Shaolin Kung Fu, also known as Shaolin Martial Arts, is one of the famous martial arts schools in my country. It has a long history and far-reaching influence and is an important part of traditional Chinese martial arts. The most prominent feature of Shaolin Kung Fu is the "integration of Zen and martial arts", that is, using Zen to enter martial arts, practicing martial arts and cultivating Zen, so it is also known as "Martial Arts Zen". Below is what I have compiled just for you: An introduction to Shaolin Temple Kung Fu.
Introduction to Shaolin Temple Kung Fu
The essence of Shaolin Kung Fu is the integration of Zen and martial arts; Shaolin Temple is the ancestral home of Zen Buddhism, and the purpose of Zen Buddhism is to understand one's mind, see one's nature, and achieve enlightenment and become a Buddha. In the eyes of Buddhism, practicing Zen is the right way. Pan Guojing, the successor of authentic Shaolin Kung Fu, said: Boxing and bravery are the last skills. The monks just use the practice of martial arts to achieve the purpose of concentrating their minds and eliminating worries. At the same time, you can also achieve the effects of strengthening your body and prolonging your life!
Shaolin Kung Fu is a comprehensive martial arts system, in which the word "Zen" is an important basis for improving Kung Fu, because Zen "is not only external but also external." Thinking without moving the mind? Huineng, the Sixth Patriarch of Shaolin, said in the "Tan Sutra": Zen is the Sanskrit transliteration of "Jhana", and its free translation is "abandoning evil", "the jungle of merit", "thinking cultivation", "quiet meditation" . Due to thousands of years of accumulation and hard work, the martial arts and Zen in Shaolin Kung Fu have been organically combined, and the martial arts in Shaolin Kung Fu have been integrated into Zen meditation. This is the difference between Shaolin Kung Fu and other martial arts schools. The advantage of Zen and martial arts is that Shaolin Kung Fu has formed a very specific Zen program that everyone can practice. The real value of promoting martial arts Zen is to provide people with an effective meditation program.

Its style mainly embodies a "hard" character, with both offense and defense, focusing on attack. The boxing style does not emphasize the beauty of the appearance, but only the practicality of the martial arts. The footwork is flexible and agile, and can be said to be a line for punching. In terms of body posture and punching, it is required that the technique is curved but not crooked, straight but not straight, and it is required to move in and out freely.
