Kung Fu Cowboy is a Chinese Kung Fu Dragon

The Lion Dances are over. Despite all the money they made, Rev. Steve decided they are not going to remodel their home and don't need Coyote for any more Chinese New Year performances. "It's not my house," he explained to Coyote. "She didn't realize how expensive it would be to buy the materials to remodel the bedrooms."

This came as a surprise to Coyote, who'd been assured he could live there in 2012, without any requirements, until he'd founded his own Kung Fu school.

Unfortunately, Coyote had been devoting his time to the Lion Dances, of which none of the performers ever get paid. So he hadn't been looking for other ways to make money or establish his own Kung Fu career yet.

With a 30-day eviction notice to move out of the upstairs bedroom of Rev. Baugh's wife, Coyote found a temporary employment service. Coyote would dress in black suit, black shirt, black tie, black socks, and black dress shoes to usher politicians and business representatives into conference rooms.

"Sometimes this meant checking their IDs," explained Coyote. "One job was really high security. We couldn't even allow the press into most of the meetings. They tried hard to sneak past us. Sometimes we had to verify their IDs by scanning them and viewing their passports and pictures."

During this time Coyote also applied to Rhino Staging in Las Vegas. The receptionist Dannelle, was very friendly and helpful. As Coyote walked out of the office she ran down the hallway and exclaimed, "Look at this resume!" referring to Coyote's 8x10 glossy with his Hollywood "Movie and Commercial Resume" printed on the back.

19 Books Reformatted into Ebooks

What does a Coyote do while stranded in Las Vegas, without friends, without a band, without any students, and without any family?

Write books.

17 of these books were already written and edited in 2011 for release as PDF books by Shaolin Communications.

Coyote discovered that a Macintosh program called OpenOffice.org would enable him to create Word documents in the ".doc" format. This had impeded Coyote's editing his books into ebooks--until now.

With each available hour of the day, Coyote hammered the keys of his G3 laptop to publish his books on Amazon.com
Richard Del Connor author page
Buddha Zhen author page
The Hippy Coyote author page

This led Coyote to discover an ebook distributor, smashwords.com, that provided an easy marketing flow to Apple's ibooks and the Barnes & Noble "nook" format.

Working 12-hour days, Shaolin Communications founder-publisher-editor Richard Del Connor (The Hippy Coyote) reformatted all 17 books and wrote a couple new ones and completed the 4-year 4-book series Human Values for Success in Family and Business by Buddha Zhen. All books were barely completed in time for Coyote to leave Sifu Steve's house and move in with a fellow mason of the Daylite 44 Mason lodge.

-- BUDDHISM NEWS: The Path of Buddha --

Human Values for Success in Family and Business

A book to change the world?

A book to improve the world?

A book to improve the lives of all who read it?

This is that book. Human Values for Success in Family and Business is the only book of its kind.

Human Values for Success in Family and Business is a 4-book series that relies on the student to complete the previous book before advancing to the next one of the series.

"There was so much valuable information and so many lessons that I had to break it up into a 4-year program," pants Buddha Zhen to some students of the Las Vegas Lohan Kung Fu school he is talking to while practicing his own Buddha Kung Fu curriculum. "I also coordinated the traditional wisdoms of Confucius with each week's Kung Fu and Tai Chi lessons of the Tai Chi Youth and Buddha Kung Fu curriculums that I teach."

Confucius ended up being the dominant flavor of this spiritual and intellectual book series. "I designed the book to teach all the best wisdoms of the ancient past regarding family structure, political behavior, and business operation. Nothing has changed in two thousand years. A family still operates best with a mother and a father. Businesses still operate best when the employees obey orders. Also, a government doesn't die of corruption when the politicians have noble aspirations. I wrote this book to achieve all that," Coyote proudly states.

The first book of the 4-year series will be available this year. Since we are new to this ebook publishing format we are striving to get each of Coyote's 19 books released as ebooks, so that we can begin marketing them in the future.

Shaolin Communications has developed a release schedule for all 19 books, but you can jump the gun and acquire one now. This may also give many of our fans and readers an opportunity to be published in the officially released book when the release date arrives. Let us know if you want to submit a review rave, or have other comments and questions.

- - RICHARD DEL CONNOR NEWS: Masonic Kung Fu and Freemasonry - -

New Secrets Discovered in Masonic Kung Fu Form

The rituals and ceremonies of the Nevada Freemasons are slightly different from the rituals and ceremonies of the California Freemasons.

The Nevada Freemasons have left more of the "Ancient" rituals and symbols in their meetings and ceremonies. This was enlightening for Richard Del Connor who realized that some of the symbolisms and ceremonial words of the Ancient Masons were symbolisms included in the "Masonic Kung Fu" form. This filled up some gaps in the movements that Richard realized were intended to represent more symbolic tools and convey more ethical principles than he realized so far.

Wow!

Since the "Masonic Kung Fu" form was probably based upon a European Freemason's teachings during the 1930s, it makes sense that these "Ancient Masonic" symbolisms were secretly encoded into this martial arts dance.
