Kungfu still conceals many mysteries and secrets that will never be openly shared with anyone. But how can this be? Aren’t hundreds of books published today, aren’t educational videos sold, aren’t mass wushu competitions held, aren’t there thousands of wushu (kungfu) clubs around the globe? But the question is: is this true kungfu? Isn't this just a way of hiding real secrets that are still not accessible to anyone except the followers of the true tradition? And much has been done specifically to present wushu only as a sport, as gymnastics or as a health complex. True kungfu is not just a martial art, it is a complex complex of human education, which, in addition to effective martial practice, includes the skills of psychoregulation and meditation, managing one’s own internal energy, and healing methods and purification of consciousness. And only a few people in the world are initiated into it. This is a fascinating story about masters and hundreds of different schools, the history of the development of martial skill and ways to preserve it. This is a story about amazing training methods, about spiritual traditions, about Taoist magicians and Buddhist monks who were followers of martial arts. Only an initiate can gain true knowledge of Chinese kungfu. And this book is not a revelation of true secrets, it is a story about the space where these secrets can be discovered.
