Wudang Monk Spade: The heaviest weapon of Taoists

For more:
www.cgtn.com/s...
Wudang Monk Spade is a versatile weapon that allows practitioners to use defense as attack and retreat as advance, combining agility with poise. In olden times, Taoists often carried spades when traveling that could be used for self-defense or to pave the road, hence it was also called "convenient spade." Zhang Haoran, 22, has been based in the Wudang Mountains, a sacred Taoist area in China, for eight years. Wudang Monk Spade is his main focus. #kungfu #kungfumasters #wushu

Very nice! "Accumulation" is probably the best word to describe how these skills manifest. No 'Chosen Ones', no magic formulas - just years of conscientious dedication. Well done! :)

Yes, that is the correct attitude. My motto for my students to learn is: "Ten years to black belt. A lifetime to mastery." I am now in my fiftieth year of study and practice. Those who are green continue to grow. Don't call this old man master. I am but an older student. Humility leads to wisdom. Laoshr #60 Ching Yi Kung Fu Association

China offers more than just modern life, it still has it's roots in tradition.

and the massacre of tibetans and oppression of its people to the point of concentration camp levels of cruel, i got arrested in china for "anti government crimes" when all i did was ask a policeman for directions to my hotel, didnt even check in, i spent 3 months stuck in a cell

Not the people, it's the government.

Awesome insight into the Wudang Monk's life. May I know if they accept foreign disciples to their monastic life?

[@victoriaregina8344]

Only Japanese?!!!!!!!!!

@@victoriaregina8344 你在说什么

[@ftd7435]

YES. There are Americans, Europeans, Africans and East Asian disciples in Wudang. One achieved Grandmaster level and is now teaching Wudang kung fu in Spain.

[@KFP385]

Was there for 6 months back in '13. Yes. They have been accepting foreign disciples since more than a decade ago. It's now an industry there, with kungfu schools offering lessons and board, whilst often teaching classes of foreign students in english

What is with this sweat and pushing your body? What happened to one of Daoist virtues of moderation 儉 ? I'm confused.

这其实就不好了 方便产是佛家的 和道家没关系 。。其实 不应该加进来

[@ts9zs528]

你的误解源自电视剧《西游记》和《水浒传》的道具处理问题。 在古代小说原著中，沙僧使用的兵器是“降妖宝杖”，鲁智深使用的兵器是“禅杖”，二者都不带铲头，都是棍型的短杖。 在现实中，铲是佛道二教游方时通用的器械，并不专属于佛教。
