Gerard Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Another excellent documentary by the Extreme Pilgrim, the Anglican vicar: Pete Owen-Jones. Link. The Xinyiba section starts at around 30:25. Enjoy! Edited February 26, 2015 by Gerard 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mudfoot Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Shi Deshen (If I remember ringt) says that the important parts of xinyiba are never publicly shown. So the clip might look good, but knowing it is most likely a severly watered down version it is hard to get excited. Too bad. But perhaps you were sarcastic, saying that the modern Shaolin is more about money and less about chan-wu-yi. Edited July 6, 2015 by Mudfoot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spotless Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Shaolin has a certain Harvard like cachet - and for good reason. Both are intense and both produce a certain product that has a rigorous base. Having the "H" letter in your resume is incredibly powerful. Having the "S" letter is equally powerful within those zones of understanding. Part of the product is a certain hardy base - I have met many from Harvard (being married to one) and many from Shaolin as my teacher was a former head teacher and Monk at Shaolin. They are in a sense a horse of a different color. As in any large school it is easy to miss the trees in the forest - even the most profound among them.

John Delroy Posted July 12, 2015 Really cool documentary! I like the part where he discovers that the breath leads the movement. He made real progress in a very short amount of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
