World Record Sniper: What It Takes to Pass Sniper School, Life After the Military, & More | Craig Harrison
In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Craig Harrison, a former British military sniper renowned for holding the world record for the longest sniper shot in combat history.

This profound conversation brings his journey full circle, exploring the deep personal and spiritual transitions he has navigated over the past three years. Master Shi Heng Yi opens up about experiencing a highly challenging period of internal struggle. He discusses the difficult but necessary decision to step away from his established life at the temple in Germany to prioritise and support his family. This major life shift forced him to confront his attachments, dismantle his public identity, and deeply evaluate the philosophies that truly serve him. Throughout the episode, he reflects on the concepts of shedding old habits and stepping into a life of pure authenticity. He shares valuable insights on releasing the need for external validation, the paradox of finding true fulfilment through emptiness, and why the real essence of Shaolin lies in the mental teachings of Zen rather than just physical movement.
