He details the systemic persecution of practitioners in China, including forced organ harvesting, and addresses the detention of Bulgarian practitioners in Serbia, highlighting the struggle for human rights and spiritual freedom.
Martin Garchev is now in the studio. Hello.
Hello.
We wondered how a successor, a member of the Faungong, might be presented.
Yes, I am a follower of Faungong.
Alright, first tell us what this "faungong" is, because Bulgaria isn't very well known.
Yes.
Organization, practice— I don't know how you call it.
Faugong is a practice for self-perfection.
It's actually a method of contemplation that teaches us.
Actually, it is for the perfection of a person's spirit and body.
How did you find out about her? How did you join? Who did you stand with?
I found out from my friend, who found out from his girlfriend.
I actually joined.
I think I always had one question for myself.
Actually, what do we have to do while we're here?
And I thought there must be some greater purpose to our existence as organisms, as human beings.
After he told me he had met her at a self-improvement workshop,
which were based on principles of truth, kindness, and patience, I laughed at first.
And I heard a little within our society, just as one might observe how to adhere to these principles.
Truth, kindness, and patience. Difficult?
Yes, it's very difficult.
Really, he asked me about a month ago to read this book. Just to take a look at it.
After about a month, I agreed and read the booklet. It is the smaller of the two booklets, the entry booklet.
which actually answers my questions, which it has always had.
Is this the question—why are we here, what must we accomplish?
The question is why we are here and what we need to accomplish.
To be honest, kind, and patient. Is that how it comes across? Or am I perhaps overcomplicating it a bit?
Coffin. Actually, these three points are essentially the principles I provide to the auditor.
Which are universal principles.
Yes, they are for all people. It is unknown whether they follow this religion.
Exactly, absolutely. Are they theists or not?
Yes, exactly. In fact, he has been passing on the practice to absolutely everyone.
with no distinction between east, west, north, and south.
I mean, ethnicities. There are no ethnicities. It is delivered to absolutely all people.
Is she from China? Yes, she is from China.
What do you do otherwise?
Otherwise, I work and study. I work at two jobs. Yes, and I'm studying at the same time.
And you're working at two places? Yes. I can afford it at the moment, just fine.
Life, right, sometimes...
You must be not only truly good and patient,
Yes, even if you survive, because everything still has money.
Yes, yes. Unfortunately. One must live, in the material sense, in accordance with what is good.
Absolutely, yes.
Now, he tells you not this story about the Bulgarian woman,
Since, as you explained a moment ago, it is merely a spiritual teaching.
Absolutely, yes.
However, in this case, 9 people, 9 of them are Bulgarians, are going to protest.
against the policy being pursued by the Chinese leadership.
And specifically, is it Kotsyan, who is in Bulgaria?
Yes, just...
Why was it necessary for you to move from the spiritual to the material and politics, actually?
First, I want to say, very clearly and precisely,
What's up with Funda, as I said, the path has been perfected...
Faundafa is the old name, as you said.
That is the ancient name.
We're talking about the same thing.
Yes, for the same one. It's just that "Faundafa" is a term that's already in use, which I think is more commonly used.
Alright.
There is no way that once I have been perfected, there could be political bias.
Just what follows the path I have been striving to perfect, which is truly orthodox.
It has nothing to do with politics or such interests.
People associate this with it because they see that many practitioners are located in various countries.
They are protesting against the forced organ harvesting practiced in China.
That's where everything ends with heart, which we can say has nothing to do with politics.
What does forcible taking mean? What do they do?
It means that since the 99th year, practitioners in China have been...
Faunafá.
Yes, the practice of faun da fa in China is declared an illegal self-improvement practice.
She even heard somewhere that it had been declared a cult.
Absolutely, yes.
Is it declared as a cult in China?
So when China declares this practice illegal,
You're also carrying out a very large-scale propaganda campaign.
She says she's a sect, that she's into the occult, that people hardly even recognize her, not even her own children.
You're little kids, we have documentary films that we broadcast.
Regarding what is happening there.
Why are they feeling this way? Why this attitude?
So...
What does this practice threaten in the eyes of the Chinese government?
Yes, I will tell you.
So, the teacher took him in the year 92.
By the year 99, practitioners numbered between 70 and 100 million people.
Therefore, thousands of people entered the practice each day.
And all these people begin to truly observe the principles...
Not just from China, right?
It's from China only from the beginning.
It's only in China until the 99th year.
And as I told you, these people primarily adhere to the principles of truth.
With kindness and patience in life.
These people begin to stand on very high moral principles.
and yes, return the valuable items.
How?
As a person succeeds in following...
Does kindness exclude any aggressive ways of imposing this teaching or practice?
Absolutely, yes. All of this proves it.
Any single protest at any event,
which was done in order to shoot the truth,
It can prove that these are the most peaceful protests in the world.
Then why are the reactions of the Chinese government so hostile toward these authors?
Because the truth is spoken out where protests take place.
What is the truth?
The truth about the persecutions and the forced organ removal.
And this has become...
What does it mean by forced organ removal?
This means that once I realize I am a practicing Falan-dafa practitioner,
In 1992, I looked up to him as an example,
They're coming to pick me up tonight from outside.
They send the conscripts to prison and so on.
I am being sentenced.
It doesn't matter what you're being punished for.
Because...
She comes from the highest level.
The fact that you are somehow violating rights already.
Jurisdiction, perhaps, of China.
Why is this right forbidden?
Yes, it's already banned and says it's for the eye.
That further means that you are violating someone's rights in some way.
And how about you?
Those people were sentenced.
One year old, three years old.
As I told you, shut down the consolager and so on.
And then, once they've already entered, it's not known why.
What happens to these people?
Have the people left?
Many people have gone out, and many have not gone out.
What are these people saying?
Because when practice begins from the beginning,
You receive many commendations and acknowledgments for everything.
with which to bring to...
At what level? From whom does he receive them?
Directly from the government.
From China?
Yes. This happens up to 1999.
What's going on?
The people from 1998.
It has been proven through numerous studies,
These are actually some very healthy people.
All people who follow the practice.
Despite the fact that they live in this polluted megacity.
Tell me, what does practice mean?
What does it mean to follow?
Say something...
I'm saying it's the practice.
Actually, this is...
Approximately, the practice in the exercises
We have five exercises that are delayed.
Two of them are meditative.
They won't take them from you
about two hours a day
Every day?
Yes, but just because they are
suitable...
The practice is designed to be in society.
For this reason, if a person has time to do
morning exercise
and he must go to work, he can go
In the afternoon, find time for the second one.
Thus, it may be torn apart.
I'm saying they must start and finish.
This is the practical part
in the exercise. Everything else
It's held in this book.
If I could just show it...
Let's show it, otherwise he might take offense and blame us.
some studio.
No problem.
I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
Here is the book. It's called Joan Fay.
What does this mean?
Joan Fawn
The title of this book.
The first book is called Faun Gong.
The wheel is round.
Can we take a look?
You can tell us about it during this time.
The wheel is round, as I told you.
So.
Fa...
Is this... the examiner?
Li, Hong, Joe? Yes, that's the examiner.
Where does this person reside?
We live in the States. Yeah.
He has been going out
a little from China
before
The pursuit will begin.
Actually,
What you see there is... A little bit of me
Tell you the truth, because we see
A swastika. Yes. This one
swastika, let's put it that way,
Why didn't you tell me about it, actually
people today
He will get used to seeing her from Hitler.
Yes. In fact, this swastika
It recognizes itself in
Sveta... Yes, it's a bit different, but
The first impression is of...
It is actually from around 2500 years ago.
It exists and has been known since ancient times.
It's good to have, since it connects to Hitler.
Could it have been exactly her?
Oh, we're the same. She's different.
the sign is bent
on the other hand, in fact
Hitler stole the swastika.
So much that we steal like this imposes that
Never again to be erased
from the consciousness of civilization

Yes. That's why I say that
Actually, people...
Teachers say that once upon a time
He was the holy man, when

Essence,
You are
the symbol for that
which the enlightened possess
beings
Alright, let's say
We are already getting deep into the essence.
on learning
Physical exercises, spiritual ones,
What are the messages?
How exactly
People are taught to be good
And do they speak the truth?
Yes.
In this book, fundamental principles are provided,
cosmic principles
through which a person, when he learns them,
on one level,
which they knew before
the people,
before, before
Long before.
And they have observed them,
and there was greater Bulgarian success
among the people
Alright, what have you achieved?
following these principles?
For example, the prediction of karma,
Loss is profit.
Absolutely.
The image of Falun.
Demoniac intervention in
self-perfection, for example.
Yes, actually these are things,
that have existed since antiquity
The teacher is just bringing them out now.
It explains better why they happen.
You're roughly saying,
Loss is profit.
This is actually a universal principle,
which he reveals to them
in which he says how a person
Wins and loses.
And when a person wins something,
Consequently, it loses. I can give you an example.
But there's a Bulgarian proverb like that.
A man does not know what he gains,
when he loses,
And what does he lose when he wins.
Absolutely. In fact, many people don't know
So many words about why they are exactly like this.
I say, so, therefore
there is something, isn't there
As I was saying, the universe,
Cannot miss something that is happening.
And when a person knows the principles,
He manages to live in harmony.
And so I say.
Therefore, when a person
You're hurting me, for some reason,
I must be following the path ahead
Perfection, I don't want to be a good person.
It is with us
what exists in our society
This is our dimension.
He hurts me, it's considered intensified.
Exactly because I shut up.
Alright, if I slap you one,
What are you going to do? Very crude.
The farmer gives, but he is popular.
Well, actually, if a person
You've stepped well already, in my opinion
in practice,
I should have just managed to smile
to the man from the meeting,
because everyone knows that...
It's not very well-mannered behavior on your part.
Older people used to be called
Let us not descend to the level of the man we met.
Some say it means...
As if they slap you on one cheek,
This is based on Christian principles, isn't it?
Give it back to the other one. Absolutely. That's actually the principle.
Loss and sorrow.
So, if they hit you once, if you can manage to resolve it
The other... How are you doing, aren't you?
How do you handle anger?
How do you cope with the purely human aspect,
the sooner the instinctive desire, a person to be
Preserve yourself by responding to the other?
On the other's aggression?
On the other's desire
Crush it?
Not only in physical, in general
in a spiritual sense
Exactly. We're talking about the spiritual.
And I think he is much higher up
of the physical.
And for this reason, I believe that
if I could only keep my calm
Inside yourself... Can you?
And this man
You always try your best.
Are there cases when it does not happen from this?
Of course. I think a person
They set out, there's a long way to walk.
that's impossible
How much does it cost at the end of this road?
I think,
The goal is everywhere, at every step.
They have been suspected.
in every orthodox religion.
A person attains enlightenment in the madrasah.
Alright. Why did this story suddenly come up now?
In Belgrade?
Having realized that your colleagues already
They have been released from the fee.
Let's say this summit meeting
It started on December 16.
Yes.
In Belgrade, with the participation of the Chinese premier

And leaders of 15 countries.

You also want to go and protest.
In fact, you are not going by accident.
Yes.
I knew it,

Well, as I told you, I'm working at two places.

Of course, everyone depends according to their own circumstances.
There is a possibility for him to do this thing.
Go and participate.
In this case, it's just something that
outdoor and some televisions,
They say people there that
This is organized by us.
The event.
This protest.
Essence, it is not organized by us.
This is organized by Serbian practitioners.
This can be verified.
And proven, of course.
Please note that you are joining
your colleagues, let's say from Serbia.
Yes, they are practitioners.
What did he want to
Express this protest?
Yes, just let me add one more thing before that.
The other thing is that we know the protest was
Illegal, because they are not permitted.
You do not have permission for this protest.
Isn't this the permission?
and on top of that
The basis of these people's argument is
Arrested?
Essence, for this reason,
What we know is, we didn't set out from here
with some brochures and transparencies
And so on. Just a meeting.
It has already been organized, since they were doing
Resistant to this thing, and they said so.
Our practitioners hit the mark.
There were people from other countries there, most likely.

and exchange experiences. What
It wasn't forbidden for us to do it.
Exercises in the park.
This is against us
the laws of Serbia. At that moment
The essence was not prohibited.
You can do the exercises.
And what about the protest itself?
Would it express itself?
Protests are usually expressed in the form of
Yes, let's transfer the transponders.
respectively before
the place where we want to be
Yes, let's file a protest.
We're standing there and there's nothing
cries, carriages, and so on.
What's on these transcripts?
The transcript says, roughly, that
for the fund in practice
Writes about the pursuit. Naturally, because
We are focusing entirely on this matter.
On the pursuit of practitioners
and upon the stolen sunrise
on their instruments.
Has it been proven that such a thing exists?
Yes, absolutely. There are hundreds of pieces of evidence.
Alright, any international bodies and organizations
Haven't human rights organizations spoken out by now?
Yes, December 2013

How many are there in Bulgaria
the supporters of this
This practice, as you say?
I can't say exactly. Around 50 people.
50, which is not much.
Yes, a little bit was.
A little, but not much.
Against the backdrop of how many million you mentioned have joined.
100 million
Alright.
The question is that out of these 50,
Nine were detained at
the Serbian air.
Seven, because I have the latest information.
The one I was watching on BGNS is for 9.
Do you know these people?
Yes, I know these people personally.
You could have been among them as well.
if you hadn't been engaged,
On what grounds are they being detained?
They say that
threaten national security.
Serious charge.
The fact that they were released yesterday
means that he cannot withstand it.
No, absolutely not.
They've given them some from the beginning.
a statement by which they would acknowledge this thing.
That's right, yes. To avoid extradition,
Just as it has happened to some other people
From Croatia, I think it was.
Who are to be extradited sooner.
As I said, they have given them the declaration.
They absolutely reject it.
They did not agree to write.
Absolutely, yes.
I want to say that 48 hours ago
They have not been granted the right to a telephone call.
not even a lawyer.
Which is a violation of rights
for their country.
They violated their own rights in Serbia.
What are the Bulgarian authorities doing?
Do we know at that time?
Yes, immediately when for the first time
We are receiving the connection with...
Essence, one of the phones leaves

Immediately
It turns to the Foreign Ministry.
There they connect with the consul office,

They immediately start to

We thank them, among other things, for this.
because they have shown...
Yes, because they have shown their support
Immediately.
Nothing has happened to them there.
They behaved well overall with them.
Immediately? But 48 hours!
They were standing there without a phone and without a lawyer.
Yes, that has happened.
Then what is the position of Foreign?
And the consul?
Well, essence,
while they connect you here with...
with our coordinator
for Bulgaria,
while she makes contact
and they set things in motion,
This is the time that passes.
And so it is, then? So the Serbs let them go.
No, they're already holding them.
And they let them go.
Essence, on 14
They are holding them.
On the 14th? No, the 16th.
Yes, but they were earlier.
At 2 a.m., as far as I understand,
I wanted.
Something like that happened.
Another thing I want to say is that
practicing
Falu, Serbia
who lives in Nij, that person had been followed
Before that. From when?
From the agent.
On...
To China? To China.
Bro, here it is. Essence,
We would like to say that
Repressions are now extending beyond China.
Those who were, they met face to face.

Is there any country besides China?
in which it is prohibited?
Thus, in this way,
I think that
No, but I'm not sure I'd want to say for certain.
I have doubts about one country,
but I won't say it, so as to
to say something incorrect
Alright, so you don't crash it

It will turn out to be without a solution. Well done, Bulgaria.
What is the institute?
There is no ban in Bulgaria.
Anyone who can do so is free to

Quickly. This is practice, training.
This is a teaching.
It's not religion.
No, let's not mix it up.
Essence, I understand it like this, that
People say

To be a sect, there must be a religion.
This is my understanding of this issue.
This is
the teaching of Buddha—the school, but

It is also from the Buddha school.

I'm just saying, compare them, that's all
For this, a sect can exist.

There is also a sect there.
Because this is a matter of religion.
This is a teaching from
Buddhism is a school of thought, and even that is not a religion.
Therefore, the spread cannot be between me and you.
A sect. And what religion are you?
Do you confess?
I want to say that I
I have always believed in Jesus Christ.
Never...
I haven't been to churches and so on.
I didn't deny it. And in difficult moments
I already told you, fix me and no more
I won't do it.
We are all going through difficult times.
Yes, then I meet, and unfortunately so.
You pass through the difficult moment and forget it.
Can you say that you are an Orthodox Christian?
Confessing this despair.
No, I follow the practice.
I am skeptical about Alandafa.
Does this prevent you from being a Christian?
This does not prevent me from believing in Jesus Christ
And yes, I believe He exists.
He was here and was doing
what he has done
I do not deny it in any way.
Will you continue to follow
This pounding?
Yes, absolutely.
Despite these difficulties, let's say,
not difficulties, but persecutions that are so...
Yes, I think so,
What's the actual meaning?
these persecutions
