some big coincidence and they are just insanely healthy children, tha

I am a physician, trained in Western Science. I recognize that much of what is said in Li's book is too much for some people to hear. But I really recommend that EVERYONE read this book. Don't expect anything; the truth that is meant for you, will FIND you. This book, on the very first read, explained many things that have happened in my life that no other system of philosophy could explain, and I now have a peace and a strength that I did not have before. Quite frankly, the exercises seemed SILLY . . . until I tried them. All I can say is I hope you try them, too.

This book has been genuinely guiding me like no other spiritual book or practice I have ever read/practiced before...all the questions I have had regarding life and death, illness, spritual cultivation etc. have been answered by sincerely studying Zhuan Falun. I would recommend it to anyone, anyone at all, regardless of their opinions on spirituality, current beliefs, or opinions on Falun Dafa. I have, through the rational understandings gained through studying the book and self-reflection, improved my moral standards, achieved increasing inner peace and tranquillity, and many other great benefits.

After the first time I read through the book, I felt that this is a great and unique book about Qi Gong and teaching how to become a good person as well. Before I read this book, I had many puzzles why Qi Gong and Tai Chi can provide significant health benefits for millions of practitioners around the world, even though there are so many books available. After the first reading, I found that I wanted to read it again and again. Through many times of reading of Zhuan Falun, I have realized that Zhuan Falun is the greatest book and a scripture of extensive knowledge and profound scholarship in the history of the cycle of mankind. Zhuan Falun not only reveals what Qi Gong truly is, why and how Qi Gong can heal illnesses, and why advanced-level Qi Gong can benefit people much more than physical exercise and modern medicine, but also many essential issues such as prehistoric culture, the true origin and the true meaning of human life, and the reality of different time and spaces. Most significantly, the book reveals the highest cosmic quality: Zhen-Shan-Ren (Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance), and the Great Way of Falun Cultivation taught in the book can truly guide people to higher levels. The book is not associated with any religions, however can give guidance to anyone in their cultivation including those who have religious beliefs.One significant feature of this book is that the author incorporates modern sciences and modern medical sciences to elucidate phenomena not revealed or discovered in modern society and illustrate advanced principles.
