Falun Gong (Law Wheel Qigong)
By Li Hongzhi
With the publication of Falun Gong in 1993, Mr. Li Hongzhi forever changed the face of qigong practice in China and, by extension, the world over. For the first time, the original, profound principles of qigong were made available to the general public. What's more, the powerful practice of Falun Dafa and its benefits were now available to all. In but a few years hundreds of thousands of persons in China came to learn Falun Gong through "the Book." One is hard pressed to find a book of comparable impact in recent years.
Falun Gong has since been translated into nearly a dozen languages, enabling Falun Dafa's transmission to a variety of cultures and continents; it has proven itself to transcend cultural barriers. Falun Gong is an introductory book, systematically spelling out the practice of Falun Gong in plain, accessible language. It thus serves as an ideal entry point to beginning the practice. It's profundity nevertheless far surpasses other qigong books.
Key contents of Falun Gong include discussion of:
- what is qigong, including its origins, goals, and effects
- Falun Gong's relation to qigong and Buddhism
- the origins, meaning, and genuine elimination of illness
- the true meaning of integrated cultivation of mind and body
- how to perform Falun Gong's exercises (with instructions and photo illustrations)
- detailed explanation of how the exercises function and are unique
