Nothing can bring me down now because I practice Shaolin congfu until I die.
Following your teaching makes" do not give up", "do not surrender", no matter the intensity of the practice, and the obstacles that we are living... Keeping the spirit and the mind focused towards our live in the best way that we may do... Sometimes as your cat we play as children, tender, but keeping the warriors model. Lots of love although you may not embrace it 🙏🌈💐🎶🌟
Quel dommage qu'il n'y ai pas une traduction en Français....😓où autre....
Wonderful bhante vadami
Bonjour...tout d'abord, je vous présente tous mes meilleurs voeux de bonne santé pour cette nouvelle année ,qui je l'espère réconciliera les hommes...Je vous remercie infiniment pour votre bienveillante réponse ...et merci beaucoup pour la disponibilité que vous avez pour nous tous qui sommes à la maison......amitiés du Sud de la France...🙏🙏👌👌
Thank you cat for providing us a clear example of keeping focus on the message, despite the cute distractions around us.
The man and the universe around him are synchronized this well.
Same thing i was thinking!
🇧🇷💛💚
I swear he was placed there on purpose lol
truly master🌀
Not only a great message, but the cat brought the message clearly to me. My ears were hearing the Master.... but soon, my eyes were on the cat, my mind followed, and together we heard not the last words of the Master. As I went back to rewatch the last few minutes, I had to laugh... best lesson in focus ever.... thank you.
I hear the mind…..the mind….. the mind….. when I focus on the cat.
Exactly what I experienced! :-)
The cat followed its nature... 😉
@@SpicyMcHaggis, a weak mind. No discipline.
@@derandere4965 Pardon?
I'm former military, and I'll say that this same way of thinking is also instilled in us, just different ways of doing things. starts with the body first, then once you get that under control, get that first level of discipline things are added to you as stressors until eventually nothing bothers you anymore. shi heng yi is the same, just a different culture. It is the same for samurai and for the elite groups in any country, any religion.
Love Shi Heng Yi. That little kitty was precious. He was so gentle with that little one. Always enjoy to listen!
I watched this video more than 20 times b/c of the cute cat 😁 And of course, because of Shifu SHY’s message ❤ What I remember after watching this talk and try to apply it in my daily life is “what giving up first is the mind”, what’s a powerful message. Thank you Shifu ❤
Most adorable cat ever. And a clear and deep message🙏🏻
Wonderfully represented! The cat was a real challenge, but the Master stayed focused!
The cat is a teacher, not a challenge! ;)
@@MushroomMagpie Haha love that. So true and the main thing we all forget
Maybe a cat wasn't such a good idea in the interview, but the surrounding nature is wonderful... we have to concentrate more. Clear reminder! The mind is our ultimate challenge. Have a strong mind with right and considerate decisions.
@@eliskahlavackova7488 The cat chose to be present. And isn't that what we are all aiming at, to be present?
@@MushroomMagpie Oh sure, everything is still presentful like our mind and the cat is really cute, but I have such an opinion, although I'm open-minded in many ways, it should have the same value, even if there was no cat.
“The problem is the mind. You need to learn the mind. You need a strong mind.” Thank you so much for this video!
um... you didn't realize this before?!
@@buxtehude123 What an ignorant comment...none of us did!
“How to stay focused “ (about 5’ ) with that cute cat licking its toes🐾 I couldn’t focus on what master said anymore😅 thank you Shifu for sharing your insights with us🙏🏼
Every lesson is so legendary. Guru cat facilitating was so poetic. Really gave a dynamic teaching.
hahaha. "dynamic". Yes!
Guru is the cats 🐈 name? Lol 😂
The kitty was a pleasant surprise😁
Always glad to see them, cant get enough of 'em.
It looked like a test if we managed to stay focused on Shi Heng Yi, the cat was so adorable. The test of our mind. We failed of course. 👌
not me. I was watching but it was all one thing. that is not failure. it is success if you recognize how he uses his energy to ground the cat down to earth even more. We all are vibrational beings, especially cats. There is more than one lesson here. I enjoyed how he used keeping his energy calm and vibration to calm the feline. Amazing!! A true master!
The cat is like the mind. Master observes its play. Very cool thank you so much
This cat, what a lucky cat ! Handsome Shaolin 🐱💕 Thank you, for sharing, you are right discipline is important, and happiness also like this cat who plays it safe.
I value your teachings a lot, Sifu. I studied Kung Fu for 3 years in my teens, intensively. Now I'm 42 and your teachings, both technical and the insights, are helping me recover from deep depression. I'm pretty much recovered, but I'm more disciplined when I watch your videos, they inspire me. Like Kung Fu in my teens was holy, your videos in the beautiful meadows of the Temple are like, I wish I could go there and be a monk. Maybe some day I will be able to, I really feel I would be happy in that lifestyle. My recovery was by being alone and working out, meditating, reflecting. Thank you for all your work !! I wish happiness to you and those close to you, and all the best for the Temple. Miguel, Portugal.
The cat is so Cute also.
Incredible Wisdom thank You. ❤
It's truth... very. Thank you so much 🙏🪷☯️🪷
So much wisdom and joy in your videos, I'm glad every time your furry friends join you 🧡😄
Great message! Thank you all involved ❤ couldn’t help but laugh at the cat trying to interrupt haha ❤🐈😻
I FEEL, I AM BLESSED, I AM GRATEFUL, I AM THANK FULL, I AM MUCH OBLIGED TO THANK MASTER SHI FOR THIS, thank you, thank you very much
"The problem is the mind" I absolutely agree with you, Master Shi Heng Yi. Thank you!
Proving the distinct difference between being rich and being enriched
Love your cat ... such a cutie pie. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us. Namaste.
Nice information master🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
I have followed these videos and done some easier practises and breathing exercises daily just for a week now but already noticed some difference, im much calmer and focused on my work and in every day life. Im a nurse and wear protective gear and masks all day, I have found that, like you said in video, these breathing exercises really balance out that short of free breath that I have daily because of those masks and everything. Thank you so much for these videos.
Thank you for enduring these demanding circumstances in order to do such an important work. I wish you lots of energy!
@@marwachine2497 Thank you ❤
So beautiful the connection with the cat!
One of my absolute favourite people to listen to be honest
omg this just made my day ! for the teaching , for the Master , for the beautiful back drop and blue sky and that charming charming cat . just Gorgeous ! thank you ! I really want to learn how to cultivate a strong mind .😊🙏🐱💕
I appreciate how his final analysis of “what is the mind” acknowledged different philosophies and teachings, and that it is very personal.
Beautiful! Thank you very much Shi Heng Yi!
Mankind looks up to him
who is thus gifted for disclosures about nature of things and his own nature
That Kitty Cat! So funny!! 😂
He/she is learning very much about focus 🧘♀️ 📿😊
Thank you 🙏
We need to get to know what the mind is...tricky! That cat Is lovely🤩🤩🤩
Yes correct 👍 well said.
Breathing longer/deeper clears the mind. After a Breath session I usually sit for a while and just listen to my normal breathing cycle. Feeling the inner part of me and getting to know that aspect of myself. After every session because I’m out of shape, I feel the weaker parts of my body. Then after a while my mind kicks in and I start to focus on my goals. My thoughts are clearer and I become energized. This is a practice I vow to do daily with hopes of changing my mind and body. Thanks so much and stay safe💃🏽
Just what I needed at just the right time.👍
Love the cat!!! Love this teaching too. Very good!
The beautiful cat was an excellent example of a being that knows peace and is free to play with out the restrictions that man sets upon his own mind 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤
Achieving small goals strengthen the mind ❤
Thank you for this video!🙏🏻❤
What I can say from my experience is...that all fears are presented in mind and all fears lead to fear from death. From neexistence of body. If we accept them and we accept own mortality...we can go through mind easier. I think that experience close to death can human mind clean so extremely well, that if person survive...so everything is like a walking in garden. I realised through experience that whole world including what I call my body is mental projection. Space around me is me, mountains and grass is me, all animals and people are me. Body which carry soul of my personality is small piece of what I can call me. And this "me" presented everwhere like a god or divinty is something eternal what was here before and will be after doesn't matter if body will be destroyed. Mind is often place full of thoughts and movements. But it use us. Exactly through all this Shaolin practice which you mention people can achieve calm mind. I did Yoga and Qi Gong for many years. But last word in achieving something have GOD (power of universe, nature, energy, everyone call it different). Ego can be cultivated but it's still cultivation. But completely it can give away only GODs grace. This power which hold us alive. Which is giving birth and death.
Honestly I am thankful for those ancient teachings and philosophies because it's healing soul. It can take people out of self destruction from drinking, smoking and drugs etc and others addictions including it can repair their relationship to self (anxiety, depressions), it can repair relationships with people around (teaching us compassion, patience, forgiviness, love, understanding).
Thankful that these teachings are going these days between people because it can benefit all of us. ❤🙏🏻
And cat was very funny.😅🙈 They knows what is clarity of moment...
You are truly amazing 👌 Thank you very much dear Master ❤
Thanks for the love🌏
Beautiful sunshine.
The Eastern Philosophy of Buddhism, Hinduism have greatly focused on this core which connects physical and formless
Thank you for this key knowledge to master the mind. 🙏
The kitty really knows where to have fun.😻 Cute!
🔥landed🔥
I am gradually coming to love you Shi Heng Yi.
Actually I'm noticing a lot of this since I started working part-time at a standing/moving job. I was mentally unwell and didn't manage anything when I decided to start. But then I noticed: I didn't stop when my feet were tired. I didn't complain when I was aching or exhausted. I exercised even after long shifts. And I used my free time wisely and carefully. Now that I'm a few months in, my mental health is better than years before, I'm happier, I feel like I can actually control my life and my actions. Thank you for your wisdom🙏🏻
How sweet is the cat at the end...... ❤❤❤
"Minds give up first." So truth.
As per this explanation mind is strength of will.
❤️💐love your teaching
Great massage and what a beautiful video!😊😻🙏❤
Truth 🙏 thank you
Thank you Master
Amazing. Learning with you master. Thank you!!
Love you showlin from India♥️
🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Although the cat attack got me laughing at the end 🤣🤣
Happy new year to the temple ✨✨✨
I’m very grateful that I found this channel. I have unlocked a little bit of myself and that in itself is opening more door ways, some things that are released is in a way peaceful and painful. I appreciate your teaching very much.
🙏 amazing as always!! Thank you
Master I will stand strong. Thanks to. your words, and guidance. I shall practice mentally and physically.💜💜💜
Thanks. It is clear message dan explanation.❤
Thank you for the wisdom
🙏❤lichen Dank so anschaulich und weise erklärt, mit ganz viel Geduld und ❤-blut🙏💖💫👌👏
This is exactly montessori philosophy ( Maria Montessori- AMI) from body to mind. The child trains the movement of the body to enter the realm of the mind and yes the vipassana- the breath from formless to form. So grateful for this affirmation 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for this wisdom Shifu.
Watching video again ,picking up more understanding.🙂
Thank you both for this reminder 🙏😻
As always, thanks so much Shifu for such a clear, simple yet powerful message.
Thank you for this article. I believe the mind and body is like a two-edged sword. Both sharpen each other. I am always encouraged by your words, if not strengthened by them also. I always get clarity when I am listening to you. 🤙
Excellent insight.⚔️
What if your body is "broken" through say spinal / neck injury. Then is it that you draw more strength / power from the mind? x
@@SmileyBlue69 Yes. The mind like Master Sheng in his example regarding exercise/s.. is the first thing that "gives up". With an injury such as you mentioned, would require a homeostasis of both the mind and body.. I do not pretend to know the correct answer/s but I am one to reinforce hope, belief, endurance, and love can overcome obstacles in our way regardless of our circumstances.
Sometimes, the mind is "broken" and the body becomes just a moving shell. It is why I love Master Shengs talks. I understand where I am in life and what I need to do to get more from it. Strengthening the mind can move different types of mountains as in the case of the "broken" body. : )
@@beyourself3711 :-) and thank you ... that makes sense. Wishing I discovered him years ago. Everything about him and his videos are incredible. x
Веселая кошка, которая чистит свою лапу❤
Master Shi few yeras ago i start practice wing chun,and combine 5 steps form from kung fu .I realized that the load was great. I listened to your story about a man climbing a mountain and you opened my eyes. There were problems, there are, and there will be, but I am improving my knowledge, I showed one of the exercises "ba duan jin" to my mother, who is 73 years old, and I see how she exercise and feels after. Thank you for the treasure you own and share with to us🙏
Thank you so much for this master Shi🙏. A great food for thought for the New Year!
Indeed, the Mind is a very powerful thing once you control your thoughts. The body influences the mind, but the mind controls the body. Training your mind is very important to function better. The body helps to control the mind in return through specific exercises like gigong or taichi, which is based on the link that connects the mind to the body... the breath.
🙏thank you Master. Feels like I'm on right path from now on. Time to go...
Danke! Thank you!
I couldn't help but 😍 when I saw the cat, I've developed my own daily routine after watching your practices and I do notice an improvement in my mental focus and discipline, I can hold ma bu for a count of 108 now, pu bu needs a little work 😊 thank you
Thank you for sharing your wisdom 🙏
Blessed , thank you for your teachings. 🙏
Thank you Master🙏🍀
If the mind controls the body controls everything in the universe. The cat always controls her body perfectly!! So amazing creature ❤Thank you Master
Thank you master ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
Dear Master as a yoga teacher and former wushu pratictioner I really appreciate your new contents and your new ways of introducing the most important principals of martial arts these are in fact the foundations of going deeper into the study of martial arts. Without these principles it is not possible to achieve the most important forms of martial arts which is not only the body but the complete connection body-soul and mind also through the learning of breathing techniques. Thank you Master 🙏
🙏Thank you MASTER! ✨ Happy new year! ✨🙏
Thank You 🙏☯️
Love this channel and these videos are really insightful, it makes sense! Can’t wait to start my Qi Gong journey today :D
Thank you. Happy New Year
Cute cat video with wisdom and knowledge.. Thanks RUclips! 🙂

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing all of your thoughts, practices and wisdom, and for helping me find peace in the midst of my daily practices despite the challenges I continue to face as a human being trying to be his absolute best in the world we live in. Thank you.

Great insight thank you 🙏
Mil gracias Shifu.
Спасибо Шифу!)С Новым годом !)
Thank you for your teachings! I appreciate your sharing your knowledge and strengths. ❤
Thank you for this lesson especially about having a "strong mind". ❤️❤️And I agree that this journey in finding what the mind is personal for it depends on purpose and situations at hand.
