Peng Shanshan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peng Shanshan, also known as Belinda Pang, is a Falun Gong practitioner from Hong Kong, who emerged in 2000 declaring herself "the new Falun Gong Master", attracting some followers among practitioners of Falun Gong. She is not recognised as a part of the practice by the majority of practitioners or by the founder, Li Hongzhi. A small number of overseas Falun Gong practitioners became followers and supporters of the Hong Kong-based Peng Shanshan as their new teacher, replacing Li Hongzhi, who lives in New York.

Ms Tao Hua Lian, a Chinese-Australian disciple of Peng, says: "We have only one great universal law and one master, but the master can accommodate in different physical bodies. At the early stage, the master has shown up in (the physical body of) Li Hongzhi. Now Master Peng Shanshan is born."

Most Falun Gong practitioners do not acknowledge Peng's claims. However Peng's actions has caused a fight between followers of Pang and Li in Hong Kong, leading to accusations stated in the media by both parties.[1] Today there is no active Hong Kong Falun Gong group.

Li Hongzhi, about the former Falun Gong practitioners who followed Peng, stated that "...I have no such students. If there are people who are willing to follow her to bring disorder to the Fa, they can go with her—what I want are disciples who practice cultivation in an upright and noble manner, magnificent Gods who are unshakable and solid, like diamond."[2]
