What can the experience of ancient Vietnamese offer to the residents of a modern metropolis? How was the transfer of the martial style from Vietnamese masters to modern Russia made possible? Is it possible to combine the absolute tranquility of...
Zen meditation with the astonishing speed of movements and strikes delivered by Tam Kui fighters? The attentive reader will get answers to all questions from the horse's mouth. The book discusses the techniques, origins, and philosophy of the Vietnamese martial art Tam Kui Khi-kong. It is addressed to a wide audience interested in Eastern martial arts, Eastern culture, and Zen Buddhism philosophy.
In the title "The Teaching of Emptiness," the essence of the martial art based on the principles of Zen is precisely expressed. From a colorful mixture of aphorisms, parables, memories of the master, and descriptions of key techniques, a vivid image of the school of martial arts emerges as a unique tradition of nurturing body and spirit. The narrative is held together by the image of the author - master and teacher of Tam Kui: even where the figure of the narrator remains outside the text, his spirit and desire to convey the true philosophy of the Tam Kui School are invariably present.
