Shi Yongxin did not "commercialize Buddhism," but rather rewrote the temple's millennia-old survival logic in modern language:
1️⃣ Temples have never been "non-commercial" entities; they have always operated a "certainty" supply chain using the language of the times.
Whether it is the 1.0 era of soothing people's hearts, the 2.0 era of real estate finance, or the 3.0 era of cultural IP, the essence is the value exchange through "sacredness" and "trust."
2️⃣ Shi Yongxin is not an outlier, but an "accelerator" standing at the forefront of trends.
He is not someone who has deviated from Buddhist teachings, but rather the earliest operator to understand the temple's "IP" and "internationalization" paths through modern business logic. He accelerates more fiercely than anyone else.
3️⃣ All sacred organizations, once they embrace commerce, must face the eternal tension of "sacredness vs. profitability."
Universities, temples, museums, time-honored brands… maintaining the original intention is harder than expansion; once desire takes on an institutional form, it will take root and turn against the original heart.
4️⃣ The evolution of the Shaolin Temple's commercial empire is, in fact, a mirror of China's millennium-long "faith economy."
From emperors granting land to common people offering incense, from land rent pawnshops to performance licensing, whoever can mobilize trust can mobilize resources—this principle continues to influence our world today.
