"Zen Body"
Starting at his new Kung Fu school, www.BuddhaKungFu.com, Buddha Zhen bounces back to the shaolinZEN.org CyberTemple from a link on the Buddha Kung Fu homepage, "Zen Body."
Zen Buddhism was created by Bodhidharma from India. When Bodhidharma retired at the Shaolin Temple, he passed on his Indian Kung Fu, Kalaripayattu, to his Disciple, Hui Ke. This Kung Fu Buddhism was known as "Chan Buddhism" in China. When the Japanese monks came to the Shaolin Temple, they renamed it "Zen Buddhism" after returning to Japan. Although some Japanese temples tried to maintain the martial arts with their Buddhism, eventually this was stripped away in laziness, just as the Chinese practice Chan Buddhism without exercising also.
The origins of each religion appear to be the best version of each religion -- before humans add their greed and laziness to whatever they create.
"Can you handle the truth?" taunts Master Zhen. Join us next week and see if you are a Zen Buddhist.
BUDDHISM DHARMA FOR TODAY:
"Zen Body is Zen Mind is Zen..."
Buddha Zhen explains how all religions require you to care for your body--for various reasons. Then Buddha Zhen implores all listeners to appreciate their bodies more as these bodies are their Zen vehicles.
