YOGA, MARTIAL ARTS & The FORCE  L eporati also highlights the sobering fact that Bodhidharma’s “uniquely yogic approach” and “contribution to Shaolin Temple Boxing” which came to be known as Kung Fu , also “raises levels of internal bodily energy (kundalini Shakti).” This is otherwise known as Serpent Power, or the Star Wars Force ( Ki ), as explained in Part 1 . Leporati documented Kung Fu's relationship to Yoga: The Sinew Change and 18 Monks Boxing sets attributed to Bodhidharma confer strength and flexibility on the body. The Marrow Washing set raises levels of internal bodily energy ( kundalini shakti ) and strengthens and elongates the spine, thereby tonifying the nervous system. Although methods of physical conditioning were also well-known in China prior to the appearance of Bodhidharma, it is in this uniquely yogic approach that Bodhidharma’s contribution to Shaolin Temple Boxing shows itself to be a profound step towards achieving what the old Tai Ch...
