Your True “Home” is not on This Earth – The Great (Cultivation) Way of the Law Wheel

Our true “home” is not on this earth. We were originally divine beings in higher realms of the universe. To go back “home”, we must follow a true spiritual cultivation practice. This journey of self-cultivation is the true purpose of our human lives.

Falun Dafa is the Great (Cultivation) Way of the Law Wheel. Teacher Li Hongzhi said “It was Dafa that created time and space, the multitude of lives and species, and all of creation; all that exists owes to it, with nothing outside of it. All of these are the tangible expressions, at different planes, of Dafa’s qualities: zhen (Truthfulness), shan (Compassion), and ren (Forbearance).”

Deviation from these qualities results in beings distancing themselves from their original, pure nature. The human realm, being the lowest and worst plane, serves as a painful environment where you can undergo trials and tribulations. Through these experiences, you have the opportunity to eliminate karma, cultivate virtue, and ultimately return to your divine origins.

Dafa is not a religion; it has no form. You don’t have to pay any fee to gain Dafa because money is not the thing we take with us when we leave this life. Yet Dafa can save and deliver you back to heaven.

The Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners in China

By the late 1990s, Falun Dafa had around 70-100 million practitioners, which were more than the total membership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at the time. The CCP was officially atheist and has long been suspicious of any group that promoted spiritual teachings.

Falun Dafa, while not being political, encouraged a moral philosophy centered on Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. This moral cultivation challenged the CCP’s ideology on materialism, violence, and dictatorship.

The CCP then launched massive propaganda campaigns to demonize Falun Dafa, portraying it as a dangerous cult. State-controlled media spread fabricated stories about practitioners committing bizarre acts or being mentally ill. The CCP aimed to sway public opinion against the practice and justify its violent actions.

Human rights groups documented that Dafa practitioners have experienced forced labor, torture, sexual abuse, illegal imprisonment, organ harvesting, and even extrajudicial killings.

What’s unique is that Falun Dafa practitioners didn’t fight back violently. Despite many years of intense persecution, Falun Dafa still has millions of practitioners worldwide and has become a symbol of spiritual resilience and peaceful resistance.

Back then when Buddha Shakyamuni taught the Fa, he faced persecution from the old religions. When Jesus spread the Fa, he also faced persecution from his own people. None of this was coincidental. As you study the Fa, you can realize that this is a law of the cosmos.

How to Return “Home”

Inside the book Zhuan Falun, Master Li Hongzhi reveals how the universe works at different levels, why you lose and gain, the higher spiritual laws of the cosmos, the root cause of your sickness/suffering, the meaning of your life, the true Way to return “home”, and so on.

This is the link to the online version of the book.

Master Li Hongzhi said “after reading the book for the first time, you will find that it teaches the principles of how to be a good person; if you read the book again, you will find that what it explains are not secular principles, and that it is a book that transcends secular knowledge; if you are able to read it a third time, you will find that it is a divine book; if you keep reading it, you won’t be able to put it down.

In China, there are now people who have read the book over a hundred times and who are still reading it, and they simply cannot put it down. The book has simply so many inner meanings, and the more you read, the more of them you will see.”¹

If you decide to read the book, there are two things you should know before reading it:

1. You should read the book without any desire: If you seek fame, money, health, or spiritual power, you will not gain Dafa.
2. You should read the book until the end: You won’t complete your journey if you give up halfway. You have to decide to finish the book, or you should not read the book at all.

After reading the book, it’s your choice to decide whether you should follow Dafa. Dafa is a self-cultivation practice. You will encounter spiritual experiences in your life as you repeatedly read the book.

There is a physical aspect of the practice as well, called qigong, which contains 5 gentle exercises that purify your bodies and strengthen your spiritual powers. They are all listed on the website Falun Dafa.

If you’re a sincere cultivator who is willing to work on yourself, you can rest assured that Master Li Hongzhi can help you return to your original nature.
