Synopsis
Was the founder of Shaolin kung fu Chinese? Was Zen Buddhism created by a Japanese sage? What role did Nordics play, if any, in the formation of Far Eastern civilizations and cultures? This remarkable essay draws together considerable evidence that the founder of Buddhism, martial arts and the Zen philosophy, did indeed lay with an Indo-European-descended wanderer into the Far East. Drawing on original descriptions and writings from China and elsewhere, the author shows that despite modern depictions of Buddha and his proselytizing acolytes as Mongoloid, the more ancient sources described him with European, and even Nordic, features. Finally, a section on DNA evidence is provided which confirms the link between Europeans and Ancient China. Footnotes, references, illustrated. Fascinating reading! Contents: On Martial Arts, Zen, and the Blue-Eyed, Red-Bearded Barbarian. References. Genetic testing reveals awkward truth about Xinjiang's famous mummies Genetic Structure of a 2,500-Year-Old Human Population in China and Its Spatiotemporal Changes. Brief communication: Two-rooted lower Canines--A European trait and sensitive indicator of admixture across Eurasia. Trading genes along the silk road: mtDNA sequences and the origin of central Asian populations., Was the founder of Shaolin kung fu Chinese? Was Zen Buddhism created by a Japanese sage? Drawing on original descriptions and writings from China and elsewhere, the author shows that despite modern depictions of Buddha and his proselytizing acolytes as Mongoloid, the more ancient sources described him with European, and even Nordic, features.

    I had a hard time finding this book locally, but this seller managed to have a copy available. Their store is immense! The book was shipped quickly, was carefully packaged, and in great condition. Just as described- brand new! I am glad to have snagged this copy before they become increasingly harder to find, and increasingly more expensive. This one was priced very fair and I am sure if you take a look you will find irresistible deals! Get shopping!
