In early 2006, Grandmaster Wu crossed peacefully in his sleep over into the realm of pure Qi energy. He left a loving message for his students to understand that the physical body is only a transitory vehicle. We are eternally that energy which we cultivate throughout our existence. An enlightened teacher seeks to empower his students so that they will exceed his own reach, and yet he will always be with us. Many students who never met Master Wu are now receiving his call to expand on his life work.
Students fortunate enough to have basked in his physical presence celebrate his rich and successful life in different events. His joyful, happy smile, generosity and heartfelt teachings could never be forgotten. His successor, Master Yeung, returned to China this past summer to collect storylines for a book on the legendary Grandmaster Wu.
