Craig Reid article on shaolin from Russia??

[blooming lotus]

Had a chance to check out the new E-zine article by Craig reid ( one with the disturbing one armed dude in the making pic) and noticed a comment about shaolin having roots in Russia. Does anyone have a copy they scan and post??? If that's against forum rules or something, I'm happy to pay to have it sent, because I've played with the same theory myself for quite a while but 've kind of come to a bit of a wall on it.

I'm sure others'll be interested as well , so if you have it, or know where to find it, cheers in advance.

One should never be scared by research. You can dread it, but you shouldn't be scared by it.

She'd have to be able to recognise one first.

The boarder that separates china and russia is political rather than a geograhpic feature. In short, there is a lot of transfer of knowledge in central asia. It is not surprising that shaolin has been influenced in this regard.
