Buddha Kung Fu 10-Stripe Program

  2008 is the launch of BUDDHA KUNG FU schools in Los Angeles, California, by Buddha Zhen.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Tujunga, California – May 5, 2008 - BUDDHA KUNG FU is a 10-stripe program with no colored belts or sashes.

"It's fun explaining how our school works," anxiously states Buddha Zhen. "People will ask me, "Are you a white belt?," and then I get to show them my sash and explain that in Buddhism, we teach that you are born pure, with Buddha Nature, so you start as a White Belt. Most of these blues stripes on my sash represent Kung Fu weapons you have to learn. So by the time you get to the top of this belt stripe ladder, you will be a Kung Fu Master who knows sword, spear, Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and Shaolin Zen Buddhism."

To learn more about Buddha Kung Fu belt ranking, order your BUDDHA KUNG FU STUDENT MANUAL. Even if you are not a student, we hope this book will inspire you, enlighten you, and motivate you to improve your life.

"We still maintain and will continue to use the same colored belt rank systems of Shaolin Chi Mantis and Tai Chi Youth," explains Buddha Zhen. "Only in the Buddha Kung Fu school are we eliminating the colored belt rank system. I feel good about this new system. Buddhism teaches that we are all born pure-- or white. And in Buddhism we are striving to become Buddhas, which I picture again as, white, so from white to white you just climb up this little blue ladder," Buddha Zhen demonstrates by holding out his white cotton sash with 10 royal blue 1/2" stripes on it.

March 1992 Sifu Richard O'Connor teaches at Decker Lake Prison. First Kung Fu school. Shaolin Chi Mantis
March 6, 1996 Master Zhen creates TAI CHI YOUTH nonprofit charity organization for troubled youth. Tai Chi Youth

Podcast 12
of the Zen Buddhist Podcast
hosted by Master Zhen
of the shaolinZEN.org Cybertemple.

"Zen Mind"

Master Zhen simplifies his explanation that the Zen Mind is whatever colors your perspective. Then he complicates it by stating that there are infinite zen minds...

Another controversial concept of Master Zhen is exposed, that women have, "...the antithesis" of the hierarchical mind of men. Continuing to explain how a mother is the opposite of a samurai man, Master Zhen demands that each person determine what and who their Zen mind is.

BUDDHISM DHARMA FOR TODAY:

"The Female Zen Mind Is Different From The Male Zen Mind"

Master Zhen states that women will priortize their newer born over the oldest of their children.

About Buddha Zhen
Zhen Shen-Lang "Truth Spirit-Wolf" or Spirit Wolf of Truth (The Chinese always put last name first.)
Buddha Zhen was recognized for his teaching skills while an Advanced Student of Tai Mantis Federation in early 1980s. However, Buddha Zhen, then known as Richard O'Connor, even passed up opportunities to perform with David Carradine, only considering his Shaolin Kung Fu to be a hobby. After moving to Utah in 1991, unable to find work in the record business or movie business, Kung Fu and Tai Chi became the only way for Buddha Zhen to support himself in Utah while being a Mr. Mom to two kids. Shaolin Chi Mantis was founded in 1992 and in 1996 Master Zhen created the Tai Chi Youth nonprofit 501(c)(3) charity organization for troubled youth. Buddha Zhen founded the Buddha Kung Fu school in 2008 which includes the Buddha Tai Chi, Shaolin Kids , and 12 Step 12 Week Kung Fu Bootcamp programs.
