- A speech that will leave you with many questions to ask yourself.
Own your life!
Life doesn't get any easier. You are getting stronger! Master Shi Heng Yi (释恒義) is the headmaster of the Shaolin Temple Europe (歐洲少林寺) and takes over in this function the physical as well as the mental training of the novices, disciples and master students of the monastery in Otterberg / Germany.
His goal and endeavor is not only to explain and convey theoretical principles in an understandable way, but above all to make this knowledge practical and tangible in daily life, and usable for people.
For more than 30 years, Master Shi Heng Yi has been studying and practicing the interaction between mind and body. His strength is the ability to smoothly combine this knowledge with physical exercises and to practice Martial art -Kung Fu and Qi Gong. He has an academic background but he prefers to live at the Shaolin Temple Europe, Monastery located in Otterberg, Germany. Since 2010 he has been taking care of the settlement and he personifies the sustainable development and spreading the Shaolin culture and philosophy. As a contemporary monk, Master Yi holds a smartphone in the folds of his clothes as he sees no contradiction between living together with ancient knowledge and high technology. “The universal law of being successful and happy at the same time means finding the balance”, says master Yi. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
"Knowledge without practice is just book Knowledge' 👏👏
Translate to English please:
Ага, конечно. Обычное знание - это просто знание, и ничего другое. Если не практиковаться, то, конечно, знания и навыки отпадут, но они останутся - закон сохранения знаний в природе. В этом не согласен с монахом. А так, да, умные вещи говорит человек. Правда, всё равно есть угроза заснуть от философии.
Don't let knowledge stand in the way of truth.🙏
@@pauldickinson5316 You're great philosopher, congratulations.
@@A_Ivler You are great at english, thank you. Пусть война скоро закончится.🙏
@@A_Ivler you don,t have to agree to disagree,everyone has different of capacity,your cup may b full, other may differ,knowledge is the same,if it from the heart than constructive ,from the head destructive!,
How many of you noticed he explained "Choice" and thanked once for the "Chance" and left the "Change" for us to work with.
Wow
Duuuuhhhh.
Good catch ❣️👍🏻
You have the choice to be a better person than to leave a sarcastic comment like this@@weeki_wachee
Idk why no body’s talking about the million dollar advice he gave ….we need to make us stronger again,
…..get more physicality into our life 💪🏻♥️
As a psychotherapist, I can relate to his thoughts. Too many people living in their heads, too many theories, so less practice, disconnecting body or using it as a mechanical and performative tool. Such a simple, concrete and powerful ted talk ❤
The man literally beats a stick with his own body in front of a crowd and then says: ‘now the stress is gone’.
Doesn’t that make you second guess his coping mechanism ?
It serves to remove aggression I assume
@@madalinmd1119 I think everyone has to cope with problems in their lives, that's what makes us human. To completely remove problems would be to remove our humanity.
Then your license should be revoked
My psychotic can beat up your psychic.
"The most beautiful people
we know are those
who have known defeat,
known suffering, known struggle,
and have found their way
out of the depths.
They have a understanding of life
that fills them with compassion.
Beautiful people don't just happen,
they're created through hardship."
👍Amazing!!
hi ahmed, is this quote from Master Shi Heng Yi? i really like it .
Excellent
Hmmm... personally I'd rather not have to suffer and struggle to gain "understanding". I'd much rather gain it with lots of cash, food, fast cars and faster women, just like the mega-rich!
- Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
This man has gone through god knows what kind of hard work.... Just look at his hands.... This man has gone through alot.... Respect for this guy
I came down here for this comment.
Most of us do man... a lot of people who you didn't hear about (or haven't hear about). Maybe even your co-workers. Go through a lot. Pure grind and pain of everyday life.
At the end, we don't know what is going on in another life, another person, what kind of internal "demons" this person is fighting through, or what kind of personal problems are in their lives. We never do. All we can do is our best, that sometimes we notice that, in the other person, that maybe something is wrong there, or the person needs help. But in most cases... we won't. We have our own "demons" to fight with, our day to day struggles.
But I bet that guy would. He would notice it. Straight away. And he also would have been there for us at that point.
Edit: usual stuff > grammar/spelling.
One thing I keep learning from munks and even fictional characters like dumbledore or gandalf, is that they give their advice in such a mystic and simple manner, that allows the receiver to think for themselves rather than getting the answer right away. I've found that even speaking in riddles or asking questions rather than giving an answer can be a really great thing when giving advice.
1. His voice is really calming and captivating
2. The things we must all contend with are "choice", and the "consequences" of them
3. Mental strength gets you through, so it's worth investing in. Resilience.
4. Physical activity can build mental resilience and impact a kind of wisdom.
So true about physical activity. I discovered this with strength training and yoga. They really are gentle and easy ways to build resistance and overcome adversity.
I I travel in asia 16 yaers and i do zazen just seeat and do nothing for long time keep no mowing body take strong skills posture . Then I meet people do yoga iven kung fu body bilding and when some of them camm to do zazen retret for long time 10 days or 3 moths meny run away mind and emocion take them out they cannot do....Why is so dificult for meny to do so simple action just to seat doing nothing. When we seat douwn do nothing we face the reality of mind body and emocion and mental fomacion wich change like sesone time but we still unmowing thats the secret to become peace joy and no suffer

His first Ted Talk literally changed my life. This one has refreshed and renewed my perspective for sure!
me tooooooo
Me too. I am currently enrolled in his Self Mastery course. If you do the work and pay attention, you will be rewarded 10-fold.
@@michaelfforte he’s a fraud. He’s a Polish American called Andy Stefkovic who used to front the metal band Dead Horse. His regular accent is pure Brooklyn if you listen carefully he slips up every now and then… he’s a paid actor look it up.
Did it though? :D
@@AnnhilateTheNihilist Are you referring to Shi Heng Yi?
"Doing cool stuff, that looks nice..." Lmao. All joking aside, this is a good lesson.
"Fulfilment of desire is of personal value. Fulfilment of vision is of global value." That's such a great perspective.
😂
I believe two things make the difference in life- will and skill.
He is Aang from last Airbender ! As a Buddhist myself I love the wisdom he shares. We need more wisdom in the world
This man is an amazing teacher. From ways of the warrior to spiritual guidance and self discipline. Every word this man speaks is priceless wisdom 👏
I love his Truth, as he lives it, speaks it, and exemplifies it in his entire being. He is totally inspirational for our world on every level, this is clear!
Leading by example. It was always meant to be that way. Always. ❤️
~ APRIL LIPKE
It is THE truth.. its just that we can "see" a fraction of it...
Very convincing .Thank you ❤️
😊
Dear Master Shi Heng Yi,your ethos & wisdoms ring true.
We need to care and show /share love & compassion.
Active body will keep our minds,heart & soul well & grounded,as well as nature.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
Love & light,
Muna Light
🌺🔆🙏🏽
He's so eloquent and knows how to pass across information.
Right👍 “Life doesn’t get easier, you get stronger”
Damn this guy is so smart and the way he explains things…..that’s our life.
I do agree that physicality helps things like depression.
I can confirm this. Finding the right exercise is important. For me, jogging helps the most.
Trying to get me to exercise when I’m depressed is like asking an amputee to move the fingers of the arm that was cut off
@@jakubLonghorn I am with you. I slept this whole weekend and my family we had a birthday for my brother. I just couldn't get out of bed. It's so horrible!
@@jakubLonghorntry simple morning walk.
"Too busy with their body, too busy with activity to be depressed" I can attest to this because of my job. When I am at work, I am usually in the best mindset. I tend to forget bad things going on in my life, such as bad grades, getting over a girl, your family at home, whatever it may be. It still occupies my mind at work sometimes, but often, since I am working with my hands digging holes, carrying heavy things, moving stuff, or installing things in the ground, I am a bit more at ease.
So, are you working 80% of your time?
Attitude is people’s issue when it comes to life’s problems. If you can change your attitude, you can change your surroundings. If you can change your surroundings, you can change your life. If you can change your life, you can change your world.
I can see the level of faith and confidence in his eyes, in front of thousands people... tough man.
Even the last sentence "Nice evening!!" shows how present he is ,living in only the moment!!
We have forgotten that the simplest way to gain wisdom is simply application with whatever art or goal you choose .love it enough to not stop even if you fail
I’m a 35 yo mum of two, and I have been listening to sadhguru for nearly 5 years, I have met him, and have done inner engineering in Bangalore India, but as of the past two weeks I have finally sat down or stood up to really listen and put into practice what these great masters are trying to enlighten us about. It might sound a little silly and I know some Shaolin warriors eat meat, but I want to follow the other school of Shaolin warriors who eat vegetarian, so I have decided to eat that way in 2023, and hopefully beyond. It’s so hard to always remember what you deem the truth or the way at that moment of listening, or coming face to face with an epiphany, realisation, aha moment, but we cannot give up. We must remember as the Master said, success is accepting that there is failure all the way. No matter how many times we muck up, let’s get back up again. In the spirit ofKorean and Japanese, Fighting ❤ or Buen Camino (if you know 😉) may the year of the rabbit reward you o’ brave soul 🎉
I have been doing the beginner wu bu quan stances and breathing exercises and it feels so empowering 🙌🏾
@Sherseo - scary thing is? All of that has been known for ages.
Donald Hoffman, John Archibald Wheeler, James Glattfelder, Seth Lloyd, Eduardo Kastrup... (yeah, Kastrup is good in modern age, very good in fact).
Also, helps to read a bit of something from a "classic philosophy", sort of Jung or even Joseph Campbell, Edward Edinger, Gary Lachman - and get familiar with "archetypes", and myths. Plus the usual "suspects" of a classic philosophy and old stories: Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Confucius, Homer or even Marcus Aurelius or Hypatia (or Cicero, as his observations in "The Nature of Gods" as spot on, and are relevant to this day).
Then move to something like research done by: Peter Fenwick, Pim van Lommel, or Ian Stevenson books, or even Tom Shroder book (kind of easy to digest view of the research done by Ian Stevenson). As that is opening a new chapter, still connected with research regarding something like a consciousness and what exactly reality is. And that is an eye opening stuff, especially Fenwick, with the research of "what happens when you die", and his youtube interview: "What Really Happens When You Die | Peter Fenwick's Studies of End-of-Life-Phenomena", as Fenwick did research at various hospitals, hospices, talking to professional nurses, doctors and also patients and their families. Pim van Lommel have done similar work.
At the end, we are much more than just a physical body, in a physical universe, and there is a lot of that hs is saying, that has been known for a long time. It is just most of the so called "Western" civilization forgotten about it, or should I say "hasn't cared about" or "doesn't care about it" anymore. Too bad it is becoming the same for the other nations too now, all about greed, money and egos, and the next year stock market price, while the whole ecosystems are dying in the name of greed.
Sometimes it is a pleasure to listen to talks like that, but also sad to see that is has been known for a long time, it is just we partly forgotten it, or simply don't care anymore. And since Cicero time, nothing has really changed that much regarding the "human nature".
I agree with his arguments about depression to an extent. The increase of individualism is also another contributing factor. When our brain's wiring is incompatible with society, a brain that thrives on connections and community, the side effects are anxiety and depression.
Developed collectivist societies are no less suffering than individualistic countries when it comes to depression. They tend to have different reasons behind it, though.
It is a PRIVILEG to listen to YOU.
Тhank you so much for your online presence.
Look how peace he is fully intuned with surroundings the shaolin are amazing top tier martial artist and teachers .
The connection they have to their surroundings and control over every aspect of their body is something I am very envious of, I hope to reach that point one day
You are a gift to this world, thank you Shifu 🍃🤍🙏
The best I've ever felt in my entire life was when I lost over 150 pounds and became a martial artist. At my peak, I felt untouchable. I felt godly, literally. And I say that completely without any ego or attachment. All I'm saying is he's right. We are too weak and lazy. Cave men didn't have time for depression and neither should we.
His apperance and the way he talks makes him very authentic, all he said make sense and he should be seen more in public
You have changed my life. Completely and forever 💗🙏🏻🇦🇷
Much simpler than the first Tedx talk. I think in the intervening years it’s just become so abundantly clear that the hallmark of modern society is now the glorification of weakness and uselessness, so 师傅 just gets straight to the point now. Great talk.
Great call bud; on the hallmark of society. Great call.
Thankyou so much for sharing this Shi Heng Yi.
You are a wonderful soul.
That just might be the most powerful moral of a story I ever heard.
Deepest thougt provoking Truth ever... Physicality!!!! The body when active will teach the fragile mind to put down the thoughts of I cant Do It ... The Body temple is the key. And I've been a victim of my mind over my body for years now. Thanks Shi Heng and Shaolin for the Push. He's right how many lives change by watching motivational podcats... I will be back to post my rediscovery and words of encouragement to others. Practice
thank you again legendary master, one of the wisest people alive
Agreed very important that’s how I make my own decisions. OWN YOUR LIFE: “What the ordinary one seeks is in others. What the wise one seeks is in himself.”
The best way of understanding a book, isn’t to take notes or highlight the best quotes, you don’t need that if you apply that knowledge to your life daily.
This one left a different feeling, compared to the first talk. I don't know if Master Shi reads any comments, probably not, cause there are too many... But I'd like to thank him for the talk he gave us. This was a great talk, and he is a great speaker. I'm just a guy from Russia, but I'd also like to further share what I think on the matter of the missing link.
Care and discipline take a lot of energy. I've been feeling lately, that our energy is only that much, for every one of those 8 billion human beings. Each is given their own natural amount of daily/weekly/monthly/yearly energy. Then we have the mentioned choice.
It is also my observation, that we don't always realize the total expenditure and where exactly does it go. How much of that energy is taken by what we do over the day? It's not easy to track, since we are talking about psychic energy, not physical. If you are out of physical energy, you muscles can not move. If you are out of psychic energy, you thoughts can not move and you are left with your default state. Which may happen to be... Depression. Or apathy. Depending on how you were brought up and how much of that sweet care you've received.
Meditation and physical excersize may (and will) help you change the default state and give you a solid ground for your life. But. If you find energy for meditation and excercize. If you struggle to find it, then maybe you have already exchanged that energy for something else. Maybe something you don't actually need?
Maybe. Just maybe, it so happened that you'd been shown ways to trade your energy, that are far away from being optimal or even useful to you? It is not your fault, but it is now your responsibility to notice this kind of thing, since you do already own your life, even if you do not fully accept this fact yet.
👍
Браво, Евгений!
@@lalitspeaks Thank you.
Wow this was powerful
can related, have been realising it more and more recently until this video brought to that sort of topic.
i have been really empty recently, being at the default setting of myself these days, i was really thinking of getting energy from some where else, and that thing was, to go out and meet people, just simply doing things, like the Master Shi said. and i did, which this video really confirmed about it, as well as what you said. Thank you, and hope this comes to more realization to others as well.
have a wonderful day.
His first TedxTalk is one of the best insightful speeches I have came to know in my short life.
A great Máster! I dare to say that HIS SEEDS HAVE BEEN PLANTED in those who are open to this philosophy. I really appreciate his transmission!
I haven't seen his first talk, but I do know it's a rare feeling that someone deeply believes in what they're saying, and that's exactly how it felt listening to him.
It was the same for me with Kano, Liu Kang, Rayden, Johnny Cage, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Sonya...
After all, how else you are going to test your might!
@@tannhauser5399 bruh
He's entirely correct. We have become a WEAK society. The technology is destroying us. I run a farm, and getting consistent help and people who want to work has become beyond a challenge. It wasn't that way 10 years ago. People wanted to work and learn and develop this trade. Now, they don't think they need to show up when they committed to show up or to do a good job. They quit easy. They take offense easy. They dump their responsibility easy. They cannot handle feedback or understand the importance of getting the animals taken care of. They want basic skillset to happen easily for them. Forget about obtaining advanced skillset. They fantasize about having advanced skillset because they are depressed and unfulfilled within themselves, so they try once, fail, and quit. However, you cannot tell them they failed and to try again. You have to say, "Oh, good job." Maybe you'll get them to keep going. They might also think how wonderful they are and they've achieved what they wanted, so then they quit. It's come down to this...I've stopped trying to get people to work, and I pretty much do it all myself. It's sad because the skills will not be inherited into the next generation. I worked through my apprenticeships in exchange for lessons. If you work for money, you don't get the lessons. You walk away with money and less knowledge. If you work for the lessons, you gain knowledge, and then you can charge others to teach them. WORK. Get used to the idea because it never ends.
I understand what you mean, it has become very difficult. What solved the problem for me: A positive company culture. I consciously created our culture, I communicate it, we live this culture in the company and we have a very family-like atmosphere. My employees don't earn very much, but they enjoy coming to work because of our corporate culture. That's what motivates us as humans, whereas money is just a piece of paper. No one gets up in the morning motivated to get a piece of paper, but being around positive people who understand, appreciate and support you definitely does.
Movies warned us about this for ages
I agree, and I want to thank you for elaborating on a subject that is so important and sadly becoming lost.
Indeed. And more to that is how arrogant and non lissening people are to each other. Ignoring or not "beleiving" that person has anything to come with because one is not listening many times.
Weak is also still weak if one need 1 type of person who one choose to listen to instead of start of firing up that old dusty shut down of the brain up there, that is anyway in controll mostly by others
A leader leads with gratitude and appreciation for the people who work for them. Remember they are your asset, take care of your people and watch your empire grow. Greed and money will never be taken with you. Your legacy as a good boss, person, etc stays here. Your only as good as your team is..
Your wisdom keeps me inspired.
I'm so ecstatic that i heard him i really wanted to hear this speech 🙏
One of the best speakers!!!!
dear Shi Heng Yi thank you again. PLEASE do NOT listen to anybody how to do a talk and slides. DO YOU!!!! DO Shi Heng Yi!!
This talk will ‘upset’ a as it will hit various spots but it’s so to the point. Such wisdom on the path of self-mastery.
Absolutely amazing. It’s a mystery to me why the Asian civilization never conquered the world because these people are so far ahead of everyone else by a long shot. They have a calm, confident, inner peace, but at the same time they have a very powerful presence about themselves. Everything that they do, they eat, they think, they practice, all has purpose. And the purpose is self development, what a remarkable man this gentleman is. We can learn so much from him.
He never conquered the world because he conquered himself which makes him the true king of the world.
Wow. This thread👍👍👍👍👍
It is always a joy to listen to the wiseness of Master Shi Heng.. And as he soo rightly said to put into practice what we are watching and listening to if this is what we are all searching for!!! . Peace and giving love and a meaning to our treasured lives ❤
I have so much love and respect for this man 🙏🏼❤️
Your words has made a strong impact on me two years ago, I have started new journey of transforming myself , its a life time journey,I am so thankful for everything. I love what you do, all of you. Bless you.
Thank you for this new TED talk and your wisdom. You look a little tired, take care.
What I am taking from this video :
Whatever you learned till now, from today onwards Just practice practice & practice till you achieve the perfection.
strength, grace, and brilliancy, that is what he embodies.💪💪💪
Great speech. After I came across Shi Heng Yi's Videos almost 3 years ago I started practicing the Ba Duan Jin (8 Brocades Exercise) daily at home and it helped me to balance physically and mentally, change parts of my life, helped as a routine through tough times, strengthened me during good times. And it activated anchient wisdom, which is stored in our bodies.
A few months ago I stopped with this exercise. I had to and wanted to adjust my routine, because of body issues and because my body asked me to activate a different kind of energy. So I switched to something totally different - succesfully. It now slowly came to an end.
And for 2 days ago I kept hearing "Ba Duan Jin" first thing after waking up. So I started again with great joy and kept some of the routine from the past months 😀 What a treat. I love the intelligence of our bodies ❤️
Very inspirational. I have signed up for the self mastery program. I am looking forward to learn and gain some wisdom from you.🙏
There is nothing it's always you vs you. Never complain🙏🏻😊
@Master Dhi Heng Yi - 🙏🙏 Your ending in your first TEDx was more impactful because it was your own.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. Always grateful for your love and action.
Greetings from Montenegro
After relocation from Russia i started interesting in Eastern culture and it’s so cool! It makes me stronger (thanks to buddhism), it improves my brain (thank to videos like this one and learning Japanese and their culture in general), it gets better my health (thanks to Chinese tea and Qigong techniques) and that’s not everything i mentioned but i don’t feel alone anymore. I’m looking for job in analytics and feel no one will be able to stop me on my way, but two years ago i hadn’t such strong confidence. Thank you 🎉
Best wishes, Anton
Похожая история, переехал в Таиланд, увлекся даосизмом, начал практиковать цигун, открыл новые пути для профессионального развития) Удачи тебе!
My massage , never underestimate the energy of prayer. For people chosen by God , the power of prayer energy is able to create changes and effects ( consequences ) in the world and in the universe.

''The Future doesn't matter if you are not there''
Yeah, so is the... present. As most of us think about past, what could have been, or the next day, the future.
Who trully lives in the present? As life is just a bunch of short "moments of time" or "short moments IN time", right now, in the present.
Such simple concept(s), yet so difficult to achieve, as most of us is not conditioned to do so.
Although spoken to thousands (maybe millions) this talk felt different. You seemed much more at ease and very much yourself. I'm glad you got the chance to share the message. Very much needed in our sick world.

YES ! I began training at age 50. I saw Shaolin rope dart and was amazed. I have hurt myself many many times. I can now do rope dart and meteor hammer at full speed. The weaker this world gets , the tougher I become. Shaolin martial arts saved my life.
Only through the spiritual life can we achieve intelligence... love and light makes you smarter... and stronger...
I cried during the 17 minute mark, he is spot on and we just ignore ourself.
Thank you, master Shi Heng Yi!
This master needs more attention!
Thank you
I have so much respect for this man!!
Love him!
A strong person is good, noble and impressive 🎉 He must require strength because otherwise he will never attain power. Power to him who power exerts.
@5:27 It’s a savage moment for me! Such assertiveness & I will remember this forever
Sifu you are too modest ...
You are a messenger and yes everything you say is true !...
Wow, short, sweet, & to the point, most motivating, & inspirational, words of wisdom that moved me! Shifu, what a privilege for us your public--glad you're in the world for us to hear & see--and the world is better for it.
important work, reminding people what to do to invest in their own lives, especially now. greetings from ukraine, zaporozhye.
Tomar la decisión interna del cambio y la práctica con coraje y foco. Gracias Shaoling!
The Shaolin G is Back to bring Major Value. Salut
I decided today that i would get myself out of bed early and start taking walks, just by myself, to regain the stamina i have lost as of late. It felt great to get outside and move the body. I got to spend time with myself and really accept & cherish the things i value, and make a change to self-improve. I know what i want, and as long as there is time, will keep heading towards it.
Lovely to listen to honest and open perspectives like his talks.
There is always hope as long as you can call it today. Now is the moment. Time waits for no one but is always there waiting to see our choices and then takes us there
I don't know when this TEDx took place, but I very much thank you Shifu Shi Heng Yi for talking to my country fellows.
We already forget what a poet from Transylvania wrote, in the 19 century: George Cosbuc: "viata asta-i luptã grea, Sã aibã tot pe neluptat cei lasi at vrea."
On the other hand, we knew our ancestors, Dacians, were good fighters. As well as the Roman legions, they had much physical activity.
Many Dacians were enrolled in the Roman legions, or were forced to enrol, after the death of Decebal (he wasn't depressed, but only aware of his future "possibilities", "chances", and took the chance to die as a free King).
Today many young Romanian males enrol in the "Légion etrangère". This is hard to succeed, but if one is successful they can learn many useful things. Every "legionnaire" can relate on his training and his fellows, as the "Seals" in American army.
In the Spartan army, the shield was very important, not only to protect oneself, but especially to protect one's fellows fighters.
"Each one for himself and God for all" is the nowadays Motto. (The 3 Musketeers were merely saying one for all and all for one, but this is what it was).
However, the strength from each of us can help the collective! A Romanian say is: "Omul sfinteste locul". We must remember it!
"Ubi bene ibi Patria!" But "Fie pâinea cât de rea, tot mai bunã-i când o stiu din tzara mea".
Wherever we are living, we always should consider to make proud our parents and ancestors.
Respecting ourselves, doing the best possible in our workplace and life, will force the respect of others.
I know what you'll answer: "westerners are trying and succeeding to exploit us. Yes. I live this every day. But I'll never forget where I am from, respect the laws and try to do the best, even if it really hurts. And always saying proudly that I am from my country, but living among a "sneaky", "unfriendly" population. The entering the francofolie and eurounion made people run away, because "the power" was "obliged" to "sold" everybody's job for nothing. Don't sold your soul in addition to that, like Faust!
"Every country has the history it deserves" one said (don't remember who!). Don't blame the Russians, every country in Europe had "the chance" to confront with its powerful or less powerful neighbours! But many, working hard, overcome the difficulties and become successful. Perhaps their kings were less selfish and more trustworthy. Some become powerful by being sneaky, I am thinking about some still powerful colonial countries (guess which are they?).
"Fortuna audaciis adjuvant!" (the chance is helping the brave ones!)
Physical activity and knowing oneself is the best way to cope with the difficult moments in life! Shaolin philosophy is right.
You are so wise, Shifu!
Whether I agree or disagree with your essay, I truly do appreciate your thoughts, as they are a window to the world 🌎. Learning about history IS very important. When the populous does hold some power, this knowledge is vital; it helps one or society not to repeat the same mistake. Grimes stated, "Don't kill those you hate; build up what you love!" I agree with her. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, & have a great day!
If you are unsure who to trust in these
confusing times:
Trust the courageous ones.
Truth requires courage.
Courage requires fortitude.
Truth requires integrity.
Cowards tell lies.
Cowards support liars.
Telling a lie is easy.
Believing a lie is easy.
Being compliant is easy.
Staying silent is easy.
Trusting without thinking is easy.
Thinking for yourself is hard.
Standing up for what is right is hard.
Being real & authentic is hard.
In times like these it takes all the courage in
the world to question the status quo
and to speak up and tell the Truth.
Trust the courageous.
The world needs this man. Thank you shi heng yi for your wisdom. I get fired up everytime I hear him speak about things. Society is weak. 100% I agree. The take away, get physical, move your body, puts you in tune with yourself, relieves tension in the body (movement does), so many benefits. Then I think about where all this is coming from, how old is the shaolin temple? These teachings are not new, they are old but they are the way. There may be different ways to achieve the same discipline in different cultures yes, results are the same. Great video again.
It's nice to see his personality in this talk. And what he is saying makes perfect sense.
Thanks master for you to got given multi talent technic and motivations⛩️☸️🙏🏻
Shaolin n Samurai r not just ways of self defence but its very rich n complete system of values, principle, deep thinking, nobelity n philosofy of life, in addition to body-mind- soul, long complex training.
Love Master Shi Heng Yi! Wise beyond his years and so good at teaching and helping me understand. And let’s not forget about that sense of humor ! 😍🙏🏼
What we just saw is someone demonstrating what he can, what he has, and what he will go through.
I saw a glimpse of darkness in him that I would love to see more of.. when he said 'this society is too weak' 13:35
I saw that too. I do think it's because he knows he too is weak because he is human and therefore needs continual practice to overcome.
We as humans tend to project our insecurities. Projection can also stem from ones truth. That's just my opinion though.
Choose your destiny.. flawless... victory.
He is so right ❣️ We are too used to our comfort. I can’t imagine how the people of earlier times could bear the harsh conditions and heavy labor. When I was 18, my 80 year old grandmother was literally “stronger” than me.
In older times, people used to wrap their broken arms and continue working in the field.
Now, even a splinter is difficult to tolerate for many us.
Thankyou for you and your sharing of practice.💜
Thank you, this is very helpful for my journey! 🙏

Hello master, thanks for sharing your ideas about some missing links like CARE , everything turn important if we care. Our body needs physical exercise. We can link this to the many problems in our teenagers, who are lacking of physical exercise. Let’s help them to get rid of the the problematic of depression doing more physical exercise . Thank you.
ShiFu Hengyi's virtue teachings and his wonderful performances, in order to encourage the public to bring physical activities instead of talking. Create our good lifestyles and affect to our surroundings. No conflicts, peace, unite and bring to the Harmany. With greatest respect to him, he is blessed with everything 🐉💪🙏
Physicality is important but it's not the only factor for psychological health or total wellbeing. You can have a very physical life or job but still be suffering if the physical activity isn't meaningful, and/or not gainful for your prosperity or sense of stability. Lots of manual laborers suffer because the labor is repetitive and undervalued -- and therefore underpaid compared to the basic cost of living in a consumer culture. So what he's saying here is important and necessary, but not sufficient to cure what is ailing people and society. What I value about Shaolin & other martial traditions is that they train mind, body, emotions, and ethics all at the same time; and that's what the the world really needs.
Don't give to receive ❤
You are the best speaker and master. Ich will dich, Shifu!
