Shaolin Life
Shaolin teaches us how to lead our lives: always at ease and ever-present.
And how to lead our lives single-mindedly and unconfused through daily practice of training our body and quieting our mind. - Master Shi Guo Song A 501c(3) religious non-profit that follows the Buddhist Ch'an (Zen) tradition of internal and external practice and development.

As I go to my next level I reflect on my companions, training family and teachers who have shaped my temple. Gratitude!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Ideally being in gratitude for our blessings should be daily,
But taking the time to celebrate with our close ones and family is as equally important. Enjoy this day everyone.
