Xueting Fuyu (1203 to 1275) revived the Shaolin Monastery in the early Yuan dynasty and established the Caodong Chan transmission there. He also left a poem of seventy characters. Each generation of Shaolin disciples takes the next character in the poem as the first word of their name, so a name states exactly where its holder stands in the line.
That is why a generation is not a title we hand out. It is a position in a line that has run unbroken since Fuyu, and checking it is the first thing we do before any partnership begins.
Those four characters sit side by side in one line of the poem, 德行永延恒, which reads as virtue and conduct extending forever, constant. The fuller story is in our history of the Shaolin Temple.
Protect the tradition.
