4. -- ZEN BUDDHIST PODCAST of SHAOLIN ZEN --
Hosted by Buddha Zhen
www.zenbuddhistpodcast.com
Podcast 9
of the Zen Buddhist Podcast
hosted by Master Zhen
of the shaolinZEN.org Cybertemple.
Master Zhen Shen-Lang,
founder of the shaolinZEN.org CyberTemple
leads Buddhist Zen lessons to be aired and brodcast over the internet discussing Chinese Chan Buddhism from the Shaolin Zen CyberTemple Sangha.
"A Quickie"
Sneaking in during American Zen's recording sessions for their upcoming album, LEVEL 3 = I WANT YOU TO LOVE ME, Master Zhen gives a brief update on his school activities.
After watching a Public Television show about the "plastic mind," Master Zhen points out that this plastic mind concept was invented by Bodhidharma when he created Zen Buddhism. Criticizing the Shaolin Buddhist Monks for being lazy, Bodhidharma created a series of 18 exercises which grew into Kung Fu, to strengthen and revitalize the monks.
Zen Buddhism requires exercise, or it's not Zen Buddhism.
Master Zhen explains that they've finished his TAI CHI MAGIC 1 CD, and how his new BUDDHA KUNG FU school is taking off "gangbusters..."
Podcast Host: Master Zhen "Spirit Wolf of Truth"
Dharma Online: Shaolin Zen CyberTemple
BUDDHISM DHARMA FOR TODAY:
"Zen Buddhism was created to revitalize the mind and body to achieve enlightenment. (And a 'plastic mind.')"
Master Zhen laughs as he explains the many reasons, despite all his family hardships and not having a car the past 10 years, that he couldn't stop his teaching lifestyle without guilt and regrets.

Today's Dharma Webpage: "Buddha Kung Fu"
Topic: The PLASTIC MIND concept of recent TV show was originated by Bodhidharma 1,500 years ago when he taught that exercise was required for enlightenment. The 18 exercises, 18 Luohan Exericses, he created grew and grew into today's Shaolin Kung Fu as taught at Buddha Kung Fu, Master Zhen's NEW KUNG FU SCHOOL, launched January 2008.

5. - - Buddha Kung Fu DEMO TEAM - -
Tai Chi Kids are now Kung Fu Kids
The parents may have thought that "Tai Chi" would be less violent for their kids than, "Karate," but what the kids think matters most.
Parents do not run their children's lives anymore. Parents merely keep feeding the coal into the train's engine that keeps their kids moving from one playground to another field trip while both parents are working.
Since the parents don't even know what Tai Chi is, the kids really haven't a clue...but they do know what Kung Fu is...a little...
