In the books

  1. #56 Encounter Group

    Sinanju discipline/energy source that Chiun believes was transmitted to Master Wang by visitors from the stars; the novel ultimately presents that origin as a hypothesis rather than established fact.

  2. #69 Blood Ties

    In-world power/tradition of Sinanju, said to pass through Masters.

  3. #70 The Eleventh Hour

    Breathing and body-control discipline described as the basis of Sinanju skill; legend attributes its discovery to Wang.

  4. #121 A Pound of Prevention

    Chiun invokes the Sun Source in his account of the discovery that ended the Sinanju villagers’ practice of drowning infants; this is lore distinct from water exposed inside the Luzu baobab.

  5. #128 The End of the Beginning

    A spiritual principle in Sinanju lore. Chiun attributes the prophecy to Great Wang and says Nuihc lacked its essence; retain these as source claims and family tradition.

  6. #129 Father to Son

    Term for Sinanju’s claimed primordial status and the ring-of-fire revelation attributed to Great Wang.
