    New Book about Shaolin.THE SHAOLIN TRADITION (by Shi Miao Dian)

    Greetings to all!
    I want to introduce a new Shaolin Book. THE SHAOLIN TRADITION (currently available in German language in Amazon. English will follow) written by master Shi Miao Dian.

    Iam Giataganas Christos. Student of Shi Miao Dian and the translator of his book from Greek into German. Iam a martial arts practitioner, teacher and researcher. It was an honor for me to take part in such a great book. It speaks about the history of Shaolin. About its events and live story of many prominent monks. It includes many photos from inside the temple and surroundings in good quality. Many of them first time published. It describes the life of Batuo, Damo, Huiko, the history of Chan Buddhism,Fuyu, the genealogy of the shaolin monks, the heroism of shaolin during Tang and Ming, shaolin during the other periods till today, photos and explanation of each Shaolin temple room, the life of many abbots and heroic monks and it closes with the Baduan jing qigong set. It includes this and many more. Everything about Shaolins history, of its monks and places. And its glory. A must for every Shaolin lover. Unfortunatelly its in german language at this time. It will follow in English.

    A short Bio of master Shi Miao Dian.
    He grew up as a wise in an orphanage. At the age of 8 years he trained Shaolin kung fu with master Liang Che. After his master died at the age of 14, he returned to Greece. After that he visited the Shaolin temple and became student of master Shi Heng Jun for 15 years until today.On August 25, 2005 he took the oath of office in the monastery and was given the Buddhist name Shi Miao Dien 释 妙 滇 (Shì miào diān) of the 36th generation Shaolin.

    In 2005, Priest Heng Jun approved the transfer of teacher Miao Dien as his apostle to Greece, with the aim of establishing the first Greek recognized training center for Shaolin Kung Fu. It was officially opened on January 18, 2006 in Ilion - Athens area.

    As the personal student son of the teacher Heng Jun, he continues to study in the Shaolin monastery and with the teacher Shi Yan Ao 释 延 奥 (Shì yán ào) and has followed him for more than 9 years.

    He is also a good friend with master Shi De Yang and other monks in Shaolin Temple today and visits it every year with his students.Name:  1.jpg
