Yes of course. We know that virtually many Chinese martial arts trace their origins to the Shaolin temple. When Buddhism was brought to China, the monks had a difficult time practicing their mediation due to the physical rigors involved. Martial arts began as both a set of exercises to get the monks into shape and to develop their mental focus. And this that point Martial Arts inside Shaolin temple continue to evolve. |
