Description:

Have you watched Hidden Dragon, Crouching Tigers, the Oscar winning action movie? The heroine Zhang Ziyi jumped off the cliffs of --- Wudang Taoist Temple on the Wudang Mountains, central China. National Geographic brings us closer to the Wudang Style of Wushu/Kongfu, another important branch of Chinese Kongfu parallel to Shaolin. The Kongfu actions are similarly breathtaking, but absolutely different from Shaolin!

in taoism, there is philosophyical taoism and religionous taoism. DO a search on Zhang Dao Ling. The west only know about philosophyical tao. There are still mediumships, talismans, chants etc which are part of taoism.

For many Chinese - and also for many Daoist - yellow is a colour associated with the heavens and good luck. So Master Yu's outfit fits with Chinese conceptions of colour-coding.

I mean no insult to the master but, considering Daoist Philosophy, his outfit seems a bit..... well, gawdy and showy. I thought Daoists were all about simplicity. Although I suppose some training is better than none.

I think you could say, that Shi Tai found her way and that Jade Dragon is still looking for hers. It might lead her back to Wudangshan or it might lead her somewhere else. What ever it is, I for my part, wish her a happy life.

on the other hand, 10 year old dragon jade or long yu decided to go home and stay with her mom whom she loves so much despite the fact she was adopted, that is her way/path in life. so the question is that what is your belief, your way, your path or dao in life?

"Practice of Kung Fu is a timeless ritual" I like the quotes from Lao Zi. for 103 year old Shi Tai her path/dao is to stay in Wu Dang. She ran away from a bad marriage. the young boy husband beated her up. She hid under a tree and thought about her path/way/dao in life. She decided for a big love/compassion for others and help others. no red army/PLA coercion may drag her out of her belief either physically or mentally.
