Exercise 1: Buddha Showing a Thousand
Hands
 |
Principles: At the core of Buddha
Showing a Thousand Hands is stretching of the body. This
stretching unblocks areas where energy is congested,
stimulates the energy within the body and under the skin
so that it circulates vigorously, and automatically
absorbs a great amount of energy from the universe. This
enables all of the meridians in a practitioner’s body to
open at the beginning. When one performs this exercise,
the body will have a special feeling of warmth and of
the existence of a strong energy field. This is caused
by the stretching and opening of all meridians
throughout the body. Buddha Showing a Thousand Hands is
composed of eight movements. The movements are quite
simple, yet they control many things that are evolved by
the cultivation method as a whole. At the same time,
they enable practitioners to quickly enter the state of
being surrounded by an energy field. Practitioners
should perform these movements as a foundational
exercise. They are usually done first, and are one of
the strengthening methods for one’s cultivation
practice. -

Exercise 2: The Falun Standing
Stance
 |
Principle: Falun Standing Stance is
a tranquil standing meditation composed of four
wheel-holding positions. Frequent performance of Falun
Standing Stance will facilitate the complete opening of
the entire body. It is a comprehensive means of
cultivation practice that enhances wisdom, increases
strength, raises one’s level, and strengthens divine
powers. The movements are simple, but much can be
achieved through the exercise. Beginners’ arms may feel
heavy and painful. After doing the exercises, the whole
body will immediately feel relaxed, without feeling the
kind of fatigue that comes from working. When
practitioners increase the time and frequency of the
exercise, they can feel a Falun rotating between the
arms. The movements of Falun Standing Stance should be
done naturally. Don’t intentionally pursue swaying. It
is normal to move slightly, but obvious swaying should
be controlled. The longer the exercise time, the better,
but it differs from person to person. Upon entering into
tranquility, do not lose awareness that you’re
exercising, but instead maintain it.

Exercise 3: Penetrating the Two Cosmic
Extremes
 |
Principles: Penetrating the Two
Cosmic Extremes channels the cosmos’ energy and mixes it
with the energy inside one’s body. A great amount of
energy is expelled and taken in during this exercise,
enabling a practitioner to purify his or her body in a
very short time. At the same time, the exercise opens
the meridians on top of the head and unblocks the
passages underneath the feet. The hands move up and down
according to the energy inside the body and the
mechanisms outside the body. The upward-moving energy
dashes out of the top of the head and travels directly
to the upper cosmic extreme; the downward-moving energy
is ejected out from the bottom of the feet and rushes
directly to the lower cosmic extreme. After the energy
returns from both extremes it is then emitted in the
opposite direction. The hand movements are done nine
times. - Excerpted

Exercise 4: The Great Heavenly
Circuit
 |
Principles:
Falun
Heavenly Circuit enables the energy of the human body to
circulate over large areas—that is, not just in one or
several meridians, but from the entire yin side to the
entire yang side of the body, back and forth
continuously. This exercise is far beyond the usual
methods of opening the meridians or the Great and Small
Heavenly Circuits. Falun Heavenly Circuit is an
intermediate-level cultivation method. With the previous
three exercises as a base, the meridians of the entire
body (including the Great Heavenly Circuit) can be
quickly opened through performing this exercise. From
top to bottom, the meridians will be gradually connected
throughout the entire body. The most outstanding feature
of this exercise is its use of the Falun rotation to
rectify all abnormal conditions in the human body. This
enables the human body—a small universe—to return to its
original state and enables all meridians inside the body
to be unblocked. When this state is reached, one has
achieved a very high level within In-Triple-World-Law
cultivation. When doing this exercise, both hands follow
the energy mechanisms. The movements are gradual, slow,
and smooth. - Excerpted

Exercise 5: Strengthening Divine
Powers
 |
Principles: Strengthening Divine
Powers is a tranquil cultivation exercise. It’s a
multi-purpose exercise that strengthens divine powers
(including supernormal abilities) and gong potency by
turning the Falun using Buddha hand signs. This exercise
is above the intermediate level and was originally a
secret exercise. Performing this exercise requires
sitting with both legs crossed. Single-leg crossing is
acceptable at the initial stage if double-leg crossing
cannot be done.[48] One is eventually required to sit
with both legs crossed. During the exercise, the flow of
energy is strong and the energy field around the body is
quite large. The longer the legs are crossed, the
better. It depends on one’s endurance. The longer one
sits, the more intense the exercise and the faster one’s
gong grows. Don’t think about anything when performing
this exercise—no mind-intent is involved. From
tranquility enter into ding.[49] But your Main
Consciousness must be aware that you’re the one who is
doing the exercise. - Excerpted from The
