Since its public introduction in 1992, Falun Dafa has evoked strong responses from all over the world. It has expounded the highest principles of the cosmos and provided the priceless treasure of its books to the community of cultivators. At the same time, it has also given answers to the countless mysteries that have puzzled mankind since ancient times. Through experiences during cultivation, people have come to realize that behind its simple language lie indescribably immense inner meanings. In terms of improving the moral standard of human society, the spread of Falun Dafa has brought about such obvious results in such a short period of time, clearly demonstrating its powerful spirit. Without a question, as a brand new outlook on the cosmos, society and way of living, Falun Dafa has quickly gained the acceptance and respect of people all over the world. In addition, through the numerous principles that it has brought to the forefront, the stimulation that Falun Dafa has provided for the advancement of modern science is immeasurable.
During the course of the development of modern science, when one chooses the subject of his research, the subject of his search also chooses him. A human must use organs such as his eyes, ears, and touch to choose the subject of his research. But the subject of his research has also chosen not to show to him its more real and fundamental side, such as its true physical state at the molecular or atomic level. Because of this, the organs of a human can only validate the surface existence of substances. At the same time, these substances have also chosen to validate to humans that the perceptions of their organs that exist under such a limited scope are real. Once a giant system that contains mutual validations by human organs of countless subjects is established, it becomes modern science. The convergence of human feelings and human understandings makes it difficult to find any holes in this closed system. The science of humankind has even developed on this basis for several hundred years. Today, it has reached a rigid state. But this is not the only path that the science of humankind can travel on.
The exposition of Falun Dafa states that the cosmos exists in multiple dimensions and at different energy levels. On the fundamental level, the cosmos is composed of energy and not the substances that we perceive it to be composed of. The discoveries that have been made by empirical science are more than enough to prove that the exposition of Falun Dafa is completely correct. People already know that using mechanical energy to change the structure of molecules is a very difficult task, and using chemical energy to change the structure of atoms is also difficult. The energy of sub-atomic particles form atoms and determine their structures. The energy of atoms then form molecules and determine their structures. The collective energy of molecules then determines the structure of objects in front of our eyes. From the formation of objects that one can observe with one's own eyes, to the formation of molecules, atoms, protons or even more microscopic particles, they are all different layers of energy formed by more different layers of energy. Inside of a specific layer of energy, there must be its own individual laws of movement from the microscopic to the macroscopic level, thus forming each level's own, unique time and space.
Using today's scientific methods, people are used to drawing on notions that they have acquired through their organs to try to understand the spatial dimensions of molecular energy and atomic energy. They think that there is a clear hierarchy of particles from the lowest to the highest. This way of thinking is just like a blind person trying to imagine what an elephant looks like by touching random parts of its body. Depending on which part of the elephant's body that the blind person touches, a different picture of the elephant emerges in his head. This method can only offer a limited understanding within a confined scope. People cannot possibly gain a complete understanding through this method. The limited wavelengths of the light that a person's eyes can recognize ensure that it is not possible for a person to observe the actual existence of the spatial dimensions of molecules and atoms with these eyes. Yet everything that we see is being controlled by the laws of the movement of energy in those dimensions. No matter how developed humankind's science becomes, it is still limited to this layer of substances as defined by our own eyes. The measurements and ways of understanding offered by physics and chemistry also cannot directly discover the actual ways of existence of molecules and atoms. The only understanding that one can obtain is through using some apparatus or some other means to enable their existence to be reflected, so that it is within the scope of perception by our own organs. That is to say that the phenomena that people have observed are simply a portion of the energy of other dimensions being reflected in our dimension, the portion that can be measured by and is within the scope of an apparatus invented by humans.
Atoms are constantly moving. Atomic energy exists everywhere, but people do not have a way to understand or even perceive its existence at that level. Only when the atomic energy is released to the confined scope that is within the understanding of humans, can it be measured and understood. Relative to this energy layer that is the spatial dimension of mankind, the type of energy that atoms possess exists in a stable structure and does not emit any energy. People then have no way to recognize them. But relative to the level of energy and spatial dimension that it exists in, the particles are everywhere and constantly moving. Just like our own spatial dimension, everything is moving. Within various energy layers and spatial dimensions, humans have created their own home, which is also a self-stabilizing spatial dimension. It does not have any impact on the existence of a stable structure of the atomic energy and spatial dimension. At the same time, what happens inside other stable energy layers and spatial dimensions? We know that once the atoms become unstable, or if its stability is being destroyed deliberately by humans, a small portion of the energy might get released into this dimension that we humans live in. Then there would be a huge explosion, which can cause enormous damage. The difference in their energy levels is just too great. Direct command and usage of the atomic energy and spatial dimension means that people can create a more robust, longer lasting and more powerful world.
The relative stability of different energy layers and spatial dimensions makes it impossible for people to find ways to understand them, but that does not mean they do not exist. Human beings are simply crawling inside of the level that is made up by the lowest energy layer and spatial dimension. Modern science has chosen to study and understand an extremely superficial surface level, which absolutely cannot provide a complete picture of the existence of the cosmos. Looking at it from another angle, if a proton is an ocean, then an atom is just a river, a molecule is just a strong current within the river, and what humans observe with the naked eye are simply just sprinkles of water released by the current. In terms of the scope of energy itself or the different levels of energy, our current understanding is incredibly puny.
If we examine the laws of energy of objects at a low-level energy layer and spatial dimension from a high-level layer of energy and spatial dimension, we can clearly see that latter is completely independent from the former. But the former is strictly under the control of the latter. Between the spatial dimensions created by energy at different levels, there must exist mutually stabilizing separation and formation, as well as independent and dependent relationships. If we abandon the way of thinking developed by modern science, which believes that physical substances are the most fundamental, and think of the cosmos with a new view which believes that energy is the most fundamental unit of existence, then what will happen? In terms of everything that we can see with our own eyes and everything in the cosmos that we cannot see with our eyes, in this cosmos composed of immense energy, regardless of whether they are alive or not in our eyes, they all exist as energy. Then are the distinctions between them truly the same as we currently understand them to be? To go from focusing on substances to focusing on energy, from understanding a single spatial dimension to understanding multiple dimensions, the thinking that the modern science has 'reached its end' will certainly be broken through, and a new chapter in history will begin.
Once people achieve a breakthrough and reach a state where they can use the principles and methods mentioned by Falun Dafa, modern science will experience a big leap forward. Then people will gradually discard their self-confining, shallow understandings and establish new ways of understanding the universe. They will study this dimension from the point of view of the atomic energy dimension, instead of using this dimension as seen by their own eyes to study the atomic energy dimension. They will study the problems of the earth from the point of view of the entire cosmos, and will no longer try to explain the cosmos from the point of view of the earth.
The teachings expounded by Falun Dafa are for cultivation and not for advancing the science and technology of humankind. But it contains many major expositions on the science of the humankind. It is difficult for people recognize this for the time being. Once they can directly understand the laws of existence for the molecular and atomic energy layers and spatial dimensions, they will take a look back and realize how limited the current system established between our organs and research subjects truly is. 'If human beings are able to take a fresh look at themselves as well as the universe and change their rigid mentalities, humankind will make a leap forward'('Lunyu', Zhuan Falun). Using the theories of multiple energy layers and spatial dimensions, people might come to realize that objects that exist in different dimensions as energy could travel to other dimensions. Additionally, objects can become big or small, and they can appear and disappear at will. The usage of energy is also not as confined as it is at the present. Those supernormal phenomena that are so-called 'higher than science' are simply the movement of different energy clusters at different energy layers and spatial dimensions. At present, people cannot understand these things, because they have confined themselves within the boundary of modern science. If people want to understand these 'higher than science' phenomena, they must break out of the current boundaries, establish a path for new science, achieve that realm of understanding, and understand things within that realm. We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a new chapter of human civilization.
