Kalimpong September 2, 2015:
Chris a ‘Falun Dafa’ practitioner, who is German by birth, reaches
Kalimpong to introduce a Chinese spiritual practice that combines meditation
and yogas with a moral philosophy. She was teaching the spiritual exercise in
Saptashree Gyanpeeth (SGP) since Tuesday.
With a positive response
of Tapan Pradhan-the director of the school, located in Taxari road, Chris got
an opportunity to create awareness about the ‘wheel of dharma’ to the students
of the said school.
‘Falun Dafa is a
spiritual practice of slow exercises that has something to do with the ‘law wheel
practice’ or the dharma law’ said Chris after the students left the school auditorium.
She further explained
that ‘Fa’ means universal law and ‘Lun’ means wheel which interestingly has
more to do with the Dharma wheel practice.
When asked about the
motive of visiting Himalayan belts, Chris responded saying that her visit is not
intended to promote ‘Falun Dafa’ as it is not a religion and the practice has
no set of doctrines which makes it free to practice with a positive forbearance.
It was known that this Chinese
spiritual practice has been introduced in India since last 15 years and Chris,
a ‘Falun Dafa’ practitioner has been in India since last 25 years and lives in
U.P. She later said that she had been to Sikkim and Ladakh to introduce the spiritual
practice.
It is read that falun dafa
has its own history in Northeast China which was slowly spread to the world for
its accuracy in spirituality.
Meanwhile, Chris will
be in Kalimpong till 5th September and will catch a train to U.P
after that, she has not thought about re-visiting this place; she also said
that this visit was ‘unplanned.’
‘I knew no one when I
first stepped to Sikkim, I didn’t know where to stay, it’s the same with
Kalimpong, I have no one here’ said Chris adding that the people is very
welcoming here.
However, Tapan Pradhan,
the director of SGP who is a septuagenarian apparently dealing with back problems
said that the exercises Chris taught is easy to practice, ‘It was nice to be
introduced with Falun Dafa, exercises are slow and easy to practice’ said
Pradhan.
