Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of The Shaolin Grandmasters' Text: History, Philosophy, and Gung Fu of Shaolin Ch'an

Book Review: Forget everything you think you know!
Summary: 5 Stars

The more I read of this book the more astonished I became. The information contained in the text completely re-wrote my perception of what 'Shaolin' is. Many supposed reputable sources have informed the public about how Shaolin is this or that but in truth they seem to have missed the very essence of what it is to be Shaolin. This book truly informs the reader what Shaolin is.

This book encompasses a number of different elements that all fall under the branches of Shaolin. It is broken into three parts: The History and Spiritual Philosophy of Shaolin, The martial arts of Shaolin and Integrating the Practices of Shaolin. Each part is made up of a number of chapters each as mesmerising as the last.

The nature of the writing makes it accessible to all, although some chapters may need to be re-read in order to be fully appreciated. This book will appeal to all martial artistes not just those interested in the Shaolin arts.

In conclusion:

IF YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT SHAOLIN IS, READ THIS BOOK, YOU'LL BE VERY SURPRISED.

AFTER READING THIS BOOK YOU WILL HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR THE ORDER OF SHAOLIN CH'AN.
