💗Bruce Lee and The God of War: Kuan Ti 💗💗💗💗

Bruce Lee, the Dragon, died on July 20, 1973. Rest in Peace. Rest in Peace. Rest in Peace!

I am going to leave for a while. . . My health is not good. Blessings. It has been fun. Love you all. BYE BYE.

This was my only "Top Story," one of my first that i wrote. I have not received any more. Oh Well.

I love you all. I am cancer free. Bruce Lee took Betty Ting's pain med and died from it. Stupid. Do not take other people mediation. Never.

Also he should not have been in an actresses home alone, when he was married with kids. Never.

It starts with love..

The Power to the God Of War and Wealth

Walk into a Chinese restaurant (even in Oklahoma, USA), a Chinese police station, a kung fu martial arts studio or even a Chinese temple and you often see a red faced warrior holding a heavy quan-do (spear like weapon).

In the film “Enter the Dragon,” at one point during a fight, behind Bruce Lee is a statue of the God of War.

He was known as Kuan Yu, a man that became a god. He is based a real person who was loved during the Ching Dynasty. He was from the Han Dynasty (3rd century AD) He became the patron saint for all martial artists, good and bad, police and Triad.

His story became legend in the famous novel: Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He teamed up with Lui Pei and Chang Fei as sworn brothers and became a famous warrior.

This was a period of the revolt of the Yellow Turbans. The three friends helped to end the rebellion.

Another rebellion would be led by General Tsao Tsao, who captured Liu Pei and then Kuan Yu. Kuan Yu surrendered because he wanted to see his friend Liu Pei again. The General captured him to try to convince him to join his side.

He tried to bribe and even tempt Kuan Yu by keeping him with Liu Pei, his wife and concubines. Instead, Kuan Yu resisted the money and the women.

His country, integrity, and friendship meant more to him than fame and wealth.

It is more his deed of kindness and honesty that made him a warrior saint. He represented Confucian values, where loyalty is so valued.

A couple of centuries later an emperor promoted him to Prince, another to Duke and so on.

Much later in 1594, he was elevated to godhood by the Ming Emperor Wan Li and was given the title: Ti.

He became the guardian of business or another god of wealth.

A statue of Kuang Kung is present in the background of "Enter the Dragon" when Lee fights the villain Han. Kuan Kung became a god but was once a man.

Bruce Lee becomes an idol, a god like figure in the history of martial arts cinema. But his legend continues to grow in the martial arts community.

Thank you for reading. . . Bruce Lee changed my life as I became a gymnast and learned various martial arts and I am also a Mindful Wellness Coach.

It starts with love. . . Love everyone. . . Stop the Wars.
