Regaining a New Life from Cultivating Falun Dafa
2010-08-24In the autumn of 1998, my family members obtained the main book of Falun Dafa practice, Zhuan Falun, from a doctor. After I finished reading the preface, I was immediately attracted by the profound teachings of the Fa that I hadn't found in any other books. I kept reading and felt very comfortable and peaceful. In this book I found answers to all my questions about life and death. The book Zhuan Falun lit a lamp in my confused heart and brought hope to my life. -

My Family Witnessed the Power of Dafa

When I Was Dying of Cancer, Falun Dafa Saved My Life
2010-08-17I turned 35 this year. Before I began practising Falun Gong I was diagnosed with cancer that had already metastasised, and I was given only a few months to live. I went to see doctors in Jinan and Beijing but they all said the same thing. I could not accept this diagnosis, in body or spirit.

My Entire Family Is Blessed from Practising Falun Dafa
2010-08-15I felt like a seedling getting the first rain after a long drought. It has now been 15 years since I joined in the mighty current of Falun Dafa cultivation.

Without the merciful protection from Teacher, I would not have been able to come to be what I am today. -

The Chinese Government Never Officially "Banned" Falun Gong, Part 3
2010-07-26After July 20, 1999, media or even scholarly works outside of China have often used the words, "The Chinese government has banned Falun Gong since July of 1999." It is my belief that the Chinese Communist Party has never had a legal basis for its eleven-year persecution of Falun Gong, because the Chinese government never officially banned Falun Gong. -
The Chinese Government Never Officially "Banned" Falun Gong, Part 2

The second cause is that the CCP intentionally uses this term in its propaganda to confuse public opinion. A third cause is their lack of understanding of what it means to ban something in a legal sense.
