Abstract

An attempt is made to consider the problem of spiritual freedom through a particular symbol - edged weapons. Information is given about the main schools of the blade, internal training of a warrior. As one of the modern manifestations of the art of the blade the film "Crouching tiger, lurking dragon" is analyzed. Its main characters show the difference between a true master, who has learned harmony, and a fighter who did not devote enough time to internal training. The philosophical conclusions of the Wudang school can still facilitate some decisive choices for man today. The eternal truths help us to find peace within ourselves and to reconcile with the world around us.
