  • "The heart of a wise man is tranquil and still"
    Anger is the deadliest disease. It attacks the host and causes the host to attack and infect others. It can consume one in an instant and it can burn slowly and pass from one to another for lifetime after lifetime.
    May all those afflicted with anger find peace and tranquility.
    From the episode, "The Spirit Helper"

      Actually, although I'm not meaning to "Preach", a lot of what the Shaolin Priests teach, whether they realize it or not, is derived straight from the Holy Bible. The Holy Bible also teaches forgiveness, letting go of the past, and helping those who, even if they are our enemies, need and seek for mercy. Think of Master Khan in one episode of Kung Fu, who gave a sworn enemy a bowl of rice, and a blanket to keep warm with. We need to learn these attributes, and follow them strictly, and, while I'm at it, I place myself at the top of the list of people that need to do these things. I've known how to do either good or evil, and so many times, I've done that which is wring. May God help me...us... everybody...to do that which is right, even when we want to take things into our own hands! If someone has done us wrong, don't seek revenge. Turn it over to God, and let him take care of the situation. He knows how! And if that person that has offended you asks for Forgiveness, forgive them. It is hard to do, but if your heart is right, then reconciliation can be made. This episode, amongst many others, contains loads of true wisdom. Remember:We are, after all, only human.

    The Kung Fu series was my favorite TV show. I watched every episode, attentively, without fail. Most of my friends ere enamored by the martial arts aspect of the show, but I was more intent on hearing the spiritual wisdom of Grasshopper's masters. Such as (1:48) when Grasshopper asks Master Po, "Will you help me walk the path? And Master Po replies, "I can only point the way Grasshopper, you must walk the path yourself".

      Denying an aspect of all human nature such as anger grants it power a thousand-fold over ones self. Instead seek to embrace and understand the anger, use the understanding of your anger to understand how it connects you to others, for we all hold such darkness in ourselves in equal capacity.
      Embrace the anger, but control it. So is the method of truth for other weaknesses such as fear, which can become strength if you master these aspects instead of allowing them to master you.

    Master Po: "By taking the path that leads to the Truth." In Buddhism, the word for Truth is Dharma. Truth is an indisputable virtue, an unchanging fact like 2+2=4. People try to debate, or finesse, or interpret Truth, none of which can be done. Dharma--the unchanging truth--is one of the three virtues of Buddhism, beside the Buddha Himself and the Sangha (the community of the faithful).
