Generally speaking, Chinese martial arts are a type of defensive martial arts, where offensive attack is not the main goal. The three purposes of Shaolin martial arts are to protect the temple, protect oneself and keep fit, rather than to attack others. Resorting to force only when there is no alternative is one characteristic of Chinese martial arts, as well as a feature of military theories in China. One commandment of the Shaolin Temple is the requirement to "hold morals in esteem, rather than force," as evidenced by its incorporating the concept of "benevolence" in Confucianism and by its principle against brutal attack. Shaolin martial arts stipulate the "eight don'ts" when one has to resort to force: don't attack the temples, don't attack the chest, don't attack the soft ribs, don't attack the armpits, don't attack the private parts, don't attack either side of the small of the back, don't attack the coccyx, and don't attack the auricles. These body parts are delicate, and the regulation of the "eight don'ts" is to avoid taking life 去书内

    Chinese martial arts are generally of a defensive nature, with offensive attack not being the main goal. This is in line with the traditional Chinese concept of "zhi ge wei wu" (止戈为武), which means that the essence of martial arts is to stop violence rather than initiate it. As one of the representatives of Chinese martial arts, Shaolin martial arts fully embodies this characteristic.
