Beware of the trick of curing all diseases with… original energy!

Transmitting energy from outer space (?!)

“Cosmic Spiritual Energy” or “Drum Root Energy” (commonly known as root energy), was founded by Le Van Phuc. According to information from the book “Stem Cells - Your Great Physician”, one of the three books that the group that founded the root energy sold to students that we had access to, Le Van Phuc was born in 1956, in Phuoc Ly hamlet, Dai Phuoc commune, Nhon Trach district, Bien Hoa province, now Dong Nai.

To create “closeness” with students, in class, Le Van Phuc always calls himself “uncle”. This is even explained in the book that “Mr. Le Van Phuc never wanted or thought of himself as a teacher, but thought that he was assigned the task of being a “connector”, so with students, he always called himself uncle and wanted students to call him Uncle Phuc”.

To add to the mystery, just like the casessuddenly have supernatural powers after a serious illness, being struck by lightning or bitten by a rabid dog without dying… have appeared in recent years; the Original Energy group also “fabricated” a story that no one can verify. Specifically, “In 1978, he followed his family to settle in the United States. 25 years ago, after a near-death illness, he was cured by the energy transmission method. Then, on the night of September 21, 2009, thanks to good fortune, he met a special teacher. Since then, the teacher has taught him for 5 years with a lot of knowledge about Original Energy, the applications of the subject…”.

In 2016, Le Van Phuc returned to Vietnam and began teaching the first students in Dong Nai and repeatedly tried to apply for a license to operate, in order to legalize Original Energy, but was not approved by Vietnamese authorities. In 2018, Le Van Phuc returned to the US to establish the "Center for guiding the transmission of energy to the community" in the state of California, and at the same time, organized online Original Energy classes, attracting many participants. In Vietnam, those who participate in learning Original Energy are collectively called the Vietnamese Bronze Drum Original Energy (using the image of a bronze drum as a symbol with the slogan "The era of wisdom - Love - Peace"). In addition, small groups of Original Energy are also named after localities to distinguish them from the main group. For example, in Nghe An, there is a closed group "NLG LQVT KNM - NA", which means the Original Energy of the New Era of the Universe's Spiritual Light - Nghe An.

As if to “prove” that his appearance was appointed by the Creator, Le Van Phuc also affirmed, “A beautiful soul talked to me. He said that he came from a place far away from the earth, from the universe. That he came from the Creator’s civilization, a civilization with highly developed intelligence. He said that this was the first time he had come to our planet. He asked the Creator’s permission to come to the earth, to help solve the difficulties of humanity, so that we can continue to evolve.”

With the trick of curing all diseases, from cancer, depression, stomach diseases, bone and joint diseases, diabetes, to infertility, sterility... through the method of taking energy from extraterrestrial civilizations and transmitting it to participating members by looking at Le Van Phuc's forehead at each livestream, participating members only need to study online from grade 1 to grade 5 to be able to cure incurable diseases... Obviously, this is unscientific, but in a short time, many people are still gullible and participate in online Original Energy classes from grade 1 to grade 3 and go to Malaysia, Thailand and the US to study advanced classes and grades 4 and 5.

There are signs of profiteering.

Accessing the social network Facebook, we typed in the search phrase “Original Energy” or “Original Energy of Bronze Drums”… and hundreds of results were found. Although there are many Original Energy Facebook groups and pages, they all lead to the pages “NLG Energy University”, “NLG Vietnam Global” and the YouTube channel “NLG Energy University”, to follow the live schedule at 2:00 p.m. every day (Vietnam time).

It is worth mentioning that each page has thousands of likes and followers. For open groups, participants only need to click “like” the page to be able to follow the class. As for closed groups, participants must be invited by a group member to be able to log in to the link to join the class.

According to the investigation and updated information received from the authorities, in Nghe An, there are currently about 140 people who have directly participated in the Original Energy classes. Participants in Nghe An have established a closed group with the abbreviated name "NLG LQVT KNM - NA". The members are mainly from Vinh City, Hung Nguyen, Cua Lo Town and some neighboring districts.

Being taken to the house and talking with a case of participating in the Original Energy class in Vinh City, we learned that Mr. A. has participated in the Original Energy class since 2022 until now. After studying online classes 1, 2, 3 online, he registered to go to Thailand to study an advanced class for 1 week at a cost of tens of millions of VND, including airfare, food, and hotel. Not to mention buying 3 books: "Stem cells - Your great doctor" for 750,000 VND, "Heart of the soul" for 1.1 million VND and "Common denominator" for 950,000 VND. Not to mention that through the Original Energy class, Mr. A. was also invited to buy "clean food" such as chicken, goose, and pork from a company named DP, located in Long Thanh, Dong Nai.

From the information shared by the participants of the Original Energy, we searched for the name of the company providing clean food, Original Energy DP, and on the NLG Vietnam global page, there were many articles advertising this farm. Many personal accounts also praised the farm owner for using Original Energy to talk to chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs. An account named KYN even exclaimed "I love the geese so much" when the farm owner posted a video of newly hatched geese being raised under a heating lamp. A TC account even commented "look how cute they are". In fact, this facility has posted images of raising chickens, geese, ducks, or pigs for slaughter and sale on Original Energy groups. However, they do not care much about whether the farm has been granted a certificate of eligibility for animal husbandry by the competent authority, and whether the food source has been inspected for food hygiene and safety.

In Hung Nguyen district, according to information from the authorities, 14 people have joined the Original Energy Program, introduced by Ms. HTP, a resident of Hung Nguyen town. Most of the people who joined this group have good personal backgrounds, are retired officials, and join with the purpose of improving their health and preventing diseases. Most of the people have attended classes 1, 2, and 3 online, free of charge. There are 3 people who have gone to Thailand and Malaysia to attend classes 4 and advanced classes.

According to Lieutenant Colonel Phan Thanh Binh - Deputy Head of Hung Nguyen District Police, through monitoring, the group "Global Vietnamese NLG" currently has hundreds of thousands of followers. This group has used many ways to propagate, attract students, and lead participants from the initial purpose of curiosity; learning to cure diseases and improve health. Then, guiding students to spiritual issues, promoting the power of the universe. In order to strengthen and increase the trust of students, Original Energy also takes advantage of people who claim to be professors, doctors abroad or doctors working at major hospitals, retired police officers, etc. to propagate and attract participants.

Lieutenant Colonel Phan Thanh Binh added: In addition to spreading false propaganda, "Original Energy of Vietnamese Bronze Drums" also has signs of economic profiteering. Because, for classes 1, 2, 3, the Original Energy group is usually completely free for students, but on the condition that they must register in advance to arrange classes and log into the chat room to receive the energy of outer space civilization, through looking at the forehead of "Uncle Phuc". However, according to many information technology experts, it is not exactly a "pie in the sky", because according to the advertising payment policy of Facebook, YouTube... the more people like the page, follow the group, the more the founders of that page earn a huge amount of money from online advertising services.

Not to mention, in the lessons, the participants all direct the learners to higher classes such as grades 3 and 4 and are called upon to pay tuition, group support fees, and self-study books at "exorbitant" prices. For advanced grades 3 or grades 4 and 5, they have to spend tens of millions of dong (more expensive than a trip abroad) to go to Thailand, Malaysia, or even the US to study.

The worship of Le Van Phuc, the deification of energy from the universe will make many people waste time, affect their health, especially their eyesight (because they have to look continuously for hours at the phone and computer screen). The worship of Original Energy will also make them ignore medical treatment methods, miss the golden opportunity to treat the disease when it is still in the early stages. Not to mention, the participants include retired officials, people with a level of awareness but have a negative ideology about history, worshiping things that do not exist, causing confusion among the people.

“In the face of the complicated developments of Original Energy, the Provincial Police have directed local police to closely monitor and at the same time, increase propaganda to help people raise their vigilance against unscientific information about Original Energy, not to believe in unproven training and treatment methods that can potentially affect health and social order and safety. At the same time, it is necessary to consider when participating in any illegal organization, association or group to avoid losing money and getting sick,” said a Provincial Police leader.

The organization or group of Original Energy has never been recognized by any management agency or scientific research institute in Vietnam and the treatment of diseases with Original Energy lacks scientific basis. In fact, worshiping and following Original Energy will cause people who have just discovered a disease to ignore and lose faith in medical treatment methods that have been recognized by science, missing the golden opportunity to treat the disease when it is still in its early stages. This leads to loss of time, loss of money, loss of health, not to mention the fact that "buying clean food" is really safe. Therefore, on the part of the people, we need to be very alert. On the part of the authorities, we need to quickly step in to promote propaganda, based on the provisions of the law to eliminate groups operating in the area, avoid attracting and expanding the number of participants. At the same time, check the circulation of documents related to Original Energy, because in reality, these are floating documents, if spread in the community, it will be very harmful...
