10 Rules of Karate for You
10 Rules of Karate for You. Putting together the principals takes in a life experience.
The idea that there are only 10 Rules of Karate is a starting point. it could be 2 it could be 20.
Funakoshi had 20 principals. Thinking of hands and feet as swords is number 17 I think. The majority of the topics are about how to carry oneself. Funakoshi place great value on personal perfection.
The stoics and karate? Cross cultures coming to similar ideas yet never speaking leads to a sense of truth. Bruce Lee, and the Straight Blast. That makes sense considering Brule Lee’s martial arts origins in Wing Chun Gung-Fu.
Rules. The following of rules even to the point of absurdity. Catch-22 the classic novel and movie get a nod for absurdity. And we find ourselves throwing away stupid rules. The raising of a child is based on rules designed to create a good person, not a hideous creature that people abhor.
Chapter: Punches Come in Bunches
The Chapter: Punches Come in Bunches, and the sub-set, “Chunking is only for the training hall.” The world-famous Gantt Chart gets a going over. How it works in the training hall and how it is, let’s call it flexible. In the training hall, the serial environment lets you practice safely and repeatedly.
Children licking doorknobs and pulling cat tails get a different form of rules. These stronger rules are necessary and the softer rules, we use when talking to an adult mind.
Here is an old-line you have heard repeatedly, “The answer is in the kata.” Yes, the answer is in the kata and you should approach kata about principal and not draconian rules.
Entry points or restrictions the viewpoint you choose is a way you frame the world, the martial arts world.
About 10 Rules of Karate
From the bestselling authors of The Way of Kata, The Little Black Book of Violence, and Musashi’s Dokkodo…Your immutable path to victory!
All ten precepts in this concise book cut to the heart of ending physical confrontations as quickly as possible with empty-hand techniques. Our definition of “ending” is to make the attack stop.
Running after the now fleeing assailant to catch and strike him down. There is no lesson, no teaching, no therapy, no epiphany. There is only making that bad guy stop what he is doing instantly so that you and those you care about will be safe.
The strategy of karate is based on principle, what practitioners do to prepare for contact with an adversary, while tactics are what we do during the heat of battle.
Top Down, Not the Reverse
Practicing a martial art from tactics upward to principles creates a house of cards that will collapse from a gentle breeze, whereas working downward from principles into tactics builds a formidable foundation that can weather near any storm.
These ten principles are style agnostic, all about ending fights immediately. They define how to best apply your skills and training in the real world. Those who work with these principles will find swiftness, clarity, and victory in so doing.
