“I was fine after less than two months of practicing, and I haven’t had a headache again in seventeen years. I can’t remember what it’s like to have a headache now.”
September 28, 2015 – Zhang Zengjun, a 57-year-old web management engineer at Google, looks gentle and elegant, and walks with a steady stride. But, seventeen years ago, he was tormented by a strange headache.
“At that time, I had headache on the weekends, but I was fine as soon as I went to work. I especially like to sleep, but when I slept, I had a headache, I couldn’t close my eyes, and I got a little better when I read a book and used my brain.” Zhang Zengjun first went to consult Western medicine. He graduated from the University of Colorado with a master’s degree in integrated telecommunications management, and thought that headache was really a piece of cake for modern medicine.
However, he was disappointed by the results of the Western medical examination. “They said due to my high blood viscosity, if my brain was not active, the blood would not flow, and my head would hurt. They said there was no cure, and that I have to work a little longer and use my brain more.” Zhang Zengjun felt that this was not a solution, and people would be exhausted without rest after a few days. He wondered: Why did he get this disease?
He was going to try his luck again at Chinese medicine, but the Chinese physician’s answer was even more straightforward, “I can’t cure a disease that I have never seen.”
It seemed that there was no cure, but Zhang Zengjun wouldn’t give up. He kept asking around for a cure, because his headache was really unbearable. Later, when he was going to try qigong, he heard about Falun Gong. Falun Gong is a Buddhist cultivation practice based on the principle of “truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance.” Falun Gong first began in China’s Jilin Province in 1992, and now, the practice has about 100 million practitioners in more than 100 countries around the world.
“I was fine after less than two months of practicing, and I haven’t had a headache again in seventeen years. I can’t remember what it’s like to have a headache now.” Zhang Zengjun no longer has a headache, and he has persisted in practicing Falun Gong to this day.
After work, Zhang Zengjun likes to practice the exercises in Google’s spacious and comfortable fitness room with colleagues, who also practice Falun Gong. Falun Gong’s five sets of simple and beautiful exercises make them happy both physically and mentally. He often talks to his friends about the three realms of being disease-free.
“Exercising more and doing gymnastics can also make you healthy.” Zhang Zengjun believes that this primary realm, which everyone can recognize, is definitely good for the body. But, the effect is often superficial and not thorough enough, and does not solve the fundamental problem, because it is also common for athletes to get sick.
“The second realm is to be a good person.” Zhang Zengjun said that being a good person is the main factor in achieving good health, which is not a far-fetched association, but a profound experience since he practiced Falun Gong. He explained that to be a good person is to think more about others, take lightly about fame and fortune, and be down-to-earth. By doing so, one’s mental pressure is also being relieved, thus, the person becomes peaceful and calm. With this mentality, he handles his interactions with his bosses and colleagues with ease. When a tolerant state of mind, his health naturally gets better.
However, Zhang Zengjun also saw that it’s difficult to be a good person in modern society, and it is difficult for people to handle themselves well in the face of various desires and temptations. Zhang Zengjun said: “Cultivation is a beautiful thing, that is, to take the initiative to improve oneself in accordance with the cosmic principle of ‘Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance’, and make oneself better.”
The Silicon Valley engineer firmly believes that: “Only when you reach the realm of cultivation will you be truly disease-free.”

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
