The Psychologist Abraham Maslow & Shaolin-Do
One of this century's best known Psychologists, Abraham Maslow, theorized that all humans desire self-growth and actualization. His theory, called the hierarchy of needs, suggested that a person first had to satisfy the baser needs before working on personal growth, identity and higher purpose within society. These needs are as follows (paraphrased).
1.) Hunger, Thirst, Procreation
2.) Safety & Security = Shaolin-Do
3.) Community, Belonging, Being Loved = Shaolin-Do
4.) Self-Esteem = Shaolin-Do
5.) Self-Actualizing (discovering your identity and purpose in the world) = Shaolin-Do
****Did somebody say CULT????
A real cult would have had:
1.) Hunger, Thirst, Procreation = Shaolin-Do

Behold, I see my father and mother.
I see all my dead relatives seated.
I see my master seated in Paradise and Paradise is beautiful and green; with him are men and boy servants.
He calls me. Take me to him.
