DESCRIPTION

Tsau Huang, the founder of the Mang Quei monastery, completed this legendary martial arts masterpiece nearly six hundred years ago, just prior to his eightieth birthday. Racked by crippling arthritis and practically blind, Tsau Huang’s son, Su Huang, transcribed his father’s words and drew the manual’s numerous illustrations. The volume was printed on high quality linen paper and bound with silver plate covers.  Scholars consider it one of the monastic system’s greatest contributions, a wondrous amalgamation of the virtues of physical prowess and spiritual balance. Only eight copies of the manual survive today, six of which are held in the libraries of renowned monasteries.
