Luohan Quan

[green]

In the gong fu literature section of the website there is a series of pictures showing Luohan Quan, are the four sections seperate forms, or are they made to fit together as one form?
Thanks.

Do you have a specific link? I honestly don't remember, nor do I know if I'd be able to find it. Oh, wait, you might not be able to get a link with the frames. Can you list the "layers" that you go through to find this?

There is a link to a pdf n your post.

Thanks.

Well, to be honest, I have no idea what that "book" is showing. It's not Xiao or Da Lohan, nor is it any part of those two forms.

I'm clueless. Just clueless.

This form is taken from De Qian's Shaolin encyclopedia. It is on page 2 of book 2. The form is broken into nine parts, called "the first (second, third, ...) arhat eighteen movement of hands". The first eight parts have about 20 moves each, and the ninth has 40 moves.

The book on your page only has the first four parts. The pictures are completly identical to De Qian's.

I have a friend who can read traditional Chinese charactors. He has helped me translate other kung fu books so I may ask him for help.

Thanks.
