Then he proposed rules and regulations for the religion. He is the first Buddha. Buddha is the one who controls and teaches his disciples. When the head is dead, another Buddha will arise and teach the disciples. Many movies include Martial Arts scenes that are considered to be originated from China.
BODHIDHARMA
Bodhidharma was a price and 3rd son of Pallavas. He lived between the 5th to 6th centuries. He was wise and learned many skills in Buddhism. This is the period when Buddhism was being popular among people. That was exactly 1000 years after Buddha dead. Bodhi's father was the king and was moving ill. He was eager to choose the next king after his death. He knew that Bodhi was the only child who was book-ridden and acquired with much knowledge, also knew martial arts, and was well versed in Buddhism and politics. The king wants to appoint him but the first 2 songs would get angry and fight each other. So, he called the senior Buddha during that time and she was a woman.

The Buddhas were considered equal to God. This female buddha suggested Bodhi rule the Pallavas region next. But Bodhi was eager to learn the people's minds and medicine. She also taught them his necessity and made him rich in skills. She intimated to visit China because China was following two different types of Buddhism and was not faithful. They running materialistic and fighting each other. Bodhi and she was the only person to calm them out. Bodhi visited China and left India. The king welcomed him with pleasure as he knew the popularity of Bodhi in India. Some people first rejected him and then slowly they endured him. Then he started moving towards Shaolin. This village was rich in theft. To control this situation, he taught Defence Art i.e., Kungfu. This was just to protect not to attack. He was the one who introduced Kungfu to China. He even wrote books for medicine. When a disease arrives, we write a book on how to create this medicine and take this. Then everybody follows him and is eager to Arts from him. But their wish was too full materialistic and not dedicated. He moves out of the Shaolin Temple and proceeds to a cave and sits facing the wall of the cave, not the entrance. Many people come to him and ask him to teach. But he never turns. He eats and sits in the same posture. He even has cut his eyelids because sometimes he was sleeping unknowingly. One day, a disciple enters the entrance of the cave and asks him to teach. He doesn't turn. He scares him that he will cut his hand and throw it if he didn't turn. He again doesn't turn. Then he cuts his hand and throws it below and the place turns bloody. Finally, he turns and realizes the dedication of the disciple towards his Art. Then he teaches everyone. After a few years, he decided to move to India, but the people in China weren't allowing him. He was sure of his decision. People kept poison in his food to kill as he was moving to India. Bodhi knew the plan and wanted to eat it and told one of his true disciples to cure him with the medicine that he gave him. He did this just to fulfill both wishes. China believes Bodhi has dead and buried him. He then was taken out and cured by his disciple as planned. He then moved to India. While moving to India, a man was moving towards China and noticed Bodhi was walking with one Slipper in his hand. He was shocked and confirmed Bodhi that he was Bodhi or not. He asked that man to visit the place he was buried in China. He rushed to the place and found the other slipper of Bodhi. China then becomes united as per Bodhi's teaching of Zen Buddhism. It is considered that he was living till 150 years and died. Till now the clear version of his death is not confirmed.
