Karate is not only dojo training.
-
Don't forget that Karate begins with a bow and ends with a bow.
-
In Karate, never attack first.
- One who practices Karate must follow the way of justice
- First you must know yourself. Then you can know others.
- Spiritual development is paramount; technical skills are merely
means to the end.
- You must release your mind
- Misfortune comes out of laziness.
- Karate is a lifelong training.
- Put Karate into everything you do.
- Karate is like hot water. If you do not give heat
constantly it will again become cold.
- Do not think you have to win. Think that
you do not have to lose.
- Victory depends on your ability to
tell vulnerable points from invulnerable
ones.
- Move according to your opponent.
- Consider your opponent's hands and
legs as you would sharp swords.
- When you leave home, think that
millions of opponents are waiting
for you.
- Ready position for beginners
and natural position for
advanced students.
- Kata is one thing. Engaging
in a real fight is another.
- Do not forget (1)strength
and weakness of power,
(2)expansion and contraction
of the
body, (3)slowness
and speed
of techniques.
- Devise at all times.
