Xie bu is easy when they hang below your knees.

Bingo! My thoughts exactly...I hate when they drop in the toilet water...brrrr.

it makes you vulnerable to piranhas.

It would be very interesting to see Monk Soldiers fighting in mass formations...in the movies its usually just a one or a handful of them fighting together.

this is the only realistic depiction of battlefield fighting i have ever found

As for Wudang, we've put out a lot of research on the topic. There are three issues that focused on it specifically.

2002 September/October focused on internal power & longevity.

2003 September/October was dubbed a Tai Chi Special, and featured the first English interview with Zhong Yuan Long.

2009 March/April was our Wudang Special (wenshu posted a link to that cover story above).

There's more in my book, Shaolin Trips (which makes a fine holiday gift, btw), as I discuss my detour into Wudang.

I wouldn't do that to my family members but I'll buy one for Kwanza if you autograph it for me...write something mystical yet inappropriate inside the cover...deal?

And that my friends, is how Shaolin totally hijacks a Wudang thread.

So which sect likes to get drunk and nakid in the belief that hedonism is the true path to spiritual enlightenment?

[Robinhood]

One of my old students just got back from 2 month at Wu Dang mountain temple, no internal training, but a lot of external training and drinking. Not a luxury stay either.

That would be those crazy Jews!!! Don't make me show you...and that my friends is how the HEBREWS hijack a Shaolin thread.

Get in, get out, and nobody gets hurt!

Only if you're a Kabbalist.

Now Valhalla - that's the place to be. Wenches, Mead, Warriors all partying for all eternity. Well at least until Ragnarok. Then they battle the fierce frost giants in the epic end of all wars and ultimately go out in a blaze of glory.

and that's how the Vikings hijack a Hebrew thread.

Thanks for the articles Gene, I'm actually more interested in Wudang and Taoism now...lots of questions...something for me to seek. Next up Tai Chi lessons..

I think it's hilarious how much they make the character actually look like Kisu (Lokhopkuen), who it, well, actually is.
