A Shaolin disciple, for example, is trained to be courteous and considerate, brave and righteous, assess problems and situations with calmness and clarity, and attend to duties with zest and loyalty. While the philosophy of many martial arts mainly focuses on how to be stoic and hurt the opponent, Shaolin philosophy teaches gentleness and a love for life. The twin pillars of Shaolin philosophy are compassion and wisdom.

The International Shaolin Wahnam Show
Shaolin Wahnam family members from various countries present an International Show at Sifu Wong Chun Nga's wedding dinner.
Having Sifu and Chun Nga in the United States is always full of fun. You always have to think of new tricks to prevent Sifu paying the Bill. Food is no problem with Chun Nga. He prefers exhibiting his excellence in shopping. Saying good-bye to Sifu and Chun Nga at the airport is as much fun as welcoming them when they arrive.

Shaolin Wahnam Discussion Forum
If you can forgive someone and they see it as a sign of weakness, then that's their problem not yours. If someone can seriously hurt you and you can genuinely forgive them, then you are a hero.
Compassion and wisdom are some of the highest ideals we hope to acheive in Shaolin Wahnam, forgiveness is a major part of this. We have all being wronged by someone at some point, learning forgiveness will help us in our lives and in our training.
