中国人视道为体系完整的思想学说，是宇宙、人生的法则、规律，所以，中国人不轻易言道，不像日本茶有茶道，花有花道，香有香道，剑有剑道，连摔跤搏击也有柔道、跆拳道。在中国饮食、玩乐诸活动中能升华为“道”的只有茶道。 Chinese regard Tao as a complete system which is the rule and law of universe and life. Therefore, Chinese

In the introduction, it was suggested that Wing Chun was a different, more technique-based system of Kung Fu compared to the more ordinary systems of Kung Fu that rely as much on brute strength as superior technique. Much was said there to describe what WCKF wasn’t. Also immediately above, we introduced the philosophical essence, the very heart, of WCKF.
