Shaolin Spirit - Your Path to Self-Realization


Shi Heng Yi opens with this book insights into previously unpublished knowledge of the Shaolin tradition - applicable practices for everyday life, underpinned with perspectives to recognize the familiar in a new way. The goal: to become stronger, to learn to meet life's challenges, to cultivate willpower, courage, endurance, discipline, and loyalty, and to perceive mind and body as one. Shi Heng Yi officiates as the senior master of Shaolin Temple Europe, a Buddhist monastery based in Germany. Representing the 35th generation of Shaolin, he represents and teaches an ancient tradition whose added value is already embraced and practised by millions worldwide.
