I was born in a martial arts family. Influenced by my family, I have been exposed to Shaolin ancient round boxing since I was a child. When I was a child, I often went out to treat people with my great-grandfather who had profound kung fu. When I was a teenager, I practiced boxing with my grandfather (Wu Youde) wholeheartedly. Later, I got the guidance of my master Zhang Qinghe, and I systematically studied and mastered the essence of Zen boxing handed down by my ancestors. Over the years, through long-term practice and enlightenment, I have a certain understanding and understanding of the wisdom and compassion of Shaolin Zen boxing.

Zen boxing is a profound martial art that Shaolin monks and folk martial artists fought against each other in the Central Plains for more than a thousand years, silently guarding the pure land of Shaolin, and combining the long-standing Chinese martial arts culture, health preservation culture, Zen culture and Buddhist compassion. It is profound, unpretentious, both rigid and flexible, suitable for all ages. The most important thing in its connotation is that it is driven by compassion and directed at people's hearts, which can make people feel at ease, reassure everyone and make the country and people safe.
The practice of Zen boxing comes from nature. Originated from people's daily life, people in daily life, through inner consciousness, accumulated in accordance with the requirements of boxing tactics, step by step, both inside and outside, and finally reached the realm of Zen, martial arts and medical enlightenment.
The change in Gong Zhuang should be a change in action. When you move forward, you should move your hips first, and your hips should hang over your shoulders. Don't try to change the strength of your legs. Only when your whole body is in a relaxed state can you be moderately elastic, flexible and undulating. The whole body is a whole, and changes are controlled by the heart. To improve Zen boxing, we should always taste the use of mind in all parts of the body and exercise for a long time, so as to achieve the goal of integrating form and spirit in one breath. The practice of Zen Boxing starts from Gong Zhuang, then the practice of footwork and simple movements, then the practice of routines, and finally the practice of instruments.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying in martial arts that southern boxing is northern leg. Therefore, Shaolin Zen boxing is mainly based on root training. Shaolin boxing should not only have a solid chassis, but also have a flexible foundation. The first formula says: The whole body is covered with hands, and you can walk from your feet. This sentence illustrates the importance of roots. The power of Shaolin Zen boxing is a kind of natural rotating and tumbling power, also called mixed pile. Long-term practice can make you light, agile, healthy and stable. Start slowly from each trend and always master the coordinated use of the whole body. As said in the Summary of Boxing, the body moves by rolling, the hands roll outward, the body moves by legs and hands together, and the three sections are self-arranged. The naturalness of posture plays a decisive role in the generation of strength. The formula of boxing says: practice when lifting and lowering, and the combination of six ways should be natural. Of course, a hair can pierce a crown, a tooth can break gold, a tongue can destroy a tooth, and a nail can penetrate a bone. When the four functions come together and return to the heart, the inner strength comes out. Working hard for a long time will naturally speed up, which is the role of explosive power. But it must be clear that the explosive power of Shaolin Zen boxing comes from the organic combination of all parts of the body and the filling of internal qi, that is, the combination of internal and external.
The evolution of Zen boxing should constantly absorb the experience of predecessors and combine its own practice. Just as the basic training method of Supreme Zen Boxing requires, the elbows are placed horizontally without leaving the ribs, and the tiger sounds silently when walking, and the dragon is unpredictable, showing the rigor of attack and defense, the performance of attack and defense, and the inscrutability of internal strength. Therefore, the more proficient in kung fu, the more you follow every move, the more energetic you are, the closer the internal and external ties are, the more flexible you are, and the endless changes. For example, Chen Mo, my great-grandfather's teacher, walked like a fly and crossed the river without wet shoes. My great-grandfather (silent) ground his elbow into powder. Of course, their amazing kung fu can't be achieved by external practice. Shaolin Zen boxing has a more important aspect-internal cultivation.
Zen boxing is different from competitive martial arts, it is superior to martial arts, and it is integrated with people's thoughts and behaviors, closely related and complementary. Without good practice, it is difficult to understand the connotation of Shaolin Wushu. Without inner practice, it is difficult to improve the artistic conception of kung fu, let alone achieve transformation. Inner cultivation can be divided into mind cultivation, Xiu De and Zen enlightenment. Self-cultivation and Xiu De run through our daily life, that is, we should be calm, ready to help others, give up others and be compassionate. I found that those who have achieved something in Zen boxing practice all have the noble sentiments of bodhisattva's heart, silent dedication and no return. Cultivating Xiu De's mind can make people's external behaviors and thoughts reach a tacit understanding. People's qi is unobstructed, and the functions of the five internal organs are increased. Because Zen is qi, people's thoughts are pure, their will is single-minded, and their distractions are eliminated. Naturally, it is easy to improve their kung fu.
Zen was realized in the process of cultivating Xiu De's mind. Kung Fu is inseparable from Zen, and practicing Gu Chan Wushu should be in a natural state of movement. Such as tigers roaring in the forest, monkeys jumping in mountain streams, birds flying in the blue sky in Wan Li and horses running in the vast grassland. But people always have a lot of troubles, some of which will lead to stagnation of qi and blood and hinder the progress of kung fu. The wisdom of Zen can open people's own hearts, realize and achieve self-perfection, and produce a natural state.
Zen is a state of mind that transcends the self. Zen is natural, comfortable and beautiful, which can be fully realized through persistent practice. Zen is an inner wisdom and the predecessor of Wushu. You can't practice Zen boxing if you don't know Zen. Zen boxing can integrate human body and mind with nature and even the whole universe. But everyone's ideas are different, and they can only be realized by themselves in practice. Master once expounded the principles of Zen. He said: Zen is not a superstition, but a cultivation of mind, Xiu De and goodness according to Buddhism, so as to keep a normal heart, a natural heart, a compassionate heart and a heart for helping the world.
Zen is the foundation of martial arts, and martial arts is the embodiment of Zen. Zen boxing is extremely rich in connotation, which is not an ostentation, but the crystallization of life wisdom. If Zen fails, martial arts cannot be achieved. My master said: Zen boxing is incomplete at zero. Zen boxing is like the sea, which contains all the bits and pieces of internal cultivation.
The cultivation of Zen boxing is a process of one's physical and mental cultivation, so as to achieve the purpose of getting rid of illness and strengthening self-defense. It includes health preservation and martial arts, among which health preservation is particularly important.
Health preservation is the source of kung fu. If you can't cultivate it, you can't practice it Zen boxing emphasizes the combination of cultivation and practice. Practicing Zen boxing can make people's internal organs function better and better, and the meridians and blood vessels operate more and more harmoniously. It is necessary to combine Shaolin therapy with dietotherapy, keep your mind open and be light and vegetarian. Without nature, human beings can't survive. Man and nature are an inseparable whole. Health preservation is the harmony between man and nature. This requires an understanding of the yin-yang transformation of the human body and everything in nature. Internal and external changes have their own characteristics. Only by understanding and understanding nature can we understand the mystery of human body and infer the mystery of nature from its characteristics. Shaolin Zen Boxing learns the mysteries of the human body by observing nature, and obtains inspiration from the human body to understand nature, thus achieving the unity of man and nature. A better understanding of the relationship between zang-fu organs and meridians and the meaning of the theory of yin and yang of the five elements is an important factor for kungfu to reach the highest level, which shows the importance of health preservation. Health care and medical skills are a family. If you know health care, you know medicine.
In a word, Zen boxing is natural, and physical and mental health marks the harmony between man and nature. The core of Zen boxing is to nourish the heart, Xiu De and prolong life. The cultivation method is that Zen, martial arts and medicine complement each other. Nursing is very important in meditation and helpful to practice. If you want to achieve high attainments in Kung Fu, you need a long-term honing process, a deep understanding of the relationship between Zen and Wushu, and the help of zang-fu organs to Wushu, so as to improve Kung Fu.
Zen boxing is compassionate, incorporating the infinite wisdom of Buddhists, and shining with the auspicious light of compassion everywhere. This can be reflected in its internal value orientation, pursuing the harmony between people, people and people, and people and nature. People have high intelligence. If they are used in the right way, they will get good results, but if they are used in the wrong way, they will suffer endless harm. Everyone yearns for a better life, but a better life needs wisdom. Inside and outside the cent, Zen Boxing pursues the inner beauty of nature. Growth wisdom can be sought from the outside, but it will bring disaster to others, nature and all kinds of creatures. Zen boxing, on the other hand, focuses on seeking wisdom from the inside and from the heart. The process of practicing Zen boxing is also a process of exploring wisdom from the heart, making one's mind more and more compassionate, thus radiating the inner charm of human nature.
Zen boxing is full of compassion, which is a kind of knowledge to gain life wisdom through compassion cultivation and a bright road to a better life.
In a word, Shaolin Ancient Round Boxing is a unique treasure in Wushu. It is true and compassionate, it is based on reality, and compassion is the soul. It not only contains the supreme kung fu and Zen Buddhism, but also has priceless cultural essence, life wisdom and a good way to save the world ... By practicing the ancient Shaolin Round Boxing, you can understand the mystery of the unity of man and nature, save life and death, keep fit, seek happiness for the whole world, cultivate your temperament and enjoy the inner happiness of life.
