Chinese martial arts are national cultural treasures, which contain many important Chinese cultural knowledge and a good Chinese national spirit. For individuals, it can not only strengthen the body, but also temper the strong will of individuals, and play a positive role in promoting the healthy development of people's body and spirit. There are many types of Chinese martial arts, the most well-known of which is Shaolin Temple Kung Fu. With the passage of time, the Shaolin Temple has a history of 1,500 years, and although it has experienced countless tribulations, it has eventually been handed down with the joint efforts of generations of monks and abbots. Today, the abbot of the Shaolin Temple is the well-known Shi Yongxin.
Shi Yongxin's ancestors all made a living from farming, and their family was very ordinary. At that time, there were no advanced television sets and movies for them to watch and entertain, so listening to reviews became a major entertainment for people. Therefore, from an early age, Shi Yongxin often followed the adults to listen to the commentaries. Although there are many contents of the commentary, he is most interested in the commentary on the Shaolin warrior monks.
Over time, Shi Yongxin developed a strong interest in Shaolin Kung Fu, and Shi Yongxin's parents were both Buddhist believers, and under their subtle influence, Shi Yongxin also had some understanding of Buddhist culture, so Shi Yongxin always dreamed of one day becoming a monk with strong martial arts as stated in the commentary. Later, as time went on, he grew up and became more and more fond of Shaolin Kung Fu, and finally, at the age of 16, he decided to become a monk. This puzzled his parents. If you really become a monk, you must abide by the rules of the monastery and cannot marry and have children for the rest of your life. From his parents' point of view, passing on the lineage was a big deal, and now that Shi Yongxin was actually going to become a monk, how could he do it?
After his parents expressed their objections, Shi Yongxin was a little sad, he did not want to disappoint his parents, but he really could not let go of the idea of learning Kung Fu in Shaolin, and finally he chose to run away from home and go to the Shaolin Temple alone to learn art. If you want to become a monk, you also have to pay attention to a lot of chances, and Shi Yongxin is one of the luckiest ones, he not only became a disciple of the Shaolin Temple, but also taught Shi Xingzheng abbot. At first, Shi Yongxin had to adapt to the life of the temple on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to learn new knowledge, so his day was busy, and his parents learned of his whereabouts and kept advising him to go home, which made him feel tired. Fortunately, his parents saw his persistence and determination, knew that he was determined to become a monk, and finally could only dispel the idea of taking him home.
At that time, although Shi Yongxin worshiped abbot Shi Xingzheng as his teacher, because the abbot at that time was blind in both eyes, he could only entrust the matter of teaching the exercises to Hao Shizhai, another monk who was highly respected at the Shaolin Temple at that time. Hao Shizhai was knowledgeable and strong in martial arts, and was also known as the "Shaolin Living Fist Spectrum". Shi Yongxin was naturally very happy to receive his guidance and teachings. However, learning martial arts is not a simple thing, not only to get up early and greedy, but also to bear hardships and stand hard work. But Shi Yongxin persevered, and performed well, and was praised by Hao Shizhai, after which Hao Shizhai saw that he was so studious, he taught Shi Yongxin all he had learned all his life.
After that, Shi Yongxin did not live up to Hao Shizhai's hopes, he practiced diligently, and finally not only made his own martial arts more refined, he also became a master of others, teaching many excellent martial arts talents, including not only real monks, but also lay disciples who practiced on behalf of others, such as Wang Baoqiang, Shi Xiaolong, and so on. However, as Shi Yongxin's position at the temple changed, he had to not only teach his disciples martial arts, but also take care of the affairs of the temple.
In order to make Shaolin martial arts flourish and be known to more people, Shi Yongxin also began to choose to use advanced and effective means of communication to spread the martial arts culture of the Shaolin Temple, for example, he frequently appeared in front of the media to promote Shaolin martial arts. Through his continuous efforts, the Shaolin Temple became more and more well-known, and his position became larger and larger, and finally in 1999, he became the abbot of all the affairs of the Shaolin Temple. Under his management, the development of the Shaolin Temple became better and better, and he also became the most powerful abbot of the Shaolin Temple.
But soon after, Shi Yongxin became the center of public opinion, because as a monk, he was not only worth tens of millions, but also lived in a mansion and drove a luxury car. Haven't the monks always claimed not to care about these things outside the body? So what happened to Shi Yongxin's behavior? Also, he once said that he had mastered the 72 skills of Shaolin, but he had never seen him show it in front of the world, so was what he said true or false?
In the face of many suspicions and doubts, Shi Yongxin did not respond, so we cannot know the truth. But judging from the many martial arts talents he taught, he did know kung fu, but whether he mastered 72 stunts was a big mystery.
But as long as he keeps his original intention, is not tempted by various things in the outside world, and insists on doing things that benefit others and himself, then we don't have to investigate his personal affairs deeply.
