@@五湖四海-j9l Shang Dynasty started around 1600 bce. Yeh thats about 3500 years. The mythical Xia Dynasty is said to have started about 2000 bce. How about YOU count again.
@Jerry Ren If what you say is true then how come people know about the Warring States? How come people know about the Zhou Dynasty, Shang Dynasty, and Xia Dynasty? Why specifically only destroying what happened before Xia? What happened before Xia Dynasty is considered to be mythical. Where God-like beings did God-like things. And there was no written language before Shang. Only oracle scripts drawn on bones. So not sure whats there to burn if there was there was nothing in the first place...
@Jerry Ren Sure. But youre missing the point. The point is there was NO written history before Shang Dynasty. They were using Oracle bones to record things then. Meaning written history started after this. What historical records can be destroyed when there nothing to destroy in the first place?

Im not much of a religious or spiritual person, but eastern spiritualities and faiths like like that of Shaolin, Buddhist, or Shinto monks always struck me as less "Hall hail the mighty Yawe!" Like Christianity and more like "Respect nature and calm your mind." so that even someone like me, who doesn't have an ounce of faith in the divine in them, would still be able to fit in and learn. its like a mental form of a Martial art. and it feels like the wisdom masters of eastern faiths have to offer is more real than western faiths. id love to go to china or japan to learn from these places and take their wisdom to better my own life, to try and distance my mind from the anxiety and depression that has almost claimed my life over a dozen times in the past 4 years. i have nothing but respect for you as you are more wise than i am and possess knowledge and wisdom i can only dream of learning.
You nailed the core difference of western and eastern faiths right there. Unlike western faith where God is the truest and His teaching must be worshipped and adored, obeyed, eastern faith, the way I've experienced it, at least, focuses more on self-cultivation. You are encouraged to literally be a better person, be it through improving mindset, behavior, or, yes, through worship, or through more physical thing like social interaction, charity, or, as the Shaolin do it, through practice of meditation and martial art to build discipline and self-control, which are the basis of their actions outside of their religious life. Basically, strong belief in God means nothing if your self and life don't reflect it; no matter how much you honor God, it means nothing if you don't honor your self, your fellow human, and nature, of if you don't show it by living your life accordingly. In fact, a Buddhist monk once said that God doesn't need your faith, for God is mighty and your faith, to him, is like a single grain of sand in a desert; it really makes no difference whether it's there or not. Your life and how you live it, however, is of the utmost importance to you, to everyone around you, and it is equally true even if you don't believe in divinity. To view it this way, it's almost easy to categorize most Eastern faiths as philosophies with God/god figure(s) rather than religion, but maybe many people wiser than myself would disagree with this.
No one fights like that, but that's the whole point of taolu, it synthesises the key concepts of sword handling into a sequence, Chinese swords require ample wrist dexterity to use properly, hence that concept is taught through the taolu movement, the wide cuts and stabs are not to be done in sequence in a real fight, but to be broken down and used as the situation requires, it's usefulness scales with the amount of muscle memory the practitioner has ingrained through repetitive training
Dude said he's been practicing martial arts for the past 16 years! Yea right it looks like he's been reincarnated 5 times and was the one who invented martial arts.
"The Shaolin Dharma Sword is passed on from the Bodhidharma." Yeah, right. He wasn't even a martial artist. He only introduced non-martial physical exercises to the monks. Shaolin has now been dead for at least 3 decades, yet people continue to fall for the fake monks at the museum.
Come on, let's be real here. The monk shifu wouldn't throw his sword like that. Most likely came from the media. Portraying for extra effects. The foundational skills are spent indoors and the stretching is very painful, but liberating afterwards.
Most of the monks are vegan, but the warrior monks are highly encouraged to eat meat. There is no meat served in the temple, so the warrior monks must go eat meat in the nearby village.
Find that inner peace bro.....to master the sword is to master the weapon of destruction and chaos...find that inner peace least the spirit of the sword consumes your inner core....amazing art form.......Dharma sword....seems like a gathering storm....
Great culture and tradition under great man lord Buddha. But please guys we need to follow her path and teaching and avoid non veg specially bat .so that world became free from viruse .
lets use logic if chinese martial art whether hand to hand or weaponry doesnt work Ancient china wouldnt be so powerful, even mongol needed time to conquer it, even then it cannot hold it for long. if the martial art is bad and not as good as the other, how could they dominate and conquer land before the age of gun many MMA BETAS, says that kung fu doesnt work, but many other martial art mostly in sinosphere have chinese kungfu base. even karate

Expressing what ?
To die
But not to perish is
To be eternally present.
I wonder if they can buy and use a practice helmet in order to prevent hurting their opponents eyes. That would be nice

No one actually fights by slinging their sword around like that. One precision strike will do much better than ten flings.
You got a point, but again I bet the one who trains ten flings would do much better in said one precision strike than those who doesn't.
@@opiniawam9205 I'm not understanding. You mean that a person who flings their sword 10 times will be more precise?
No one fights like that, but that's the whole point of taolu, it synthesises the key concepts of sword handling into a sequence, Chinese swords require ample wrist dexterity to use properly, hence that concept is taught through the taolu movement, the wide cuts and stabs are not to be done in sequence in a real fight, but to be broken down and used as the situation requires, it's usefulness scales with the amount of muscle memory the practitioner has ingrained through repetitive training

I think warrior monks are allowed to eat meat because they defended the emperor one at some point in history
Most of the monks are vegan, but the warrior monks are highly encouraged to eat meat. There is no meat served in the temple, so the warrior monks must go eat meat in the nearby village.

Xu only wants more ppl to know him. A real Kongfu master just wants to live peacefully with his inner quiet.
