Buddha Zhen slams the current Shaolin Temple and the monks he knows that graduated from there. He says that of the three that he knows who started actual schools in Los Angeles, none of them teach Zen Buddhism.

Buddha Zhen says the American view of Shaolin Kung Fu is like children who love McDonalds for dinner. “They just don’t know better. Americans don’t know what Shaolin Kung Fu is. They see all these Shaolin fighters beating people up and fighting in tournaments… but that is not what Zen Buddhism is. And Shaolin Kung Fu is part of Zen Buddhism.”

He also says people think Bruce Lee is a Kung Fu master, but Bruce Lee never graduated the intermediate level of any Kung Fu or Wing Chun school. “He never even learned sword or spear. That’s why he used nunchucks, a Japanese farming tool. He never learned Kung Fu.”

Buddha Zhen explains that Zen is “… a universal perspective.” He uses the example of looking at a tree. If four people look at a tree from for different sides, they will each see a very different tree. Buddha Zhen explains that Zen awareness is seeing the tree from the front, the back and both sides, even standing under it and looking up at it. “Good luck seeing it from above.”

Buddha Zhen also explains how Japanese Zen Buddhism is not Zen Buddhism. “Instead of doing Kung Fu, they do nothing.”

For enlightenment Buddha Zhen recommends that people create a business plan for every goal and have a role model for every goal. He elaborates on how role models can help people attain success.

“Learn to understand what Zen REALLY is.”

Buddha Zhen talks about using the Tai Chi Beginner book to improve people’s lives since 1992.

“Be Shaolin. Zen is Shaolin. Shaolin is Zen.”

Then he laughs and says, “But you don’t know what Zen is. And you don’t know what Shaolin is…”
(You’re either both or neither).

Buddha Zhen has been teaching Shaolin Zen Buddhism since 1984.
Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Kung Fu & Taoist Tai Chi Chuan was founded 1992.

Buddha Zhen began studying Shaolin Kung Fu in 1980. He says, "But I didn't consider myself a "master" until 1994, 14 years later."

"You can get a black belt in any Karate system in one or two years, but it takes at least 12 years to graduate Shaolin Kung Fu. This is the most difficult martial art in the world."
