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

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

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

Martial arts are not studied to enhance aggression, but to train the spirit to reveal flaws for ones own self correction.

We are all of this earth, do not fight or lay greed. The earth is plentiful if we can all learn to share it.

Martial Arts should not focus entirely on the destruction of an enemy but in ways it can strive to embrace the enemy.

To live only in today or the past leaves no room for tomorrow.
