Produktbeschreibung

"The Last Grandmaster: Legend of Hua" is a epic tale of one man's estraordinary struggle and ultimate triumph, and reveals to modern readers for the first time, an ancient, mystical path to success and long life. It chronicles the achievements of Grandmaster Sin Kwang The¿, an extraordinary man, whose exceptional discipline and superb martial arts expertise enabled him to become the youngest Grandmaster in history. Schooled in the East in the ancient Shaolin martial arts by the legendary Shaolin Grandmaster E, and schooled in the West by two of Hollywood's most famous screenwriters, Sid Field and Robert Mckee, Grandmaser Sin Kwang The¿ is uniquely able to take you on a journey through his eventful life and beyond, into the mystical realm of ancient legend to share powerful life-enhancing techniques never before available to the West. "The Last Grandmaster" artfully weaves the legendary stories of historic martial arts heroes with the Grandmaster's own life story, set against riveting events in the history of modern China. The Grandmaster also introduces a profound spiritual element into his exciting tale by revealing the existence of his own spiritual guardian, the legendary martial arts warrior, Lady Hua, who first appeared to him in his dreams as a boy. Lady Hua has served as his spiritual guardian throughout his entire life and unfailingly led him through tragedy and pitfalls on his path to greatness. With her guidance, Sin The¿ was able to persevere through tragedies that might have crushed a lesser man, saved by his unwavering commitment to a lifelong regimen of superhumanly-grueling martial arts training that few others could have survived. The book also reveals the workings of the 720 pressure points in our bodies that mysteriously effect our health and well-being, which, when harnessed, can make you stronger, faster, smarter, healthier, longer lived, and enable you to become wealthier and more successful than you ever dreamed possible. Best of all, at the end of the book, Grandmaster Sin Kwang The¿ bestows the ancient Nei Kung technique of "Eternal Youth" onto his faithful readers, which, when combined with a special, enhanced "Green Smoothie" elixir he has developed just for you, can extend your life expectancy by decades! BOOK ONE: This book, the first in a three volume set, follows the Grandmaster from his infancy during the brutal WWII Japanese invasion and occupation of Indonesia through to the later years of civil unrest and rioting that tragically took the lives of two of his dearest loved ones, culminating in his journey to America to begin anew. BOOKS TWO & THREE: The two sequels to follow will chronicle his rise in America to become the founder and respected leader of the largest martial arts organization in the world outside of China, and his ultimate success as an Executive Producer in Hollywood of the soon-to-be a major motion picture, the martial arts action feature, "Defenders of the Gao." His message to you all is: "Only by daring to dream can your dream become reality..."

Autorenporträt

"The Last Grandmaster: Legend of Hua" was written by Grandmaster Sin Kwang The¿, revered leader of the ancient Shaolin Martial Arts technique developed by the Shaolin warrior monks centuries ago in China. Touted in the press as one of "The Most Dangerous Men in the World" for his legendary fighting prowess, in truth, he possesses a gentle spirit and a peaceful soul in harmony with Life. Grandmaster The¿ is the great-grandson of Zheng Kai Chan, a native of Fu Ching City in China's Fu Jian province, who was honored to be chosen as a 'Zi Se', one of the top ten scholars in all of China, by the Empress Dowager herself. Chan later distinguished himself further by becoming one of Dr. Sun Yat Sen's right hand men during the Chinese revolution, and co-founded Tung Men Hui (United Union Group) with Dr. Sun to promote revolution in China. In his later years, Chan became the honored martial arts master who trained Chang Kai Shek in hand-to-hand combat. Sin The¿ was raised in Indonesia and followed in his honorable ancestor's footsteps in martial arts and scholarship. He has devoted his life to mastering the ancient techniques of Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Nei Kung and many other rare and challenging martial art forms. Sin The¿s discipline and dedication enabled him to become the youngest Grandmaster in history. He has been honored throughout the world and has commemorative plaques at both the legendary Northern and Southern Shaolin Temples in China. He immigrated America to study nuclear physics, then founded the Shaolin-Do Martial Arts School, which, with over one million students and alumni, is considered the largest Chinese organization outside of China. In addition to teaching his master classes, the Grandmaster is executive producing the martial arts film "Defenders of the Gao," a major Hollywood motion picture franchise. To combine ancient Eastern Wisdom with Western super-hero ethos, Grandmaster Sin Kwang The ¿ enlisted his daughter, Denise The¿, to write the Defenders script. Denise is a highly successful screenwriter in Hollywood, currently working for one of the top producer-directors in the world. The Grandmaster has committed his life to achieving the highest possible level of martial arts skill and Nei Kung philosophy so he might serve as a worthy ambassador to promote marital arts and ancient Chinese wisdom around the world.
