006-Zen Podcast of Buddha Zhen: What is Evil‪?‬ Zen Podcast of Buddha Zhen

    • Buddhism

Buddha Zhen has been teaching Shaolin Zen Buddhism since 1984.  This became a business in 1992 when he was hired by the Governor of Utah to teach in a maximum security prison.  During this time he wrote the book, Tai Chi Beginner, which he uses as the first semester book in all three of his Kung Fu schools:


Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Kung Fu & Taoist Tai Chi Chuan
Buddha Kung Fu
Tai Chi Youth nonprofit

Tai Chi Beginner is a 16-chapter book used to teach the 16-sections of the Yang Tai Chi Chuan Short Form of Shaolin Chi Mantis.  Buddha Zhen tried teaching a couple years in a YMCA without using this book and realized that students learned several times faster and better when he was given permission to make it a book to be read in every YMCA class.  Without students reading this Tai Chi Beginner book students did not progress in either Shaolin Kung Fu or Tai Chi Chuan even half as much.  The class readings of this book made noticeable improvements in the youth classes also, just as the students in his prison programs improved more than any other prison rehabilitation program.

Buddha Zhen was teaching as an unpaid volunteer for months in that first maximum security prison.  After the students began improving faster than any other inmates in their class grades and aptitude tests, the staff of the prison petitioned the governor to start paying Buddha Zhen.  Over the next seven years we were given updates on those inmate students who never returned except a couple which = 20% recidivism instead of 80% returning inmates who did not take the Tai Chi Chuan Beginner Program course of Shaolin Chi Mantis.

The song "Inner Will" is from the Tai Chi Magic 1 album by Buddha Zhen, available at iTunes, Amazon.com...
