omnifinite Posted January 23, 2003 Share Posted January 23, 2003 I think you should try to post your newsletter here or have a friend do it for you. I think it would be extremely relevant to a lot of people here and a great service to us. If it isn't too much trouble please consider it . 1st Dan HapkidoColored belts in Kempo and Jujitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaiFightsMS Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 Yes it would be very interesting to have your adventures posted here. Please think about KF during the time you have internet access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeygirl Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 Wow, talk about an experience! I don't know how hard it is to get into the Shaolin temple, but I'd say it's quite a privelige, and a fairly unique adventure. Please, keep us informed while you're there! 1st dan & Asst.

Red J Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 Henry, how about some info. How did you arrange this? What do you have to do to prepare for this experience? Will you live as a monk? Please keep us posted. Good luck! I had to lose my mind to come to my senses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnifinite Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 I volunteered to get emails from Henry South about his trip and take care of posting them here for him and he agreed. So I'll do my best to make sure we stay in the loop for all our benefit. 1st Dan HapkidoColored belts in Kempo and Jujitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Arahat Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 I assume Henry that you will be learning at one of the satalite schools to learn kung-fu. Not join the ranks of the monks.

Henry South Posted January 26, 2003 Author Share Posted January 26, 2003 yes i am joining an off shoot of the temple itself. however i have put serious thought about just packing up and leaving. their life is so much simpler than our complicated strait laced get in line bull****. pardon my french. but i think they have the right idea. i will however be attending dayly meditation and prayer cerimonys. hope that has answered your question Henry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabid hamster Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 That sounds awesome. Is it possible you could get on KF every two weeks and tell us how it's going? It is only with the heart that one can see clearly, for the most essential things are invisible to the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
