shaolin kungfu-金沙1005

in terms of the content and concept, the word “wushu” cannot substitute“kungfu”. it should be mentioned that wushu is a part of kungfu which contains two levels of wushu and wudao(chinese: 武道). in terms of practice, wushu trains people and wudao shapes your martial arts skill. wushu builds people’s body and strengthens people’s will, making people brave, strong and full of energy. but it gets no further than that. wudao is able to bring wushu up to the state of dao (chinese: 道) that means the great truth of the heaven, earth and man. meanwhile shaolin kungfu contains the truth of chan of the universe, life and wisdom. (from words of chan by shi yongxin)
