Q- Can the types of breathing (from the anime Demon Slayer ) can be used in real life
@@anshumanupadhyay7208no
@@anshumanupadhyay7208lol no💀😭
After being homeless and being attacked out of nowhere I couldn't have time to think but I didn't even think of fear neither mind, I felt absolutely free of mind
Refreshing breath of honesty and words of wisdom sir
he reason like bruce lee , free and empty your mind when fighting .
Ultra Instinct
Animals are the ultimate martial artists, they don't think about what they are going to do, they just react .
No doubt
True but the idea of martial arts is to react without thinking but in the most efficient way.
@@thevillageyid that sound almost like Bruce Lee
@@itubecollection1623 Yeah. But I think anyone who studies martial arts with an open mind comes to that conclusion. At first when you train everything feels a bit mechanical but the more you do it and start adding your own personal flavor to it it becomes more ingrained and natural.
Lol😂😂😂, they do train their reaction when they play as a baby. Like how kittens play, how puppies play. That is them practicing for the later fights.
Experience is necessary. Stop being afraid to loose. Failure is your best teacher.
wtf, who told you that? your daddy?
there are too many second chances in your world
maybe you've been in and out American judicial system too many times
your life is a playground. you've never lived
in real life, you only fail once
you only have one chance to experience failure
you are dead after, boy
Failure in a dojo, I'm ok with. Failing to take care of those I love would wreck me. And loosing to a loutish thug , getting wrecked would hurt my feelings.
Yes, you need to be loose.
What you don't want to is 'lose'.
right! in the worst case you go to hospital or die! that's nature!
better than being an afraid coward!
Bro experience is not necessary. If I fought someone my own weight class I’d win unless they’re super experienced, but otherwise I’d win. The reason I believe I can win is cuz I fight to kill and I don’t fight to survive. My philosophy is if you’re going to die might as well take them with you.
The rule for street fight is:
Break all the rules and fight dirty.
👏👏👏
The rules are there are no rules
that's what the shaolin says
does that mean you have to break the rule of breaking the rules and not break the rules? meaning that you would have to follow the rule of breaking the rule and break the rule about breaking rules and not break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules and follow the rules and break the rules?
@@anguslazyexactly
I do both Shaolin Kung fu and sanda so it’s nice seeing a master stating facts
I do Sanda also and it's better than shallow Kung fu
Did you know that sanda is originally a tamil word from India wich means "fight" .
#indiacraddleofmartialarts .
☝️😃🤜💯💢
@@STEFRICH60500P Da means fight and San means free hands in Chinese. It's just means free fight...not copying any words from anyone.
@@STEFRICH60500P ok... and
@@lemuelprince6668 no martial art is better than the other..
It depends on the person. The soul. The mind.
Bro ended the debate on which marital art is the best
It's a stupid debate tbh just a way to feel confident in the style you use like what the monk said any can be useful 🫡
@theman0110 any of the practical martial arts can be useful. All of the shitty non practical ones like kung fu, aikido, tai chi for example aren't useful at all.
All martial arts worked if you free your heart
@@theman0110ye it’s so true. I can almost imagine some people would be like “if someone like IP man practiced Muay Thai or kickboxing blah blah he would be even more deadlier compared to him practicing wingchun or whatever” well tbh it may be true to some extent but either way they all have their own uses
muy thai still best any other sucks since they all become obsolete
This was possibly the best answer that could be given.
The famous Bruce Lee once said the art of fighting without fighting..
Thats from the art of war . Look it up .
Truth. Also, avoiding confrontation by using your best weapon, your brain, is always your first option.
Brain and Nike shoes
I remember seeing at the gas station on the Palisades Parkway. I was going to the bathroom room and you were coming out and I yelled out loud... Hey! You're that Shaolin Monk. You smiled and shook my hand.
he smiled because he didn't wash his hand
@@pawa7714 You must wear a helmet with chin strap.
@@russellmanley5502 you must kiss me
God bless your family
@@pawa7714lol😅
This man is speaking the truth. I do taekwondo and my master taught me to avoid as many fights as possible. Some people who don’t do martial arts are like “can you knock me out with a kick” or they say that kicks never work in a fight. This man has wisdom
Why do u avoid fights what's the reason bc there's no point ?
Same to you, very intelligent coment
@@MxM.202 yes you are right there is no purpose in fighting unless you absolutely have to fight like if you’re being jumped by a group of 2+ but you should run if you can
Kicks work if you can make them work, but you leave yourself open.
@@MxM.202 To know you are capable of violence stops your mind from thinking about violence.
Weak people fantasize about violence all the time and are therefor more likely to be "tempted" to use violence than someone who has practiced the act killing a million times.
That was surprisingly candid answer, and absolutely true. I mean there’s several world championships that didn’t start training until their late teens or even 20s and they just have a talent for violence and the gift of being able to will the body to move the way the mind wants it to move
Amazing. Pure wisdom. After all, fighting is just movement with our body, using our limbs. Any style can be made to work. It's the practitioner that makes it work.
Be water my friend and honestly express oneself.
Bruce Lee.
Scripted. That wasn't Bruce Lee, that was a character he was playing
Sorry, But Bruce Lee was restating Daoism.
Nothing in the world is softer or weaker than water
Yet nothing is better at overcoming the hard and the strong
This is because nothing can replace it
That the weak overcome the strong
And the soft overcomes the hard
Everybody in the world knows
But cannot put into practice (78:1-7)
Bruce lee is actor not fighter sry
One of the things why i love shaolin kung fu is that their masters are so wise ❤
True words of wisdom..! Respect to the shoalin master
Some techniques in certain styles do not work for everyone because of weight, size, strength, etc., so I need to find what works for me regardless of what style I practice. That takes time as continuous sparring develops that awareness. It's like finding out there are dozens of ways of stopping a punch like blocking, parrying, catching, hitting, dodging, bob and weave, etc but dont know what's best according to my bodies capabilities.
Good thing about learning martial arts is not the art of learning how to fight but the thing they called self discipline.
I use martial arts growing up I believe it saved my life so many times. And that's why I enjoy teaching people how to defend themselves and be strong. God bless you 🙏🏾 God Where's many masks he is omnipotent and benevolent.
He basically described the philosophy of Jeet Kun Do....Bruce Lee
Its basic oriental philosphy i guess, at least that is for taoism
@@ancientdarkness3102Yeah, the Jeet Kune Do is Full Tao, only the necesary and honest
Yea shaolin monks like this guy are buddhist if i recall correctly bruce lee was a philosofist also.
Excelent words very clear full of wisdom!
It's nice to see that Shaolin has weighed in on this. Having practiced Tai Chi Chuan for over 38 years, I still hear nonsense about how some systems don't work. It's about the person, and the training. If you train well and properly and you practice, your stuff works, then you can use it. If you don't then you won't. It's simple.
He is so right. Its no lie. Some get it. Some don't.
That is the single best answer I have ever heard for this question.
Best description to shut up the couch experts ever!
100% agree. "Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless. Like water. When you pour water into a cup, it becomes the cup. When you put it in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. Water can flow, or it can crash! Be water, my friend."
That's easy for a Lake to say 🙄
But true Lake Bruce 💦
@@markrene6108 I do have quite a fitting name for a Bruce fan and a martial artist, eh? It was decided the morning of my birth instead of the planned "Josh."
That sounds familiar?
@@rosemarietolentino3218 very famous Bruce Lee quote. I missed a line, but it gets the same point. Fun fact, it's likely not his original idea but his spin on it. Since he studied a lot of sword fighting masters and more likely than not read the "book of 5 rings," he is probably just adding his spin to the philosophy used by Miyamoto Musashi. And Musashi may have done the same in his time.
He is the real deal …
what a question. the right question is are there shaolin techniques that don't pemanently maim your aggressor but can still be effective?
This master(teacher) is awesome to watch
I totally agree hell yeah I told him the person not the art
Kung Fu isn't just about fighting or hurting others. It's more about helping others and serving the community.
Bruce Lee : " Be water my friend...."
I like this person
Honesty and stright forward
Absolutely perfect answer, understanding no thought. no thinking. it doesn't mater.
this is a great video
Self-discipline, self-control, self-defence. Respect others and never be violent. Learn these and you will never be troubled in life. 🙏🙏🙏
Well put. Also necessity is the mother of invention. I had to protect myself therefore I learned how to fight. Mostly being aggressive and indifferent to consequences will win fights
Message received.. thank you 🙏
The best and honest advice ever 💯🙏
It's also depend on the fighter, the method is vary, it doesn't matter if you think too much or use pure instinct, if it works it works
My other friends laugh at my shaolin kung fu styles but i kept doing and not giving up so i actually improve my self. Thank you so much sifu❤
Best answer
Very well articulated in broken English and clearly understood Sir
THANK YOU!!! Been trying to explain that to people. Especially the jujitsu weirdos 😂
Instructions unclear. I achieved ultra instinct
With your videos I'm learning so much, I'm old man but strong in heart.
Beautiful wisdom 👍👍
The master's answer is too thoughtful.
Real teacher! Thank you.
i thought he said ,"yes "--but then "No" followed
Best answer I ha e ever heard for martial arts.
Humble and honest. He never oversold the things he have mastered. 🙏🏼
This is the answer I’ve been looking for
Amituofu 🙏🏻
This is the best explanation of connection between martial arts and practical use in the streets..
Thank You Sufu....
12:26 😂😂 love you roasting the five
some techniques work for some but not all. the only way to be a good fighter is by sparring
Mate he just explained the opposite of what you said, many people spar, but until you get a punch in the mouth, attacked by many, with a weapon you won't know how you would react. Be free of mind & whatever is act.
None of you have ever trained so why the argument?
His point it...the style doesn't matter.
ALL styles are effective...it just depends on who is using the style.
If you are weak and lack the warrior spirit...learning muay thai and bjj isn't going to save you in a street fight.
ALL styles are effective.
A natural badass who decides to train aikido will destroy a weak scared beta who goes to the boxing gym.
This is very deep wisdom 🙏 its like cat or dog, they dont practice any martial art but when is fight needed they are extremely fast, nimble, and deadly, its because they are connected, no traped in mind, crystal clear instinkt, some people are lost in mind more, some less, some are very physical and have this connection and they can fight even if they never trained it, some people can make beautifull kicks, nice for effect but dont have this instincts and free mind, you can learn it and improve it but only with good coach and real sparing.
Amituofo!
Sound like Bruce lee
I like this answer a lot. I feel like this viewpoint is really underrated.
He's so wholesome c:
A true MASTER 💪🏿💪🏾💪🏻💪🏽💪💪🏼.
Love this🔥 A good fighter will kick ur butt with any martial art or no martial art. A bad fighter will lose with any martial art or no martial art.
Thank you for this information sir😇
Great response
THANK GOD there was subtitles!!!
So, “Hold my beer. I got this,” is a good plan? Got it.
Beautiful words. Thank you for your knowledge.
Shi Yan Ming! Long time since our visit to the Shaolin Temple in 1999. I hope that you are doing well.
You know....that was actually profound. Thank you, sir!
✊🏿 i respect his honesty and street smarts. When adrenaline kicks in training goes out the window.
❤ I agree with you sir!
I'm like a lion, I sleep 20 hours a day and can fight whenever I must.
Lao tzu said it best if you have to think in a fight you're already dead
Actually makes sense. Because when in fight we often get the guilt trip. Only a clear mind is free of that..and can fight.
Best martial arts video ever!!!
Can every martial arts be used?
Steven Seagul: Imma stop you right there (aikido)
Well its true to a degree i dont think it includes fake martials arents that dont even teach a punch or kick grapple or throw throws are used i think in mma and street fights youll find examples of all as he says depends on person and skills always thats how it is.
well said, master.. and very impressive English command. well done
The master tells you the real reason, discipline and thoughts of how to react in any situation. Good statement that he said on CZcams.🙂
Perfect answer.
Thank you Sir
I've used it, it does work very well!
Bro basically said what Ra's al Gul said in Batman begins training is nothing without the will to act
Alot of people need to see this.... ALOT!!!!
SHI YAN MING!!!!!! 😁
“ open your mind, be shapeless, formless, like water. Be water my friend “

Great wisdom.
extremely simple but mind blowing revelation
Amitofu I miss you so much Sifu I wish you all the best. Again Amitofu
Great massage
Message to mate 👍
❤❤❤❤❤❤ thanks for sharing this is exactly what I always say thanks Laoshi for taking the words out of my mouth
The most clear cut and honest answer
Shi Yan MIng is such a Good man...👍👍He is very helpful with his students & his community....
Gotta say, I haven't trained at a better school than his. It's intense.
In my experience boxing is best for street fight because it's very few technics but very very useable.
A true master induces in you, a warrior mindset and not just a particular style of fighting.
Very good answer
You are amazing thank you ♥️
Amituofo!
He gave an enlightened answer. Fighting is ultimately about how much fight is in that person. Either you have it or not. You don't think about it. You just know until someone can show you that you don't know.
You have such a calming and at the same time authoritative voice. Also I always wonder if you guys have some very old artifacts in your temple, I just love antiques hence I had to ask lol?
Yes. 3.5 years in Shaolin Chun Kung Fu.
