Within the martial arts, while competition in the form of sport exists, the art of Budo, a way of love may never be truly understood.

After a life time study in martial arts you may come to the realization that fighting or not fighting, is really the same.

Respect should always be offered to the opponent first. Often this can lead an attitude of dis-harmony into a peaceful resolution.

The enlightened martial artist sees no enemy but the one within.

Love never destroys; hate in itself bears the scars of countless battles.

Treat others in the way you would like to be treated and a harmony shall exist.

The pursuit of powerful aggression within martial arts are the most often sought. This only creates more distance from one another and will never be the answer. Seek the pathless path in your journey and all will become clear in time.

To have no compassion in your martial art, shows a cover up of our most natural instinct; “fear”.

Everyone seeks some form of appreciation. Strive to offer appreciation whenever possible and you will create a peaceful wake wherever you go.
