You are going to learn that your body is important just as your mind is important.

And based on this very basic idea, now it starts.

Now somebody maybe asks, OK, now, yes, I want to develop the mind, how should I do it?

And then, in the Shaolin Temple traditionally we are teaching Buddhist teachings, Confucianist teachings and Taoist teachings.

So three, let's say, teachings aiming in the development of the mind.

So you are reading series, you are reading essays, you are reading different texts,

maybe some of them describing the life of one of these persons, Buddha or maybe Lao Tzu or maybe Confucius.

By putting yourself into the skin of those personalities, you maybe, maybe or maybe not,

get a glimpse of, ah, okay, so this is how they were living.

This is the virtues that they inhabited in themselves, why they are behaving in this, this and that way.

These were some type of virtues that they were abiding to, that they kept as a guideline in their daily life.

That is like where the theory part in a way tries to already offer you something.

Offer you something because at the end of the day it's still up to you to decide

whether you take what you have observed there as something that you think is useful for you, or if you just say, I cannot relate to it,

I don't know what it means, so it's not relevant for me.

This is like in terms of theoretical aspects.

And then at the same time we have the physical practice, which means it is the Kung Fu training, It is the Tai Chi training and it is the Qi Gong training.

And practical means because by doing some type of practice, you get answers.

Sometimes it's answers you didn't ask,

but nevertheless the important part is that through the practice there is some type of information and some type of knowledge

being transmitted to you along the way of practice

that will never ever come in this lifetime if you would only read books.

The knowledge from the practical,

the knowledge from the theoretical, this afterwards you take.

What it means is you You have a field of knowledge,

you have an area that now at any time wherever you are going in this lifetime you are able to access it.

And when are these times to access it?

It is times when you are being placed in a situation where you need to take a decision, for example.

No matter from which country you are coming from, no matter from which culture somebody is coming from.

This whole life is based on the decisions you are taking.

Some people take that type of decision which leads to a consequence,

other people maybe take better decisions which leads to another consequence.

Ultimately it's about the decisions.

But how come sometimes are confronted with the same situation but they take completely different approaches,

they take completely different decisions.

It is because one of them has more or the other one has less access to knowledge,

to experience than the other one.

So what all All of this theoretical learning,

practical learning, what all of this is supposed to offer to you is just a whole bandwidth of solutions,

which we think is very good to have walking through this lifetime,

not only as a martial artist, it doesn't matter from where you come from.

The more possibilities you can access, the better for you.

Today's video is sponsored by MulliganBrothers.com where you can now get the all-new Memento Mori poster

that is behind me with 10% off using code STOIC at checkout and please join the waiting list for the new journal.

It is dropping very soon.

But before that, here are my personal favorite rules from Master She Hung Yi from the Shaolin Temple Europe.

Let's dive into the video.

Sometimes in order for you to develop something,

some type of experience, some type of situations are necessary.

So that means this idea of sometimes it needs something really, really emotional. that triggers you inside.

Then a change comes.

Sometimes it's exactly what makes you cry, exactly what makes you confront yourself and what is super uncomfortable.

Exactly these moments sometimes are the ones you should be thankful for

because they carry the potential to unlock something very fundamental inside of you.

Let's say like this.

It is impossible for a human being to walk through this lifetime

without making things that the first time they do it directly go right.

What I mean is everybody will do something which will go wrong, no matter in which type of field.

But after it went wrong the first time, the question is how are you going to continue?

If you are starting to be wise,

intelligent, you are observing the situation.

Why did you make it wrong?

What was the mistake?

What went wrong in it?

If you are confronted the second time with the same situation and you make it wrong again, so apparently you didn't learn something.

And in the way how Confucius expresses this is, making something wrong the first time is not a mistake.

It is your chance to correct it.

But making the same situation over and over wrong again and wrong again,

because you are of the unwillingness to learn something from it. That is the mistake.

That something goes wrong the first time, this is not the mistake.

If you don't learn from it, if you don't observe the situation,

take the knowledge out in order to make a better outcome for the future,

If this is not your trial, if this is not what you're aiming for, then it's a mistake.

So in a way, it is the same that nowadays we are already expressing with the term of

that's why you need challenges.

You will fail definitely a few times.

The question is what will you take out of these failures?

And in the way of people, for example, yes, it can happen that you made in the past,

took some decisions, took some actions that have shaped your present life right now

and also will have an impact on the future.

But we cannot undo the past.

Therefore the question is, what will you take out of this lesson that you have?

You did one thing wrong in the past.

Now it's following me, following you, your whole life long.

My first conclusion is, I need to better take care about what I am involving in.

Message number one.

Now some things you cannot undo, yet there is still the possibility to rebalance things.

And there are different ways how you can approach it.

For example, by doing a lot of charity work.

You did wrong to many people in the past.

Now, do something good for many people where you are excluded.

Let's say, charity work.

Invest some of your time to take care of people that they can benefit from your work energy, let's say.

These are very practical ways that in our tradition we also sometimes make use of.

Charity work, donating.

This is where all of this comes from. Because it takes something.

It takes something from you in order to live this way of life.

Everybody talks about letting go of the self, letting go of the illusion of the ego.

How?

100

For example like this.

101

Do something that is not for the benefit of yourself.

102

Invest your lifetime, a few hours, a few days, every week,

103

every month and do something where other people are benefiting from your work.

104

This is what I think is a practical way how that maybe guilt that some people still feel nowadays can be reduced.

105

Before you were taking now it's time to give.

106

When things are rebalanced then you can continue on another path again.

107

But before anyone continues, you need to rebalance.

108

You want to know what is spiritual.

109

You don't approach spirituality.

110

You want to know what is spiritual, figure out what is the physical.

111

then you will get to there.

112

You want to know what is left?

113

Don't approach left.

114

Figure out what is right.

115

And in such a way,

116

this is also like something counterintuitive.

117

But that is one of the methods.

118

This is why you want freedom, we want freedom, yes.

119

But how do we live?

120

Structured rules, walls, all of this.

121

That doesn't look like this would be free.

122

Yes, you want freedom?

123

Face the structure, face the hard discipline.

124

Because if inside this hard structured form, you are able to have the freedom.

125

You feel free inside this hard form.

126

That is the freedom.

127

But to always directly approach what you want is the wrong way.

128

Why?

129

Because it is one-sided.

130

Because it is only one-sided.

131

You want success, you directly try to to approach success,

132

but it's impossible to have this success if you do not know what that failure is before.

133

So now the question is, how do you make this both?

134

How can you have this wide view of incorporating everything that is involved in it?

135

You need to find a way how to always embrace everything that is involved into it.

136

And that's why we say relaxation and tension, they both belong together.

137

That's why there's no way.

138

I need to know both of them.

139

This is not about if you want or not.

140

You need both of them.

141

Of course we want to have spiritual development.

142

But how do we get there?

143

by figuring out what is at the moment really accessible to me, my body.

144

Because there this is nothing about imagining, this is nothing about fantasizing.

145

Your body is something that is available to you 24 hours every day.

146

So therefore, because it is so close to me, I can learn from it.

147

So we go from the physical to the spiritual.

148

And yes, this is where I would say the...

149

It's one part of what is existing in this type of teachings.

150

What I know is

151

when people receive some type of knowledge,

152

that knowledge can be very, very powerful.

153

There is knowledge out there that just gives you the ability suddenly to see for yourself what you are capable of.

154

Now the question for me is, if I would like to run any type of system,

155

if I would like to establish some type of structure,

156

I don't want that everybody inside the structure does what he thinks he wants to do.

157

It just would not work.

158

So now the problem is, in the moment where you are receiving some type of knowledge and you for yourself can understand your potential,

159

I think it's not wanted.

160

So based on that, it was unwanted after some time that the real knowledge,

161

that the real methods are being shared to too many people, not just in China, but worldwide.

162

I think it's still nowadays like this.

163

There is some type of knowledge people don't want that it's getting out there.

164

Why?

165

Because after you have this type of knowledge, after you practice and develop yourself, you cannot be controlled anymore.

166

You cannot be influenced so easily anymore.

167

Why?

168

Because you see for yourself what you can do and what you can't do.

169

You don't need to listen for anybody to tell you what you are able of and what you are not capable of.

170

This is what it means to bring out the potential of someone. Which potential?

171

The potential to express yourself.

172

If you don't realize that potential inside of yourself, what you can and what you can't, other people will tell you.

173

Other people will put you in that category where they think you would be useful for.

174

But this is not what I think is the intention and the purpose of you living this life.

175

I think for all of us living this life means you

176

have the right in a way to self-express yourself as long as you don't harm other people along this way.

177

So this complete knowledge and at the same time the methods that were strengthening,

178

hardening and making your body become a weapon, this combination is deadly for any system.

179

You are a good fighter and you are intelligent and wise.

180

You know what you are mentally and physically capable of

181

and your body is at the same time strong is the worst combination.

182

Nobody can tell you something.

183

So and this is why it's a big jump right now.

184

But there is the time where the practice of the martial arts was forbidden.

185

And now based on that I don't want to go too deep into it because sometimes these These are legends,

186

sometimes they are fairy tales, I don't know.

187

But some movements of the traditional martial arts styles, for example, sometimes you see that it looks like a farmer's job.

188

Because it is said that this type of fighting techniques were hidden inside the farmer's job

189

because they couldn't publicly practice their Kung Fu.

190

They needed to hide their training in, let's say, daily activities where nobody could witness this.

191

I cannot tell you if it's a legend or not.

192

It's out of question that there are practices still existing nowadays that definitely have some similarities.

193

And yes, but the main idea is that there was a time where all of this practical approach was forbidden.

194

And yes, and that was at the same time also the point where I think it happened

195

that the majority of knowledge that once was hidden inside those walls started to spread into the world.

196

And this is why you don't find it anymore where you think it is.

197

It may be slowly, it's coming back again.

198

But it's still out there right now.

199

And like I initially also said, what is another mission of this monastery?

200

It's the same like it is 1,500 years ago.

201

2. Collecting knowledge, this time it just means we have to recollect it because it's lost. And number 2.

202

Educating the youth.

203

Educating the youth now it's our novices,

204

the master students and the disciples and everybody who in a way is now in contact with this temple. And what goal?

205

Give the power back.

206

Give the power back that people have.

207

Is that humans have the same issues in every country, regardless of nation and culture.

208

There are some things that are just connected to being human.

209

At the same time I realize that some nations,

210

some cultures are very much embedded also in the way of how they were brought up,

211

meaning with a very specific type of looking at the world.

212

Another part of this world has other ways of looking at the same problem.

213

Everybody is looking for the solution of their issues.

214

And sometimes there is not only one answer.

215

Sometimes the answer from them is correct and the answer from them is correct.

216

because sometimes the answer and the solution is based on the person itself.

217

I make it maybe a little bit more clear.

218

In Buddhism exists for example this idea of reincarnation.

219

In other traditions you don't have reincarnation.

220

Either you have paradise or you have hell.

221

So now somebody might be asking, so who is talking the truth now?

222

The Christians or the Buddhists?

223

So what of them?

224

Either reincarnation or hell and heaven?

225

What if both of it would be possible?

226

What if the person who his whole life long believed and grew up in this belief system?

227

There will be heaven and hell.

228

Okay, you go to heaven and hell.

229

And if somebody died with the last thought of reincarnation, is possible.

230

Why he can't get to that state of being reincarnated?

231

Who says there can only be one of those two things?

232

Because potential for me means if a human can sink it, it's there.

233

And if somebody creates something in the mind between heaven and hell, it's there.

234

If somebody creates in his mind reincarnation, it's already existing in the mind as well.

235

And so from this example I can just see that what nowadays is happening is that a lot of eastern insights,

236

eastern methods for example, on the one side, being more and more exposed in the western world.

237

And then it seems like the Western world now is trying to counter with some insights

238

that the Western science and the Western culture maybe has developed.

239

And I just think both of them are right.

240

It would be good to see the connection between...

241

The connection, how both of these insights can be brought together.

242

Because it just gives you a bigger view.

243

And eventually we're talking about the same stuff.

244

And not against each other.

245

So, and in that sense, very, very glad and very thankful if there are people that are maybe famous out there,

246

if they also sometimes share the methods, even so they are coming maybe from another area.

247

It only tells me, okay, maybe he got it.

248

Maybe he understood that it's the same, it's just, I just speak another language.

249

With the way of how I speak, I can reach a certain group of people.

250

With the way of how another person explains it, for example Joe Rogan, the way how he talks, he reaches another group of people.

251

But what is it that is reaching them?

252

A message.

253

And this is the important part.

254

I don't care how the message is reaching them.

255

I want the message to get out.

256

In the recent times, for example, when I looked at different interviews, there is one word which like starts to, maybe it seems like it,

257

but it pops up more often, which is the warrior.

258

It pops up a little bit quite often and of course you can be a mental warrior meaning you're always strict,

259

you're always strong in the mind, you keep going.

260

Yes of course this is something that you need but at the same time taking it a little bit more literal, a little bit more martial,

261

it also means a warrior that you at the same time have the physical abilities to interfere.

262

A warrior is sent.

263

A warrior has or feels the obligation if something is out of balance out there, I'm gonna fix it.

264

Or you try.

265

And if you try and you fail, you try harder next time.

266

But you don't give up on that statement that you're giving to yourself.

267

So in that sense, and especially that the Shaolin warriors are embedded in the field of martial arts,

268

the full picture is you need to have a capable body.

269

But if I would express it like this too often, maybe there will be a group of people that say,

270

yeah, but I can't anymore because of this, this and this issue.

271

So how can I still participate in the Shaolin teaching?

272

You can, of course.

273

That's why I'm telling this the whole time that it's not about this martial aspect.

274

But if you want to have a glimpse into how in the past Shaolin warriors were living,

275

why they were called like this, it's possible to find it out.

276

And that means you are using methods to bring something out of the body that the average person does not have.

277

It's not only that you are physically able.

278

It is something very strange.

279

It is something that inside of you, you access something different in you.

280

There is a famous saying which is called Guishou Foshin.

281

Demon's hand, Buddha's heart.

282

It's an old Shaolin saying.

283

Develop the demon hand while at the same time maintain the Buddha's heart.

284

Demon and Buddha, you might say they are both very two different sides.

285

Yeah, you need both.

286

You need both.

287

Demon hand, demon heart, no good.

288

Then you are going to become a threat for this world.

289

demon hand, Buddha heart, to be able to access something and then decide upon your heart whether to use it or not.

290

I think this is what we're looking for.

291

And the physical abilities is important of course but there's more to it.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
