Shoot. I missed it again this year. :(

Shaolin Temple Day was yesterday - it is observed on March 21st.

I did not see any festivities. I only remembered because it was one of annual reminders...

I assume nothing happened last year since nothing was reported. What do you think tomorrow might bring? Anyone still remember?

Is anything happening for 2021? I haven't heard. But I'll burn some incense to celebrate.

I just searched the web and the article above is all that I could find. Kudos to Shi Yanyue for remembering.

Glad to see LA is still observing this. I haven't heard of anything happening here in the SF Bay Area. We have Berkeley CMAT this weekend, and I hear they are doing special Shaolin divisions akin...

Where in the vows are Tv & videogames banned? :rolleyes:

Shrimp Boy and the Senator has it's own thread now so we can pursue that discussion there. Meanwhile, I just posted the second-to-last batch of photos from the show on our fb album. Tomorrow I'll...

I guess we know now why Dr. Yee wasn't present for the 10th Anniversary celebration. It's such a shame really. He was the highest government official with whom I spent the most time. :(

That was a newsworthy stop. I have some exclusive comments from the Abbot on it which will appear in the report in our next issue (JUL+AUG 2014)

Magnificent Shaolin was fun - nice souvenirs. I'll have some pix up on our facebook album later this week.
