Shaolin monks are trained for years, since early childhood, to be masters of the art of Shaolin Kung Fu.
|
Their training is not only extremely hard on the body, but also demands great mental strength. |
|
The Shaolin monks develop rigirous techniques of balance, endurance, strength, self defense and discipline. |
|
As they begin to master these skills, the limits of their bodies become nearly nonexistent. |
|
They can endure astonishing amounts of pain while showing nothing. |
|
What their bodies can do is symbolic of the inner balance they achieve through their training. |
|
They believe that limitations, like desire, grow within the mind. |
|
Once the mind is strengthened, the body can achieve nearly anything. |
|
While the idea may seem bizarre to those who have never experienced it... |
|
... and may invoke in us awe... |
|
...for these monks, it's a way of life. |
