An examination of the Japanese martial arts
and their spiritual transfer into everyday life
Anyone who trains in a martial art is characterised by the persistent decision to constantly and consistently develop themselves further. Rarely satisfied with themselves, they will therefore constantly set themselves new standards and thus constantly push the limits of their performance. The most difficult opponent he has to defeat is himself.
His path leads him through victories and defeats to ever new tasks, which he sets himself and which in turn mould him.
Challenges such as putting his own ego in its proper place lead to a perspective that can cause the martial artist to move more in harmony with his surroundings. In this way, it is possible for him to release positive energy that can also offer other people support on their path.
