Shaolin Monks
There
are of course too many Shaolin monks to line them all up here.
However we try to list here the most famous Buddhist (warrior)
monks of the Shaolin temple.
First,
to better understand the names of the monks, it's good to know a
little more about it. The name of a Shaolin monk / disciple,
always excists of three parts. The fist part is 'Shi', a monk /
disciple of Shaolin. The second part depends on the generation of
the monk. The abbot of the Shaolin temple during the Song dynasty
'Fu Ju' has written a
poem
and every caracter in this poem represents a generation, starting
with abbot Fu Ju, and not with Ba Tuo, or Bodidharma. The third
caracter of the name represents the monk's
name.
