Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Office of the Governor
Greetings:
It is my pleasure to join with the Greater Philadelphia Falun Dafa Association in support of May 2013 as “Falun Dafa Month” in Pennsylvania. I extend recognition to Mr. Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa, for his efforts to improve the general wellness of citizens throughout the nation.
The Chinese art of Qigong practices meditation to benefit the body, mind, and spirit by relieving stress, increasing energy levels and improving coordination. Falun Dafa, a self-improvement Qigong practice rooted in ancient Chinese culture, consists of five exercises and core principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. This month marks the 21st anniversary of the public introduction of Falun Dafa.
As Governor, and on behalf of all Pennsylvanians, I am pleased to support May 2013 as “Falun Dafa Month” in the Commonwealth. Please accept my best wishes for an enjoyable and successful month-long celebration.
Tom Corbett Governor
May 2013
