I think that really depends on your lineage (family). Some may not put as much importance on him as others. There are many others who are emphasized. Before him though you would be correct, there aren't many pictures available. But during his time and after, there have been many, many masters "emphasized". Of course after him the lineage does get wider. He taught many students who have gone on to also teach many, this widens the lineage quite a bit. Also, it makes many modern day "masters" who were taught by him and so they respect him.mantis said:why is this particular master such an important figure in Tang Lang Quan?
why isnt there anyone else who is emphasized, or highlighted as much as he is? or is it just coz there are pictures available?
