Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of this book Searching for Kung Fu recalls my own journey over decades in the search for both the most traditional Kung Fu practices and the philosophical teachings embedded within. It begins as a teenager studying Karate in America, learning from one of the great Okinawa masters Shihon Kenneth Funakoshi. Realizing that the root of Karate is actually Kung Fu, the journey brought me to China, to the legendary Shaolin Monastery seeking the source of Kung Fu. During these years I have had the opportunity and privilege to train under many of China’s great masters whose stories and philosophies are imparted in this book. I am sharing the story of my journey, as it is really the shared journey of every martial artist. The second part of this book The Gate of Nine Dragons reflects nine key Kung Fu principles presented through the traditional “Nine Dragon Sons.” These are nine Kung Fu concepts that can be understood as a code shared by and belonging to every school of martial arts. As a code this set of nine principles represent a set of integrated mind-set values that we can adopt in our daily lives: Perseverance, Loyalty, Balance, Change, Centering, Harmony, Flow, Emptiness, Non-violence. These nine Kung Fu principles can be understood as nine stages of training, nine aspects of Chinese philosophy, or nine values shared by martial artists offered here as a code.

Cameron St. James is a talented high-altitude recon pilot. When one of his missions takes him over North Korea, his plane goes down. Atop a mountain peak he meets another American, Bull Beauchamp, who has learned to be the ultimate human from an ancient book written by a Korean mystic. Bull tutors St. James for sixteen years until he too is a Master. In 1988, North Korean troops seek out the two Americans. St. James escapes and travels to Seoul during the Olympic Games. Through a case of mistaken identity, he is able to return to the States and discovers his life’s mission is to eradicate true evil. St. James’ missions bring him to the attention of two deadly government agents from the H.O.P.E. division of S.E.C.T., who are every bit as ultimate as he is, as well as a lone FBI agent who doesn’t know exactly what she’s tracking. Their destinies become intertwined as their Paths Cross.
