2010 Course: The Monk Da Mo's Marrow Washing Classic
As the patriarch of millions of Zen Buddhists, students of Shaolin, of qi gong, the monk Da Mo, or Bodhidharma, is probably better known now then he was in his own lifetime.
It's impossible to separate the facts from the legends and the fiction. So, boldly, unashamedly, here is an offering from that very mix of legend, fact and fiction: Bodhidharma's Muscle Change and Marrow Washing Classic Series. The man, the legend, the energy inspires us to open to the transmission and find for ourselves the truth of the teachings in this physical body.
In the version being presented by Ram there are a basic 24 forms. Some are standing forms; some involve moving the whole body. All the forms comprise yin and yang aspects. Some of the forms are explosive; some are very gentle. On the level of external grace, there is much beauty to behold in these forms.
This training will suit youth as well as middle age. It will suit those wishing to pursue inner stillness as well as outer strength; those in pursuit of the Tao; those seeking the original face.
The Marrow Washing Classic is a practical application of the Heart Sutra and the longer Diamond Sutra. For those familiar with the Heart and Diamond Sutras, here is a rare opportunity to make the practical application of those teachings.
