8.6. How is it like to live with Falun Gong believers? (与法轮功信徒一起生活是一种怎样的体验?)
This will obviously vary from believer to believer, but here is Ciro Santilli (三西猴, anti-CCP fanatic, 反中共狂热, stupid cunt, 傻屄, CIA agent, CIA特工, 肏你妈的)'s experience.
Like any other religion that is taken seriously, they spend several hours per week doing their standard religious activities: Is Falun Gong a religion? 法轮功是一个宗教吗?.
Ciro has never seen them, or anyone we know from FLG say or do something that he consider morally incorrect because of FLG.
This does not prevent his wife from working normally.
Ciro’s mother-in-law, who is retired, dedicates all her time to Falun Gong when she is not taking care of the house.
Ciro’s mother is also religious (Protestant), and he gets a very similar feeling about both groups.
Like other religions, Falun Gong gives them meaning in life, and Ciro admires that they pursue their belief energetically, just as he persues his beliefs energetically.
Ciro much prefers that Ciro’s mother-in-law does Falun Gong, which is a noble meaningful goal, rather than watch stupid crap on television.
Also, although he is agnostic, Ciro also lives in a similar way.
Ciro’s religion is that of science and technology, and he pursue it fervently by trying to learn and teach it and spend several hours a week doing that, even when it does not give him money immediately.
If Ciro pursue his meaning, why should he prevent anyone from pursuing theirs?
Previously, Ciro’s wife and mother-in-law would sometimes try to persuade him to learn Falun Gong, which was annoying.
But every time he told them very clearly that he knows where to download the books if I want to, and that he may never want to read them, and that his wife must either accept this fact or leave him.
And they have accepted that: they think Ciro’s a good person, and they can accept that you can also be a good person even without doing Falun Gong.
Ciro does feel Falun Gong makes Ciro’s mother-in-law more reluctant to use or actively search for medication or treatment. But he thinks it is also linked to the fact that she didn’t have a very good education or a good health system around. However, if Ciro and his wife give her something, she will take it. Ciro’s wife does not have any resistance to medication.
One thing that does worry Ciro is that Ciro’s mother in law sleeps too little every night, doing one of the Falun Gong meditations late in the evening, and then waking up very early to a long series of reading and exercise sessions. But it is hard to say if she would be any different without Falun Gong, it could just be her nature.
