Set. /e-Book, pdf, 4.99 MB, 82 pp./
The history of the creation of this book goes back to Master Fan Xu Dong (life time: 1841
– 1925, according to another data - 1936). At the turn the 19-th and 20-th century Fan Xu Dong several times visited
Shaolin Temple where he studied heritage of the monastery. That’s what Master Jon Funk writes about it: “Fan made
several trips to the Shaolin temple and spent time there researching with the monks. From these trips to the Shaolin temple,
as well as his other work with the Seven Star Praying Mantis system, he wrote five volumes titled "The Shaolin Authentic".
These handwritten manuals contained concepts on fighting skills, medical information and historical aspects of kung fu. Contained
in one of these five volumes is the eighteen exercises of the LUOHAN GONG complete with replicas of the original drawings
of the Shaolin monks demonstrating the postures of each exercise.” These five books were later hand copied in Hong Kong
by shifu Huang Han Xun. The original illustrations and calligraphy on LUOHAN GONG by shifu Fan Xu Dong was reproduced in shifu
Huang's book in which he added photographs to depict the movements.

Jin Yi Ming. LIAN GONG MI JUE: Secret Methods of Acquiring External and Internal Mastery. Shanghai, 1930 /e-Book
in Adobe pdf, 7.78 MB, 160 pp./ An old proverb says: “If you exercise only the technique (style) but ignore
special training you will be a nobody till your old days.” “Special training” implies particular exercises
for developing both WAI ZHUANG – “the External Power” and NEI ZHUANG – “the Internal Power”.
Those exercises (training procedures) are collected under a common title – LIAN GONG, literally “Exercising to
Acquire Mastery”. In his preface the author writes: “...It is not an idle talk that “Strength can not overcome
the Pugilistic Art (Quan Shu), the Pugilistic Art can not overcome Internal Mastery (Gong Fu)”. The people think that
it is enough to exercise the Pugilistic Art (Quan Shu) but few know that the Pugilistic Art can not withstand the Internal
Mastery (Gong Fu) as the Pugilistic Art is sprouts of Gong Fu and Gong Fu itself is the base and root of the Pugilistic Art.
There are people who exercise only Gong Fu and do not exercise Quan Shu. But nobody heard that Quan Shu can be exercised without
exercising Gong Fu. Such “mastery” is like flying fluff or floating duckweed - too weak base. It is necessary
to exercise both Gong Fu and Quan Shu, only in that case there will be a strong base and excellent Mastery.” The first
part of the book presents exercises which belong to the section “External exercising” (WAI GONG) aimed at the
development of “the External Power” (WAI ZHUANG). It includes exercises for the development of “hardness”
(YING GONG), “lightness” (QING GONG) and “flexibility” (ROU GONG). The second part of the book deals
with the development of “the Internal Power” (NEI ZHUANG): the description of massage according to the method
NEI ZHUANG XING GONG, the method “Rinsing marrow” XI SUI, some formulae of drugs to increase the level of the
“internal power” are given. Undoubtedly, the book will be useful for serious practitioners of traditional styles
of Chinese Martial Arts who are eager to reach genuine mastery.

Jin Jing Zhong. Authentic Shaolin Heritage: Training Methods of 72 Arts of Shaolin. Tanjin, 1934 /e-Book in Adobe
pdf, 8.30 MB, 278 pp./
The book "Training Methods of 72 Arts of Shaolin" by Jin Jing Zhong is devoted to the most enigmatic and little-known aspect
of training of Shaolin monks. The book was written in 1934 with blessing and direct participation of the Head of the Shaolin
Monastery Reverend Miao Xing nicknamed "The Golden Arhat", one of the best Shaolin fighters of all times. Training methods
described in the book allow to develop supernatural abilities, far beyond abilities of an ordinary man. In the course of many
centuries the methods were the base and core of Shaolin combat training, the most secret part carefully hidden from strangers.
However, after a huge fire in 1928 that burnt down Shaolin and a greater part of its records the situation changed. An acute
problem of preserving the Shaolin heritage for future generations arose. Most probably, it was the principle reason which
made Miao Xing reveal one of the main secrets of Shaolin to the public. The book presents full description of exercises and
requirements to their execution, as well as the fundamentals of training theory of 72 Shaolin Arts.
