Is Lineage important?

How important is linage? Depends on several key issues. But one issue is, never let it over ride your training!!. Everyone wants to jump over the next, he was once my student now he is calling me kung fu brother or sihing, next year he will be calling me tow dy (student). How far can it go? I have seen this happen many times in other arts, what can you do? Who cares? it don’t make you a better fighter or teacher, actually you become worse because half your time you spend trying rub shoulders and getting to stand next to person rather than train. Also if the teacher knows full well that you’re a student of his student and decides to ask you to become his student, that means the master has no respect for his long term student and will do the same to everyone, Get it? You know something half the time it’s about money, ly see packet.
Yes lineage is important providing the list of master’s have a heart and understands its meaning and willing students who want to train.
Also no one can be placed on a family tree unless authorised by there teacher and Grand teacher a like. They must have the following qualifications. The title sifu must be given to them, a flag to authorise and in the older days a weapon was given to the student by the teacher as a Gift to reach the title.
All is important, but training to reach the standard is essential by far!
