I'll keep quoting from yours so both our readers get a taste of local and international at the same time.<BR/><BR/>Regarding the story about GM Gaje, it was told to me by guro Omar Hakim when he was in Malaysia.<BR/><BR/>I believe that it's helpful to Malaysian pesilat to know that what they find in silat is not unique to it, but that it exists everywhere a human being exists, and GM Gaje is a rare diamond.<BR/><BR/>Sad that not many people here know him.<BR/><BR/>Wassalam,Mohd Nadzrin Wahabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688305454146125158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11491737.post-2953282171765206092007-12-01T18:50:00.000-08:002007-12-01T18:50:00.000-08:00I personally met quite a few of exceptional Silat ...I personally met quite a few of exceptional Silat masters here in Malaysia, and learn from them as well. Today, one of them, one of my master, Cikgu Besar (Master) Khairuddin will be visiting me with his family and will be staying with us for a few days. He is a direct descendant of our late Guru Besar Utama Atuk Haji Husin, which is also my master. My late grand father himself, Tuan Haji Ibrahim, is also among these excellent exceptional masters.<BR/><BR/>There is no words to picture their wisdom. Knowledge that I get from them are precious. Experience from being with them are priceless. They are a very special breed of human being. Their words and actions signify true power of wisdom. Hope we are doing enough to carry the continuity of this rare heritage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
