Falun Gong is a system of meditation exercises and self-improvement handed down from ancient China. It is based on the principles ofTruth, Compassion, and Tolerance.
Falun Gong's worldwide popularity has helped millions of people improve and balance their body and mind. It is estimated that there are 100 million people practicing Falun Gong in over 60 countries.
Falun Gong's popularity frightened former Chinese leader Jiang Zemin and in 1999 he started an all-out campaign to destroy the practice through illegal arrest, imprisonment, and torture. At least 982 have been verified as being tortured to death. Others are suffering torture and abuse in prisons, forced labor camps, and psychiatric hospitals.
