The Martial arts are based upon understanding, hard work and a total comprehension of skills. power training and the use of force are easy, but total comprehension of all of the skills of the martial arts is very difficult to achieve. To understand you must study all of natural movement in all living things. Naturally, you can understand the martial arts of others. You can study the timing and the weakness. Just knowing these two elements will give you the capacity to knock him down rather easily


The heart of the martial arts is in understanding techiques
To understand techniques you must learn that they contain a lot of condesed movement. This may look quite awkward. when you start to learn it you will find find that it is awkward start to learn it you will find that it is awkward to you. That is because a good technique includes quick changes, great variety and speed. It may be a system of reversals much like a concept of ? and Devil. In the speed of events, which one is really in charge? Do they change places with lightning speed? The chinise believe so . To put the heart of the martial arts in your own heart and have it be part of you means total comprehension and the use of a free style. When you have that you will know that there are no limits.

Precations on Physical Techniques

Some martial arts are very popular, real crowd pleasers, because they look good, have smooth techniques, but beware, They are like a wine that has been watered. A diluted wine is not a real wine, not a good wine, hardly the genuine article.
Some martial arts don’t look good, but you know that they have a kick, a tang, a genuine taste. They are like olives. The taste maybe strong and bitter-sweet. The flavor lasts. You can cultivate a taste for them. No one ever developed a taste for diluted wine.

The way to transcend karma lies in the proper use of mind and the will. The oneness of all life is a truth that can be fully realized only when false notions of a separate self, whose destiny can be considered apart from the whole, are forever annihilated

On Zen
If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Moving, be like still water. Still, be like mirror. Respond like an echo
