You truly are an Inspiration Master Shi Heng Yi. You're helping and guiding so many people in so many ways...
I started learning Qi Gong through youtube videos about 7 years ago... but I found the Shaolin Temple Europe channel only a few months ago and now you're really bringing the whole thing to the next level. You've just clarified so much confusion! It's absolutely amazing! I am healing myself from IBS and am taking this opportunity (the confinement) to focus entirely inwardly. I'm focusing mainly on Shamatha (Mindfulness of breathing), the Four Immeasurables, Healing/Positive Visualization and QiGong. Every day, from morning to evening, like a retreat. Living as simply as possible and avoiding distractions. I'm finding so much Joy in doing this and Living this way... it sometimes feels as if all the suffering I went through had been there to guide me to this point, to the peace of mind and way of life I had always been looking for. Sometimes I really wonder, once healed, if I may even give up everything to follow a path similar to yours, and to become a peaceful and awesome (wise and kind) human being too... The answer will come with practice... Thank you infinitely.

just your words feel like the sun on the water for me

Dear Master watching your videos and thinking of your teachings in difficult moments is helping me overcome my addiction. I wish I could stay at your temple for that year, but I have to keep paying bills at home. For now I will start training myself with your videos thank you so much

Everyday i prey for god bless this master, the sensei that showed me a new path and the light on my path. I simple cant tell how great you transformed my life.
I was angry, felt bad and had being caged on an bad vicious practice everyday. I asked for help to god and he showed me your video, i also loved kung fu and decided start. Your practice of qi gong showed me light, saved me from much pain on back and i asked myself days later if it was good or i did not need anymore, i them climbed stairs and on final of that day i was so bad like never before, i decided later night practice again and it healed my back pain so much that i could sleep like god had touched me. After 2 months training i changed much but it wasnt enought, i keept training but had that vicious again, so one day i asked help for god and on next day i was practicing and keep thinking " i need to learn more, i need the theory" suddenly on my mind i thinked about search for budha, i started it after 3 months on general of training, im almost 4 months training and with budha lessons, your training i archieved a new level of comphreension, i archieved answers like why i needed to do the meditation, what it gives me, i archieved so many answers and words that helped me in many situations of my life nowadays like never before i had, i wanted to expand so im now reading book of big sages like Sun tzu, Miyamoto musashi (5 rings), chakra book, complete void(daoism), and thanks to that im reaching new knowledge, i am learning about yoga and chakra. Honestly i can only thank you so much for all this that i pray for god bless you, budha, everyone who translated those books and all spirits that help me.
I am from spiritism and i never read much but now after shaolin qi gong i can go further and i always will have on my heart both budhism, qigong and spiritsm.
Today im free from that vicious cage, i have time to learn, to be with my family, to organize my cloths, im reaching happyness like never before. Thank you. It is real and just need everyone do a simple thing: start and go all the way

Prático Tchi - Kung, á 25 anos aqui no Brasil, é sem sombra de dúvida, ☝uma técnica para eliminar todas nossas dores, físicas , mentais e espirituais, que adquirimos com o passar do tempo . Hoje com meus 51 anos de idade , vejo os sinais em todo meu corpo dessa prática milenar chinesa . Só posso agradecer á todos os mestres que cruzei em minha vida . E em breve irei á para um retiro .
Serenidade a todos .
