Abstract: In the context of "shendu" in Chinese culture, the origin and development of Wushu undoubtedly adds to the uniqueness of the "shendu" thought. The "shendu" thought, on the other hand, has helped opened up a vast space of research for the "practice" of Wushu which has a strong practical orientation. As far as its primary tendency is concerned, the "training" of Wushu has evolved from the simple "internal cultivation" and "outside training" to a logical structure of "form acquaintance, then understanding energy, and finally achieving highest level of naturalness". Therefore, we believe that Wushu practitioners' inquiry about "form acquaintance" requires their own "self-reflection and self-clarity"; their inquiry about "understanding energy" requires their own "self-restraining"; and their inquiry about "naturalness" requires their "sincerity". The three dimensions are integral and constitute together the internal logic of "practice" and "shendu" of Wushu. In practice, only through intuitive perception and conscious pursuit of body philosophy can Wushu practitioners master the secret of "practice" in Wushu and eventually reach the state of "unifying various paths under one goal".
