This is not a new phenomena. This was the norm in China and Japan for many years. I think that it is a mechanism though which martial arts grow and is completely healthy in the long run. New things are tried and some fail. Styles will come and go, b…
As I said, my first test isn't definitive, but martial art is moving meditation. If it is being employed for the right reasons, even in a fight, it would still meet my criteria for meditation. I don't subscribe to the western view that meditation is…
This is by no means definitive and shouldn't be misconstrued as being such, but it's an easy test that I apply.

- " From the state of the Uncarved Block comes the ability to enjoy the simple and the quiet, the natural and the plain. Along with that comes the ability to do things spontaneously and have them work, odd as that may appear to others at times.
