World Of Swords

It isnt long, after a person is introduced to the martial arts, that the student begins thinking about The True Art. At first, he is enamored by the concept, for this is like seeking the holy grail, and he is drawn irresistibly onward. As time passes, however, he becomes grizzled in his outlook, worn and tired even, as the holy grail eludes him.

The reason for this disillusionment is that there have not been any clear cut datums concerning the actual essence of this thing called The True Art. Further, without definition, the seeking becomes a loose meandering between concepts without any real hope of the endeavor succeeding. The purpose of this article, then, is to define some of the concepts that make up The True Art.

To seek The True Art one must balance the machine of the body until it begins to hum and gives up the wobble. If one finds The Hum inherent in a properly operated machine, then one is awarded with a long life, fine health, and all sorts of abilities, some of which border on the mystical. There are four specific factors the student must be aware of if he is to find and live The True Art.

The first factor is relaxation. One must relax, and give up the distractions of other tensions. This is the only way to dedicate the body, and to free it to achieve The True Art.

The second factor is breathing. Tied closely to relaxation, breathing feeds the machine, relaxes it, and is of extreme importance when it comes to synchronizing body movements. A rather useful oversimplification of this factor would be that one breathes out when the body expands, and in when the body contracts.

The third factor is grounding the weight. Sink the weight, and connect the machine to the planet, and then the machine is stabilized and able to generate energy efficiently. A thorough study should be conducted concerning alignment of the body and which leg(s) one is grounding.

The fourth factor is that one must study the universe, through the forms and such, for potential dichotomy. Truth, the whole universe, and all its parts are a dichotomy. Understanding this through the study of body discipline liberates and enlightens a student to his maximum potential.

There are other items which should be covered when studying The True Martial Art. This article, simple as it is, will begin the procedure. I recommend that one study the physics of electronics, machinery, and the like to complete the process.
