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.

To defeat an enemy with compassion over aggression will take great understanding. Introduce this as a part of your life’s philosophy.

It’s less important how strong others see you. And far more important in the strength you see in yourself.

To win over an enemy with love is a far greater reward than to conquer the enemy with hate.

To hate is to know love. Strive to love over hate, if we are all to survive.

Without some form of understanding of “ki”, the brain will always interpret technique from a physical perspective.

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

Why is there so much energy given to the art of war? The art of peace requires so little!

Why do we study a lifetime of fighting within the martial arts? To seek a peaceful path to enlightenment.

To hate or to not hate an enemy! It starts within your mind! Train to see all from the same perspective.
