I'm from Afghanistan and I went to Shaolin Temple in China 5 years ago. One of the important thing I noticed that Chinese people really respect the fact that Budhidharma is from India and he brought this shaolin culture to China. Many cultures and countries don't recognise an art or fact that isn't theirs. my respect to both India and China ❤
Most Chinese believe COVID is not from china and most Indians don't know Putin is a wanted criminal by international criminal court and at the same time telling about a story of someone ripping off left arm more than a hundred years ago 😂
Well said and very positive. :)
And sad to say, nowadays, almost a lot never see India and even looked down on India while praising China, Japan and Korea..
@@justinvillar7008 India is a great culture, but has many problems. If only India and China could be more friendly together and then Asia really would be great. People on this planet need to break away from alliance with the war monger USA. Just my humble opinion.
What an interesting life you are living my friend. I'm moving to India at the end of the year.
Sadhguru finally talked about Shaolin Temple and Bodhidharma. I just thought of Bodhidharma these days and Sadhguru started talking. I am Chinese
He has spoken on bruce lee as well
Two days ago I've contacted a shaolin monastery to ask about a volunteering program. This morning I've practiced Shamhavi after a period of rest and now I see this.This video has been uploaded the same day.
@@adoa77i was also thinking about bodhidharma day before yesterday and even watched 7aum arivu movie once more 😮
Don't worry Bharath will give Knowledge always....
If you are Chinese, you should know he is lying. There is no evidence, no historical record. Yet indians claim it as facts. Chinese record says different.
This video is exactly how I have been taught AND experienced Shaolin kung fu. We regard Bodidharma as the first patriarch of both Shaolin kung fu, chi kung (internal aspect) and zen. And before him ofcourse the line of teachers back to the Buddha. Unfortunately the current Shaolin temple in China is a tourist trap. I mean no offense, it is a great wushu school but the essence of Shaolin was almost eradicated from China in several instances from before the fall of the Qing dynasty and especially the cultural revolution. Fortunately the arts live on outside China and in China itself several Daoist schools still maintain a very high level. For those genuine in their searching, when you are ready a master appears. Don't limit yourself - genuine yoga, kungfu, Taoist arts - different brands but the same essence. They are humanity's greatest treasures.

Bodhidharma lived to be 150 years old. He is of the Kshatriya race. He sailed from India to Guangzhou and then went north. Several of his disciples are also famous in China. I am Chinese.
You are not Chinese

I remember going to stay at Shaolin Temple in 2000. Hard training. Bodhidharma's Cave is up on the hill above the Temple. Dhyana was pronounced "Chan" by the Chinese and Chan Buddhism spread to Korea where it is known as Seon and then onto Japan where it is known as Zen. We can say that Shaolin was the first Zen Buddhist Temple. This is a great connection between India and the Far East. Also, later the Chinese Monk Xuanzang in the Tang Dynasty travelled to India to collect the Buddhist Sutras. India and China and the Far East share strong spiritual links.
Chinese Chan integrated with taoism and confucianism, that is why it could be spread in East Asia, South East Asia
It may have independently gone to Korea as well, but the Japanese Buddhists went to the Shaolin Temple and studied there before returning to Japan and starting Zen. This is according to both Shaolin and Zen records. 🙏
@@aubreyekstrom8919 Many Japanese people went to Tang and Song China to find enlightenment, including Zen Master Dogen who went to Tiantong Temple near Ningbo then returned to start the Soto Zen Sect. :)

Bro u know who is father of kalaripaatyu u don't just listen 😅..lord Vishnu ji
@@Mog801 not Vishnu, it was Agastya Muni the father of the southern Indian mysticism, he is one of the saptarishis of Adiyogi. Kalaripayattu took place in southern India, not Himalayas though his abode was Kailash. It was used to defend oneself barehandedly against tigers, buffaloes, elephants, and humans.
@@nameless5350 go and searc ...who is father kalaripaatyu
Bodhidarma was also an expert in Buddhist Kasina Bahvna meditation, a meditation based on the nature elements and that’s why Shaolin body transformation meditation is also based on the 5 elements techniques.
general shen's story makes me think of isaac netero from hunterxhunter. The character must have been inspired from general shen. I cannot even imagine the intensity of devotion and courage it requires to make such a sacrifice without a second thought. Truly inspirational.
Netero for sure based on monks and all those stories ✈

This is the story I learned as a student of Shaolin Kung Fu.
Did you ever have to Kung Fu anyone?
@@johnreidy2804 yes
@@jong7513 Tell me what happened. I love stories like this
@johnreidy2804 I was a bouncer for 18 years, so I have more than a few. Nothing to brag about, and I always felt bad for embarrassing or hurting someone, even if they insisted on fighting. I wish I could say I've never been in a fight, and I envy those who can say that.
@@jong7513 Oh man i wanted details
General Shauan cut his own hand to become disciple of Bodhidharma. But here I'm so lucky that you came into my life !! Namaskaram Sadhguru!!
Hey sadhguru when can I meet you.
He didn't cut his hand 🖐🏿
The whole Arm!
Maybe Sadhguru can teach you some Shaolin Kungfu too.
Hui'Ke.
Very good animation work and glad to have watched this. I had no idea how the Shaolin Temple started.
Many great beings have walked this planet from its every corner. But what we as humans are doing, just fighting each other endlessly
My shaolin teacher Shi Xing Ying told me this exact story of Bodhidharma. He was said to have lived 150 years.
Me as an Indian did not know about this till I saw this Video.
😳now i know, one handed namaste, i never do but i see friends they used to do it. Thank you Sadhguru, that is a delightful story, you are a wonderful storyteller ❤🙏
At the Shaolin Temple when we use the one handed salute we say, "Amituofo!" The Mandarin version of the Sanskrit Amitibha. Usually taken to mean "Buddha bless you", it literally means "Ami the Buddha" Ami the Buddha is one of the 7 Paradise Buddhas, best known for his teaching that there are billions of Buddhas.
But the Shaolin bow is the one hand over the closed fist, it a mudra on the back the thumbs make a yin yang form. ☯️.
@@aubreyekstrom8919yep that's what my Taiwanese friend taught me, and my grandmaster was the traditional 2 hand Shaolin mudra
Really glad he talked about this, as westerners don’t know the history of the Shaolin temple and where Martial arts cane from. Have to give credit to the Chinese who have really developed this amazing art.
We do.
Do you know how many Shaolin schools there are in the USA, and they all tell this story pretty much. If you're a martial artist in the West you know this story. My teacher has a tablet at his school at the temple. In the words of viceroy newt gunry " you assume too much"
Finally, Sadguru talked about Shaolin temple and Kung-fu Origin
❤️❤️❤️🥳 I appreciate this
From practicing my Shaolin Kungfu enough, I already knew this story, and other history. The kungfu speaks to me. Believe it or believe that. 🙏
ITS NOT KALARI OF KERALA ITS TAMIL NADUS FIGHTING ART
@@JamalMeasara you can debate it with Sadhguru
Leave me out of it
I believe you because you have written this concept by your soul
It happens
The beauty of history is like gold in the mind of the master.
9 years and cutting off your arm, this planet had witnessed some great great men, not sure if i could wait even 9 days.
In Asia there is still lot of practices of students that wait for their teachers by waiting out for days in front of their house. It's not just tradition but they do it on their own. Lot of the times they do it because it's between life and death.
OMG, Proud to know that even Martial arts are founded in India. The greatest part on earth.🙏🙏💪💪💪

@@ganeshshardul9319Bharat
Totally appreciate the animation and background music😊
Great video presentation,thank you so much.
Practicing martial arts has made me energetic which is like you said felt like a firm yoga. It always seemed like the two related. I didn't know Kalaripayattu was the origin of martial arts. Pretty cool.
Yes, it is.
During colonial times, british banned it. So many of it moves are reduced and not known. After independence it was re-started. But back then it was very active art form.
He is lying. There is no evidence, no historical record. Yet indians claim it as facts.
Yoga actually means discipline. So there are many types of "yoga". The martial arts disciplines were banned by the British in India. Martial arts also existed already in China when Bodhidharma arrived, including at the Shaolin Temple. Taoist masters, as well as Chinese military had their own styles for centuries before Bodhidharma. What made the Shaolin Temple unique in regard to martial arts was the monks practiced every day, all day, for most of their lives, and so were unparalleled masters. With that reputation, many martial artists from all over China, and the world, went to study with them, and in turn shared their own styles. The Shaolin Temple was the first time all these styles got fully documented, and their training was systematized.
Origin of Shaolin gung fu. Not all martial arts
Not all martial arts. Boxing and wrestling are human instinct and every culture has their own system

Wooow thats interesting man thanks for this great knowledge
Amazing information. Thanks Mr. Sadhguru Ji
EXCELLENT POINT SIR
I've researched the history of the Chinese & Japanese Martial Systems years ago quite in depth. From an Historical scholarly perspective, or any other for that matter, there are a great many versions and accounts of these histories, depending on WHEN/WHERE & from WHOM these "historical re-accountings" are sourced. The vague & oversimplified story here is a popular one and asserts the Indian Buddhist connection/origins of contemporary popular Martial Art systems throughout Asia. Yet, here is so refined and condensed so that it is almost non-sensible.
Thank you much Sir Sadhguru; there are great men in India
i’ve never heard this, but i’m interested, thanks for sharing ♥️

Great Video - thank you for this! Jay Shri Ram!
This is the best historic summary, I have read, watched a lot of Chinese TV series and movie of DalaiDharma( or BodhiDharma), he had blue eyes and he himself only practised Yoga. Chinese Martial Arts was not quite given to it by BodhiDharma, Shaolin monks were incentivised to practice martial arts from then, in China, martial artists were everywhere, Even in First Emperor Q'in era, a lot of generals and kings were already well versed in it. Shaolin martial arts were also given by a lot of other contemporary artists, so it has many styles and forms and shapes
Listening in Sadgurus voice is always mesmerising
I wonder if he bathes

The important part of this story is that bodhidharma had laid the foundation of the patriach lineage of his teaching called Chan Buddhism, which illuminates the Mahayana and vajrayana teachings. However, because the Chinese had not understood the meaning of his visit and had not listened to his wisdom he had only left them written teachings, which later had to be translated into Chinese by another Indian monk that was in China at that time. Bodhidharma continued his journey back to central Tibet and taught the Tibetan people his wisdom of the vajrayana teachings.
Namskaram Sadhguru....
Nice to share the story to the world. Let’s me obtain the mother of martial arts now
Me too. I am planning to do the same as well
He is lying. There is no evidence, no historical record. Yet indians claim it as facts.
Almost all historians and scholars who have researched the history of Kung Fu have refuted the myth that Bodhidharma created Shaolin kung fu because there are numerous contradictions in the legend and a wealth of records showing that the monks themselves created their martial arts. No document ever mentions Bodhidharma knowing or instructing the monks in combat techniques. This is the section that is propaganda for India. Bodhidharma was neither a soldier, a warrior, or a doctor; he was a "zen teacher". At Shaolin, he gave Buddhist dharma lessons. It is a widely held belief that Bodhidharma taught the monks the 18 yoga forms, as per Shaolin's own narrative, instead of the Indian art form known as "Kalaripayattu", which is plainly never recorded in any record. Despite Indians' claims that "Kalaripayattu" is the oldest martial technique in the world, it is only mentioned in documents from the 15th century. Bodhidharma could not have accomplished it because he passed away in the sixth century, even if historians date it to anywhere between the ninth and the twelfth centuries. According to the monks, the genesis date of Kung Fu is likewise inflated, as there is no record of the monks practising their own martial art technique while Bodhidharma was alive. In truth, there is no record of Shaolin boxing until 1610, in the book 'Exposition of the Original Shaolin Staff Method,' authored by "Cheng Zongyou", who discussed the roots of Shaolin's martial skills and stated that its origins lie hundreds of years before the publishing of the book.
