Spontaneous Beauty

Yesterday, I was taking the train to go to school. I encounter a woman who was standing and use the poles to support herself. I would not say that she is so called very attractive. Yes she was pretty cute but according to society, someone who is attractive should be skinny with big breast and big butt. She does not meet these criteria. Furthermore, she was not wearing extravagant clothes. However, I saw a great beauty in her that my mind could not pinpoint at. When she got to sit with me, I told her: "You are beautiful, that's all I want to say to you." Now, I know some people might say: "Are you in love with her?" I am in the sense of seeing her beauty as is but as far as being in a relationship with her, no. Maybe that's what she was thinking when she heard me say something like that. She smiled at first but I notice the discomfort afterwards. My mind kept on wondering: "what's the matter with you? Are you crazy? What is so special about her?" That is the problem of the mind. It is a social phenomenon: it sees beauty only in the body but it is incapable of seeing the beauty as it is; therefore it needs to be dropped otherwise the truth will never come out. 
Later on, when I got to school I could never spot that beauty again. I saw many hot girls walking by but I could not spot any beauty unfortunately. To me, they were all wearing a mask therefore they lack realness. All I see is ugliness in them. Whatever is not real is ugly. I met some women as beautiful as the woman on the train but some of them do not live in New York. Maybe the woman I want to be with is a woman with a spontaneous beauty. Not a beauty hiding behind the mask of society. I ain't got time for these masked women.

Kick-Ass 2 is Worst than MMA!

I know this is 2 am but I intend to write about this movie anyway. I feel like I needed to express what I feel about the movie Kick-Ass 2. I watched this movie on Friday with one of my female friends at AMC in Maryland. I am actually in Maryland right now until tomorrow. What we have seen in this movie is some horrible shit! It was filled with blood and violence. The movie is such a collection of killing. Every scene there is blood and killing. They showed how someone is being stabbed in the throat, how police officers are being killed by an extremely muscular woman... I can go on and on about this. It is that horrible. There is no meaning behind the movie whatsoever. Not only it is violent, it is very racist too! It's offensive to almost every minority group including the Asians and the Blacks. MMA was included in the film too. When the villain wanted to know how to fight, he trained with an MMA fighter. Of course, they had to include MMA. They had to include this cage fighting crap so they could piss me off even more! Oh that's not all. There is some nudity in the movie too but just one scene showing two naked women in the pool.
Anyway, for those of you who are still interested in this movie, if you think you can handle extreme violence then go ahead, I don't care. However, I would not recommend you to watch a movie like that one. It is just not healthy for your mind. It's not even healthy for adult, how could Hollywood think that the movie would be for the kids? Hollywood need to rethink their movies completely in my opinion. But unfortunately, they are not going to change the way the movies are made. Why? If they change the movies, they would not generate income. So the best way to respond to a movie like this is to never watch it again. Yes I said it now: I do not promote MMA; however, I do not promote Kick-Ass 2. I would discourage the people to watch this movie even more. The West is violent enough already; therefore, it needs something more peaceful.

Beware The Rectangles

This is probably my favorite off-the-cuff lecture I've ever delivered/ recorded. The whole thing, with slide show, was conceptualized, given visuals, and recorded in a single evening...

No Power


NO POWER

I can’t get myself to be in POWER
I’m not a man of this WORLD
I just wanted to be with my GIRL
But the society is against LOVE
Everybody’s fighting to get ABOVE
There’s something wrong with the MASSES
I see it clearly, others need to get some GLASSES
I can’t be all about the MONEY
But at the same time I can’t be played for a DUMMY
The world we live in is very DIRTY
Females try to get power over you by acting FLIRTY
People fighting over CASH
Millionaires building up their STASH
If you don’t manage it right it’s gone in a FLASH
I try my best to live a simple LIFE
Just me my kids and my WIFE
But I still gotta play this dirty GAME
I’m being forced to build my NAME
With that comes the downfalls of FAME
Expressing the truth is my primary AIM
Destroying all fantasies, now I’m the one to BLAME
I’m not looking to be the BEST
To me this is not even a game of CHESS
I’m ready to let it GO
I’ll announce to the world that I don’t even KNOW
I’m just a real human being that’s going with the FLOW

Downfalls of Fame


DOWNFALLS OF FAME        

The more fame that you have, the more pressure there is from the society around you to mold and shape you into their expectations.  It is a sad reality.  It is very difficult to be a real human being, but it is even more difficult to be a real human being when you are famous.  People will literally pay you to be false.  People will pay you to lie and people will punish you if you speak the truth. 

Socrates was speaking the truth, the people said, if you keep speaking, we will kill you.  Socrates did not care; he kept speaking the truth until they took his life away.

In this society, we are paid money in order to be false.  We are not accepted the way that we are.  The employer will not hire us if we do not shave.  The employer will not hire us if we have tattoos that he does not like.  The employer will not hire us if we do not follow the company dress code.  We must mold and shape ourselves to meet with the employer’s expectations; otherwise we will be fired and be placed out of work.  When we are placed out of work, we have no money for food or shelter, now we are placed in a position of poverty because we refused to conform. 

If we do not conform to our employer, then we must conform to the expectations of our parents or whomever is the head of our household.  It seems that no matter what the case may be, we must conform to someone.  Even if we are self-employed, we are placed in a position where we must conform to the needs and expectations of our customers, because without customers, we will not make money, without money, we will once again fall into poverty. 

Out of all this time we spend working 40+ hours in one week, when do we actually have time to let our guards down and just be ourselves?  We wish to express ourselves and be ourselves on FaceBook to connect with old friends, but then we say something wrong and our employer finds out and ends up firing us for statements that were made in social media that did not positively represent the company of which we worked for. 

Everywhere we go, we are being monitored in what we say and do, inside and outside of work to the point where we no longer are living true authentic lives.  We are simply machines designed for profit.  Everywhere we go, there is always someone there waiting to exploit us.  Someone there waiting to profit off of us.  We never receive the opportunity to truly be ourselves, we are endlessly living our lives for other people, and we never live our own lives.  This is the tragedy of life until we finally become awakened.

LEARN ABOUT THIS SO THAT
IT DOES NOT DECIEVE YOU INTO THINKING
THAT WHAT IS HAPPENING IN YOUR BRAIN
IS ALWAYS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN YOUR SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT.
LEARNING IS A NOTHING EXCLUDING PROCESS IN OPERATION
INDEPENDENT OF YOUR PREFERENCES AND COMFORT ZONES.
TO THINK OTHERWISE IS LIKE
1. THE IDIOT WHO "KNOWS" THAT NO TREE HAS FALLEN
JUST BECAUSE HE CAN'T HEAR IT OR
2. NO HUNGER BECAUSE HE'S FED OR
HE KNOWS EVERYTHING BECAUSE
HE'S NOT AWARE OF HIS INSIGNIFICANT SIZE IN THE COSMOS AND

HOW LITTLE YOU KNOW. 

REMEMBER:
BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD.
ADD TO THE LEARNING PROCESS
BY TEACHING YOUR OWN SELF
FROM AS MANY FIELDS OF KNOWLEDGE WITHIN REACH.
DO NOT MAKE EMPTYIING YOUR MIND
YOUR PRIORITY, UNLESS
YOU WANT TO SIT ON YOUR RUMP ALL DAY LONG.
LIFE IS THINKING, DOING, WEAR AND TEAR AND FROM WHICH
DEVELOPMENT OCCURS.
ATROPHY IS GURANTEED WHEN 
1. YOU DISCONNECT FROM
THE DIVERSITY OF LIFE'S RESOURCES
LETS CUT TO THE CHASE- WHEN YOU DO NOTHING TOU GET NOTHING:
NO MAINTENANCE, HOUSE FALLS ON YOU,
CARS BREAK DOWN, MUSCLES SHRINK, BONES BRITTLE, NO ONE CHANGES THE BABIES DIAPERS .....WOE!.....ETC...YOU NAME IT.
YOU MUST EXPERIENCE IRRITATION.

YOU HAVE A GOOD REASON TO EMPTY, DISCONNECT, IT'S ON YOU.
YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THE ATROPHY, THE DETERIORATION, THE DIMINISHING GAINS.

THERE ISN'T A MAN ALIVE WHO CAN CHANGE THE COURSE OF THE LAWS NATURE HAS INSTITUTED INTO THE HUMAN CONDITION.

After having done all this or during doing all this, take some some out too
to empty your mind.....what a lie! Just make sure you get some sleep for that
part of your Brain in need of it. Meanwhile, in your sleep, your Brain is acticely at work for you.
"It is Emptying," begins the Day we Die and that we have no voluntary control over.

8 Chambers of father reality


8 chambers of father reality. 
By: Derek Samaras
  
   Talent; a display of special skill does not signify possession of the thrill, of spiritual capacity. Cleverness is no substitute for tenacity -true character. Few men  ever dare to embrace their full faith, and through this self centered hate we choose to escape, Unreasoned fear;  is the master mind fraud, pushed upon the hungry soul like a vengeful god. Inherent capacities cannot be exceeded; The spirit can't be forced on the minds of weak and fleeted. 
Few mortals ever dare to behold, the  personality established by the absolute bold, creative ministries of nature and grace, most broke souls are truly rich, but they still don't believe when it shines in their face.
Hardships challenge mediocrity but they only stimulate true children of reciprocity.

  Enjoy privilege without abuse, liberty without license, wield power with no self-aggrandizement. these are the marks of a higher man, who truly feels power with his heart not his hand. Effort doesn't always yield real joy, so be intelligent and use what you know now boy for action yields strength!  
Righteousness strikes the blind chords of truth, as the melody vibrates through the hopeful youth, even through the recognition of my strong left arm, realize my punishment can be blessed by my charm.
 Affectation; the ridiculous affirmation of the ignorant appearing wise through the vessel of supplication, the attempt of the weak and barren soul to look rich, this goes against the real power of NOW, silly bitch! .
 The weak indulge in hollow resolutions, as the strong act fearlessly amidst life's translucence. Life  is but a hard day’s work – so do it well. The act is ours; the consequence is omnipotence, for talk without action only yields your impotence. 

 The greatest affliction is to never be afflicted. Mortals get wise when their  life starts trippin.  Life rewards courage when it's tempered by compassion, and expressed with humility, that's how real shit happens.

...So whet the appetite of your people's fight, for light and knowledge of truth; but only give advice when its asked of you.  
For you cannot perceive my spiritual proof until you feel and realize it as your own real truth, and many great truths are only found in adversity, realize the good life celebrates diversity. 
  
 Impatience; a spirit prison; Anger is a poison that we feed to our children.
The angry defense of any proposition, is inversely proportional to the truth that it's grippin. Knowledge is possessed only by real sharing; its safeguarded through wisdom and socialized by caring.
  Progress seeks growth of our individuality; Death seeks perpetuation only in duality. Causality screams like the high pitch beams of crack whores and  slammed doors waking me from dreams, of peaceful solitude,  single mothers think they gotta prove, their weight in gold as lazy fathers play games, shit, they too old, for the highest mission of the soul is immortality so brothers, embrace your reality.

Be confident enough  to let yourself go, cease  being fascinated with the life you know. have the courage to see infinity in man, for its uniqueness that makes us above all family.

Steve Irwin, Rattlesnake Wrangling, And Competition Fighting



In the small city where I live, there is a significant rattlesnake population. I help ensure that these snakes can co-exist with humans by volunteering to be on call to catch any rattler that's found in the suburbs, and release them back to their winter dens in the nearby Oldman River coulee canyons. Every once in a while, like today for instance, a situation arises where the snake is either injured or entangled such that I can't use my clamp-grabber, but have to get hands on. Actually, I almost look forward to these occasions, because they give me a good excuse to handle the rattlers. I have known snakes all my life, and am very comfortable with them, but knowing the danger of rattlesnake bites, I always have to resist the temptation to hold them in my hands as I would any other species. It's a strong temptation for me, not only because handling skin-to-skin gives you the feeling of having a closer connection, but also because there's a thrill and a little ego-pump involved. How many people in the world can handle venomous snakes with confidence? Not many. I don't just want to hold them, I also want to photograph and film it, so that I can show others the rare skill I have



This kind of temptation is not really that unusual in people who work with wild animals. I'm reminded of how much I enjoyed watching Steve Irwin as the Crocodile Hunter, when he was still alive. Irwin was a man I could identify strongly with, both in his love for the animals, and in his hands-on approach. But what happened to him? Ultimately, he met an early death at the tail of a stingray. In one sense, I'm sure he would have rather died this way than in a hospital as an old man. And yet, he's missing being able to be with his children as they grow up and become icons of wildlife conservation in their own right. He's left his wife a widow. Surely the thrill and the ego-boost played into his insistence on getting so physically close to dangerous creatures. Was the trade off worth it?

I was thinking about these things this morning, when it hit me that there may be a commonality between the temptations that people like Steve Irwin and I live with, and those that are guiding competitive fighters. There is danger involved in going into the ring, and facing that danger is no doubt thrilling and ego-enhancing, just like handling a venomous snake or wrestling a crocodile. That thrill can be a kind of demon, totally perverting the purpose of one's practice. In rattlesnake wrangling, yes I do have to handle snakes with my bare hands on occasion, as the need calls for it. But I don't have to give in to the temptation to touch them when the need doesn't call for it. Similarly, in the life of a martial artist, there may be occasions that arrive where one has to test his skills in actual combat, as when someone tries to assault you on the street. But you don't have to go looking for a fight, just so you can get that adrenaline rush and ego boost. Even if you know what you're doing, even though the conditions may seem controlled and the real dangers minimized, a deadly punch can be delivered as quick as a snake bite. And is it ever worth it to tempt that outcome without any call greater than ego enhancement? I don't think it is. The whole purpose of martial arts is health and survival. Throwing one's self in harms way without due cause is against that purpose, and therefore not true martial arts

Techniques Demo

This has been going on in my mind a lot. I always had the idea of making a video about how I perform the techniques. Well here it is. These are the techniques I have learned so far. Shi Zu did not want me to make an instructional video on how to fight. Honestly, I am not interested in doing that either. If I want to teach someone, I better know who I am teaching; otherwise, he or she might get out of my sight! Anyway, feel free to give feedback if you like.

MMA - Makes Me Angry

Earlier today I was speaking with a woman who, because of her boyfriend's involvement with MMA, has an automatically negative view of martial arts. She was telling me that she worries for him, but puts up with it because of the money. Now I asked her a very simple question that she could not answer. The question was this, and mind you I only asked her this because I have been talking to her for some time before hand about the true nature of martial arts as I understand it and how it should be approached physically and philosophically.. but anyway, the question I asked her: Knowing what you know about martial arts as we've discussed and having agreed with me on how it should be, what is the benefit to allowing for MMA to exist as it does to society as a whole? The answer of which she could not say was that it doesn't. By removing each person's dignity and allowing them to become entertainment in this way is no better than the Romans with their colosseum in biblical times. Martial arts as a whole is something to be respected and approached with a cautionary reverence. In its study, you will reach down into the core of yourself and see who you truly are. Once in that state of vulnerability you see just how insignificant you are. It is then that you can begin to be remade by either yourself or God. The bible often speaks of humility as being the goal to strive for. I believe this is right in line with the true martial arts philosophy. It is not glory we should seek fellow todai! It is not our own self-righteousness, honor or praise we should desire for ourselves, but to build each other up in humbleness. It is only then that we can begin to truly understand what we are learning and go beyond it to teach those around us directly through study and indirectly through action.

Bringing Racism Out As A Spectacle

Comedians are very good at bringing racism out and treating it as a spectacle for everyone to examine. Maybe this is what Jackie Chan is trying to do in films like Rush Hour, when he pairs himself with a prototypical obnoxious American. Yeah, it might backfire, and you might have a bunch of idiots afterward repeating the line, "Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth?" But those people were idiot racists to begin with, and they missed the point. The comedy is there to call this racist stuff to our attention, not to reinforce it. I bring this up after watching a Katt Williams show on YouTube this evening. I really laughed at some of this stuff about White people, especially the leash on the kids. This is some racist stuff, but it needs to be brought out for public critique. And the safe way to do that, without really hurting anyone's feelings is to use comedy...


Regarding Verbally Abusive Nut Jobs

Watched Sifu's video this evening, regarding the verbal bully of a woman who tried to cut in line at the store and got checked. Here's proof that verbally off-the-hook freaks come in all shapes and sizes. I think, rather than try to verbally combat these kinds of people, it might just be better to video tape them and humiliate them internationally, lol

Racism Needs to be Stopped

This is me Kang again. This video could be considered a response to what Shi Zu Lee is going through with racism against his race. I have some experiences with racism too but I do not believe it is as bad as Shi Zu's. However, I still want to share my experiences with it too. I also mentioned the music video released by the band Day Above Ground. The song is called Asian Girlz. The title itself already indicate racism. The lyrics are garbage. I am even more disappointed of her to put herself out there like that. Again, that is not what Bruce Lee fought for. He did not fight for the Asian community to be put down at such a low level. I do not believe that.

FMK's Future


This has been on my mind for a very long time. I know the reality is in the present moment; in other words, it is in the now. However, I keep having these visions and I cannot help but expressing it. Do not worry, I am not going to get angry or anything. Although I am not writing for anybody, I personally want to let you know that I am not going to use profanity that much...or maybe not. Hey, if you do not like profanity though, I am probably not going to be your favorite writer. 
Let us get to the vision shall we? Recently, I have visions about each Todai in FMK. I see a great future for them. I see them getting at a very high level in every aspect of their lives. I see female Todais of FMK getting really fit. Trust me: so far, I notice how hard they are working! I barely see ladies working that hard in my life. Last lady I trained only last about two days and she never trained with me anymore.  The men I am watching so far seem to be very disciplined. They are following Shi Zu pretty well and I like that. Congratulations guys. I hope become Sifus someday.
However, I begin to ask myself what if it does not happen? What if I am wrong all along? What if all of them did not survive 2013? What if I do not survive tonight? That is the reason why we all should appreciate the present. I believe every of you guys are trying your hardest now. I am very content with that. If what I envisioned can happen, it will happen. If it did not, then it did not. No big deal. However, I still would encourage everybody in FMK to keep working hard and do the best you can every day.

The Beach is a Workout

Today, I went to the beach with my female cousins. Before we got to the beach, we ate a couple of empanadas. By the time we got there, we tried to go into the water. The water was so cold that I could not even dare to put my fingernails on it. But once the water hit you once, it will be easy to overcome the cold. All you had to do is to just dive in it. We swim for a while. I also discover a way to get your fitness into a higher level. It is very difficult to throw a fast kick while on the water. The kick will be slow if you do not kick often but I believe if you kick with the water more, it will make your kicks more powerful. Another way to step up your cardio is to run on the sand. It will slow your step down. That is what makes it so intense! Working should not always be at the gym.
A workout should be everywhere. We need to start coming out more and enjoy the beauty of nature.

Truly Eastern/Western


Jet Li and Jackie Chan don’t give a fuck about America.  They are fully Chinese, they ate not Chinese/American like Bruce and I.  Bruce had a deep connection with America, he was born in California and lived about half his life being educated in America.  Bruce was truly a Chinese/American that was caught in between two different cultures. 

Jet Li doesn’t give a fuck about America, he knows that they are racist and they don’t don’t give a fuck about him.  He can barely speak English himself.  He knows that America will use him to make money if they can and if they can’t they don’t give a damn about him.  The president of the U.S. asked him to be his bodyguard at one time and Jet Li responded that he would not be bodyguard for one person when he should be protecting and representing the entire population of people in China.  Jet Li’s home is China, not America.  Jet Li would not fight for equality and peace for America, Jet Li would fight for equality and peace for China. 

Jackie Chan is considered one of the most famous in all of China, he is known by everyone there and is loved.  His home is China, his home is not America.  Like Jet Li, he would not fight for equality and peace for America because that is not his home.  He could care less what happens here in America. 

Bruce Lee was completely different, he was truly multi-cultural, Bruce Lee did not have a home.  He was homeless, his home was the world.  He could not choose sides, he saw the beauty of both sides.  The traditional Chinese Wing Chun community tried to make him turn against America but he refused, he actually fought for his right to teach American’s Gung Fu.  Bruce was truly not racist because he did not choose sides, he was both sides.  But Jet and Jackie are not both sides, Jet and Jackie are fully Chinese, they will pick the Chinese over the American any day.  Jet and Jackie would never fight for the right to teach Americans, they would care less about the Americans. 

For me I care about the Americans because I am an American myself, this is where I live.  Racism in America affects me directly because I live here.  It is extremely important for me to put forth effort to create a better America.  As far as what is going on in China, how can I even put forth effort to make a better China when there are already so many problems here in America? 

I cannot completely turn against the Chinese because China is in my blood.   So like Bruce I am caught in between.  I see the beauty of both whereas most will only see the beauty of one side.  It is the gift of circumstances that allow me to see the beauty of both sides.  Because I see the beauty of both sides, it allows me to have a much deeper understanding of myself and society.  One of my major goals is to educate people on this other side, this is what I call Philosia.
