Shi Yanfo of Fawang Temple is his favorite pupil, and Shi Yongxin, a well-known abbot, is his close disciple.
Old people in Hao Shizhai
Follow the teacher into Buddhism and become a master at a young age.
Our master Shi is a lifelong Buddhist monk who is committed to promoting Buddhism.
Under the influence of Buddhism, young Hao Shizhai sincerely converted to Buddhism, studied Buddhism, and had a bodhisattva heart when he was young.
And he practiced martial arts hard, often hiding in the house in the middle of the night, practicing Shaolin boxing with the help of weak candlelight.
After practicing for ten years, he achieved his martial arts of Shaolin Living Boxing Manual.
Martial arts is the foundation of a master, and virtue is the key to becoming a master.
When he was young, Hao Shizhai not only practiced martial arts, but also helped his parents raise seedlings and cultivate land. However, families from peasant families gave all their help to monks in villages and temples. Not only that, I taught myself medical skills, but also learned from medical masters and Shi Dechan. With superb medical skills, he took care of his sick father and gave free clinics to villagers who needed medical treatment.

In this way, Hao Shizhai is famous in the local area.
He is famous, and there are more people in the free clinic. In order to help more people more regularly and conveniently, Hao Shizhai sat in the pharmacy. So people from all over the country, who seek medical treatment and learn martial arts, come here.
Hao Shizhai has made outstanding achievements in martial arts, medical skill and virtue, and his personality charm is admirable. However, at a young age, he is already a master.
Bodhisattva's heart crosses the crowd, and martial arts spreads to high disciples.
There are many apprentices in Hao Shizhai, and there are many peaches and plums in the world.
Among many apprentices, many people worship Hao Shizhai because they got his help or treatment. A bodhisattva's heart not only saved people, but also built a bridge between people and Buddhism.
"Without Hao Shizhai, there would be no him and the Great Fawang Temple in Songshan", which is the abbot's evaluation of Master Hao Shizhai. Shi Yanfo is one of his outstanding disciples.
Wang Dafa Temple
Shi Yanfo was disabled on business when he was young, then converted to Buddhism and became attached to Hao Shizhai. Hao Shizhai took good care of Shi Yanfo and taught him the patience he had learned all his life.
In this way, Shi Yanfo, who was disabled, learned skills and virtues from his master.
Shi Yongxin, a well-known Shaolin abbot, is also Hao Shizhai's favorite student. A few years ago, Shi Yongxin lived a relatively poor life. He worshipped Shi as a teacher, but Shi was blind, so he entrusted Shi Yongxin to.
Hao Shizhai took him as his own son, took care of him wholeheartedly, and dedicated all his studies to Shi Yongxin.
Later, Shi Yongxin led the development of contemporary Shaolin Wushu and made outstanding achievements in all aspects, which attracted more and more social attention and doubts.
Some people question Shi Yongxin, saying that he can't do martial arts. What they don't know is that Shaolin Juexue martial arts are mostly taught at night, which is secluded and conducive to martial arts teaching and will not be stolen.
Kung fu was questioned in this way before it was exposed. Therefore, Hao Shizhai publicly promised himself that "disciple Shi Yongxin can't do martial arts".
Shi Yongxin once practiced martial arts.
Accept female apprentices without exception
1972, two sisters came to Shaolin Temple and wanted to convert to Buddhism and concentrate on Zen. But at that time, there was no regulation to accept women as disciples. After consulting with Master Shi, they decided to let them learn from the laity disciples.
They are called mentoring, but the two sisters have long regarded Hao Shizhai as their father, and Hao Shizhai loves them very much, so they are commensurate with their father and daughter.
Hao Shizhai devoted himself to his daily life care, his martial arts coach and his understanding of Buddhism.
A few years later, the two sisters' martial arts attainments and accomplishments have been greatly improved, and they also have a lot of insights into Buddhism. It is because of Hao Shizhai's unconventional and meticulous teaching that she became a sister trapped by life.
Perhaps this is the true meaning of a master: only when you have achieved yourself can you be called an able person, and only when you have achieved more people on the basis of your own achievements can you be called a master.
Hao Shizhai's adult beauty of obeying the rules and not sticking to the rules is another kind of personality charm.

Don't change color, fight back against malicious speculation
You know, the reputation of loving a feather is always accompanied by attacks, and there will be some malicious speculation in everyone's good reputation, and so will Hao Shizhai.
He married his wife Shi Yongfeng and lived his own life. But people said they didn't believe in Buddhism, broke lust, caution and attacked him maliciously.
As we all know, Hao Shizhai is a layman's child, so he can devote himself to Buddhism, and he doesn't have to stick to the Five Commandments. Hao Shizhai countered these attacks with his Buddhist attainments.
Others say that he broke the rules and accepted his daughter as a disciple, fearing that he would have other plans.
This angered peace-loving Hao Shizhai. He responded: The two sisters sincerely prayed for Buddha, because the nun's house collapsed, weeds covered her knees, and snakes and insects appeared, so they were allowed to live in Shaolin Temple temporarily. I took care of them as my own daughters, learned something and sent them to the early ancestral temple!
