HAPPY NEW YEAR - THE YEAR OF THE RABBIT

 

The Shaolin Temple in China and a few of the monks here at the Shaolin Temple Cultural Center served as consultants to George Lucus in his latest version of Star Wars "The Revenge of the Jedi". They actually taught , trained and choreographed the "light sabres" (stick) fighting scenes as you see in the movie. This excellent documentary beautifully illustrates the life of the Shaolin monks, the mystical spirituality of the Shaolin Temple, the magic of Qi and the theme in the making of the Stars Wars film. Which monk do you spot? Part 1
