Practitioner Vlad found out about Falun Gong five years ago, when he was searching for a spiritual path.
“I have benefited a lot, especially in regards to spiritual insights. I was looking for something righteous, and I wanted to learn higher principles. Through my wife, I found Falun Gong.”
“The Falun Gong book of teachings, Zhuan Falun, greatly opened my mind, and helped me enlighten to a new understanding of life and the universe, and answered all my questions. Everything around me suddenly became clear. I obtained a completely new perspective. By following the teachings of Falun Gong, I became clearer on the meaning of life, and gained more inner peace.”
Amanda, who started practicing Falun Gong in 1999, said that besides gaining good health, she has gained more inner peace in this busy modern society. “I cannot imagine my life without Falun Gong. It has given me the most wonderful life,” she said.
Grace, who often had conflicts with her mother, said that practicing Falun Gong has helped her to bring peacefulness and harmony into her relationship with her mother.
