Introduction
The Shaolin are a truly cryptic individuals. From their unassuming beginnings in the Henan provision of China, their way of life has kept on stretching the boundaries of the human brain, body, and spirit.After a horrendous fire in 1929, a lot of their hardly written history was lost. Yet, a priest named Jin Jing Zhong incorporated many years of living information. With gifts from the head of Shaolin, the Training Methods of the 72 Arts of Shaolin was made. You may address the number of these were genuine, however they’re all intriguing.
Pulling Out Nails
Bo Ding Gong
Drive a nail into a board of wood, then, at that point eliminate it with three fingers. An understudy will rehearse this for quite a long time. In the event that one can eliminate the nail effectively with the thumb, pointer, and center finger, then, at that point one can advance to eliminating the nail with the thumb, ring, and pinky finger. Incomprehensible strength from even the most vulnerable limbs is a genuine maxim of Shaolin preparing. Each finger on two hands should be prepared to create huge eruptions of solidarity just as coordinating strong endurance.Over time, the nails are driven further into the wood. At the point when this turns out to be simple, the wood is hosed before the nails are embedded, and they are permitted to rust. A high level understudy in this method would prepare by eliminating rusted nails driven in as far as possible with two fingers, or maybe one. The fingers of the understudy should have the solidarity to push down the actual wood to effectively eliminate the nail. Upon dominance, the fingers will be sufficiently reinforced to take on more troublesome strategies, for example, the Diamond Finger.
Skill Of Light Body
Jin Shen Shu
However the “Expertise of Light Body” has become a well known mythos in hand to hand fighting movies, it is an undeniable Shaolin practice. Shaolin confirmations make reference to men of 60 “jins,” or 50 kilograms (16 lb) laying on branches like butterflies or honey bees—in any event, skimming like sparrows. This is a genuinely intriguing act of Shaolin, complete with an extremely interesting and apparently incomprehensible preparing routine.The preparing starts with a monstrous dirt bowl loaded up with water and an understudy strolling along the edge conveying a weighted knapsack, maybe with lead splashed with pigs blood. Understudies will stroll along the edge of this bowl each day for quite a long time. On the 21st day of every month, a “calabash-sized” scoop of water is taken out. Also, more iron (or wicked lead) is added to the rucksack. While the water at first keeps the bowl from tipping and influencing, it turns out to be progressively troublesome and abnormal for the understudy to explore the outline without falling in, out, or over.The student should proceed with this until the rucksack gauges an aggregate of 5 JINS (2.5kg), and the bowl is altogether vacant. At the point when the understudy can dominate this, the interaction is rehashed, the huge dirt bowl is supplanted with an enormous wicker bin loaded up with iron chips. More weight is added to the rucksack, and one should rehash the preparation until the bin is altogether empty.These are only the initial two stages. Progressed preparing techniques incorporate strolling across grass without folding it. Further preparing is select information gone orally through ages. In 2014, a priest figured out how to run on a lake on sinking compressed wood boards for more than 385 feet (118m)
Method That Reveals The Truth

At its center, this method is a progression of troublesome shifty and strategic tumbles. Falling face downward on a stone floor without recoiling, somersaults that distort and twist the spine, and even moves that “ricochet” the understudy off the ground are steps headed for dominance. At the point when one has dominated these “eighteen somersaults” one may advance on to an extra 64 more muddled (and risky) tumbling techniques.Great aces who have culminated this strategy can do an uncountable number of somersaults in an uncountable number of ways. Not exclusively does is this said to fortify Qi, however skin, bones and muscles develop further also.
Iron Head
Tie Tou Gong
There is an explanation head-butting is prohibited in sports like blended hand to hand fighting—the danger of horrendous mind wounds. The notable Shaolin “Iron Head,” anyway suggests these kind of blows as well as recommends them as a normal preparing routine. Understudies fortify the front facing bones, transient bones, and top of the skull to a close to superhuman inflexibility, equaling that of stone.The objective is genuinely essential: Knock objects into your head, and your head into objects gradually and step by step over years to reinforce the bones in the skull. With many miniature cracks, joined with mending and redundancy, the bones reshape to the pressing factor, and can turn out to be amazingly tough. Nonetheless, this can require many long periods of every day practice to accomplish, each time with the danger of lasting injury.The first essential preparing routine suggested in the approach of the Shaolin includes enveloping one’s head by silk and tenderly slamming the head into a stone divider. Following one year, the understudy will eliminate a couple of layers of silk and proceed with the cycle for at least 60 days; from that point forward, the silk is taken out totally. From here, understudies will rehearse with more outrageous strategies, for example, thumping their skulls together for quite a long time, breaking frozen squares on their heads, and surprisingly dozing in headstand positions. Explicit activities and methods to fortify the sanctuaries, mouth, and eyes follow this strategy as well.In an uncommon model, a Shaolin priest has held an electric drill to his sanctuary for 6 seconds and arose solid.
One Finger Of Chan Meditation
Yi Zhi Chan Gong
Following 40 years of extreme Shaolin preparing and contemplation, Xi Hei Zi would meander the nation, visiting each cloister in the northern and southern regions, and no man had the option to conquer him. The legend claims it is because of this technique.At the earliest reference point when Xi Hei Zi began preparing, he draped a load from a tree limb on a way that he voyaged every day. Each time he elapsed the weight, he would push his finger into it—from the greatest conceivable distance, his fingertips scarcely brushing the surface. The weight would swing. Following quite a while of this, and consistent contemplation, he found that when pushed his finger, regardless of whether he didn’t actually contact the weight, it would swing.After this, he would ruminate, while striking his fingers at lights.

Diamond Finger
Ya Zhi Jin Gang Fa
As a young fellow, the priest Hal-Tank visited Chicago, where he showed his expertise: a handstand—his whole body weight—on one pointer. The frail muscles in the pointer ought to fold, and the bones should snap under the strain. This is a serious astounding accomplishment for a young fellow, yet what genuinely makes this accomplishment mind boggling is the point at which the priest was archived playing out this expertise more than 50 years after the fact. Almost 90 years old, the unbelievable priest Hal-Tank had the option to imitate his inconceivable one-finger handstand—his Diamond Finger. His balance is stunningly serene during the demonstration—somewhere down in contemplation, he adjusts unflinchingly on his fingertip.Until his passing in 1989, he was as yet the lone man ready to play out this procedure. However he is presently expired, this amazing priest gave an uncommon, reported showing of Shaolin expertise and a captivating look into the universe of Shaolin.
