bury it for a year or two and put mold on it so it looks old, wrinkle the pages a little then you can sell an ancient shaolin manual for big money. i hope you bought it for 300 RMB, if you paid 300 dollars for that you got ripped off badly.

it's technically not free, you have to pay a membership fee to beijing online library, then you can read all of its books online, including shaolin encyclopedia.
here is a sample, i googled it

Really? I wish I could read Chinese, I'd sift through and copy everything related to the Tai Tzu Chang Chuan system. Then I wouldn't need to buy the whole set, just what I am interested in.
Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

This post seems about five years too late... Back in the day I was a member of Cyberkwoon. One thing that Fabien used to have available for download was these PDF's of shaolin forms. I recently came across a collection for download on torrent, so I grabbed it for old time's sake.
My question is, has anyone tried to work out these forms? I am also curious as to what exactly they are, and where they came from.

Wow... I remember joining that sight probably over ten years ago. Maybe longer because I think it was wen I first got into martial arts as a kid. The Shaolin form drawings are familiar to me. I think I've seen at least comparable drawings in a book somewhere. I'd be interested to learn their origin as well.

The line drawing forms in the PDF files available in cyberkwoon.com are extracts from the 4-volume set of "Encyclopedia of Shaolin Martial Arts" by monk Shi De Qian. Those barehanded forms are from the 2nd volume.

Very cool to know. I've always thought thy were interesting to look at, though I never tried to work through them. I imagine they would be good reminders for people who already knew the forms.

Can somebody who have those books, scan a few pages from it and show me once an example?
Thx

thanks, a very good website. but the 4th link is a mislabeling, it is not the 4th vol, but it is only an extraction of the last sections of the 3rd vol, which are on the rare and hidden Shaolin weapons.
