As many of you know, I'm a disciple of the great Monk Wong.
Many years ago, Monk Wong was training in Jian by the ancient lake near the Leopard Temple, and happened to have a large amount of gold bullion on his person. Out of nowhere, a gang of thieves surrounded him and said, "Oi Wong, hand over the dosh." Now Monk Wong is also a master in spiritual tolerance, and so attempted the way of peace, saying, "I can see you are a noble band of thieves. Heed the warning and be on your way." Sadly for the gang, the didn't listen.
Within seconds Wong had disarmed every single one of them and dished out a fair few knuckle sandwiches on the way.
I often recall this episode during my own training. The key lesson = first try the way of peace. If this doesn't work, no more Mr Nice Guy.
