The Sea Lantern Venerable Master over seventy years old can two-finger Zen upside down, a few years after the silence, the disciple said what the truth?

With the maturity of network technology and the emergence of various online platforms, people are no longer confined to traditional jobs, and many young people have joined the ranks of the "netroots". I have to say that the current social atmosphere is gradually shifting to a pompous and fast-paced one. A lot of things get hot for no apparent reason, but they don't last long and are soon drowned out by other things. After all, it's just a flash in the pan.

Nowadays, everyone focuses more on the impact on sight and sound, going for the superficial, how to attract attention quickly, etc., without realizing that enriching oneself is the best way to go. Prior to this, a video of a 70-something year old man doing a handstand with two fingers caught the attention of many people, who were amazed by what he did, but were also questioned.

The hero in the video was Shaolin Temple's Venerable Master Hai Deng. He was in his 70s at the time, but it was impressive that he still managed to pull off such a difficult maneuver. Is Shaolin kung fu really that good?

While most people have never been to a Shaolin temple or seen their kung fu in person. But we see a lot of martial arts dramas almost all have the Shaolin Temple pictured, in everyone's impression, Shaolin monks will not only recite the scriptures, and every special skills, such as the Shaolin Dragon Control, the Evil Stick and so on seventy-two special skills, and even the most magical Yi Jin Jing. Looking back, when I saw these names, I admired Shaolin Kungfu. Later, there were all kinds of movies and TV dramas about Shaolin Kung Fu, which made people believe that Shaolin Temple really had divine power.

The "Sea Lantern Master" we just mentioned was born in Jiangyou City, Sichuan Province, in 1902. At that time, China was in the midst of war, and many people had lost their homes. Before he became a monk, he was called Fan Wu Disease, probably because his parents gave him that name in the hope that he would live a healthy life in the turbulent times.

However, Fan Wou Disease has not seen his parents since he was born and lives with his uncle, from whom he occasionally learns martial arts. On the one hand, it can strengthen and forge the body; on the other hand, they can protect themselves in dangerous situations. By chance, Fan Wubing met a Shaolin monk. Having practiced martial arts since he was young, he naturally yearned for the legendary Shaolin very much. Therefore, Fan Wubing resolutely chose to follow the Shaolin monk and become a monk.

After entering the Shaolin Monastery, he was very dedicated to martial arts and soon learned many martial arts skills, including sword, spear and stick. However, when it comes to Master Hayden's unique learning, it doesn't get any better than Two Finger Zen. As the name suggests, Two Finger Zen means supporting the weight of the body with the strength of two fingers. We all know that it's hard for the average person to do push-ups on a regular basis, let alone with just two fingers. You have to be trained to do it, but that's the limit. Master Hayden, on the other hand, can actually do a handstand with just two fingers, so maybe that's the pinnacle of martial arts.

It is understood that Master Hayden took a great deal of effort and a long time to master this skill. 1979, Master Hayden was invited to participate in the movie "Sichuan Interest Record", where he performed "Zen two fingers", "juvenile skills "and other stunts, which became popular nationwide.

But there were many who doubted that someone so old could accomplish such a feat. Young Master Hayden couldn't accomplish it at a young age, let alone in his seventies. Also, the video only shows Master Hayden's body, not the feet. So, all things considered, it was most likely a hoax.

As expected, after Master Hayden's death, his disciple told the truth. At the time the video was taken, Master Hayden's feet were tied with ropes, and he wasn't allowed to perform such an action.

At first, they did this because Hayden was too old to do these difficult moves, but for the sake of publicity, he had to hang his feet from the window with a rope in the hope that more young people would continue to practice two-finger zen.

After the incident was reported, netizens had different opinions. Some thought it was understandable that Hayden did it to inherit his unique skill. But some netizens couldn't understand it, and they thought they were deliberately deceiving people to raise their popularity so that they could make more money when they performed outdoors. However, regardless of the facts, Master Hayden has passed away and it is difficult to continue our research. More importantly, I want everyone to keep their hearts in this fast-paced society.
