Taishi Daruma (Bhodi Dharma) introduced Zen. Sect. At the age of 130 he traveled fromIndia to China in an attempt to spread Buddhism. Few men, if any, have influenced Easternthought and culture to a greater extent than Taishi Daruma, an Indian Buddhist monk whocrossed the Himalayan mountains to Chien-K'ang, the capital of Liang province in Chinaaround 500 A.D. There he instructed the Emperor Wu, who, despite his willingness to encourage the spread of Buddhism, was unable to fully comprehend the teachings. Daruma thentraveled to the country of Wei in North China, where he went into retreat at Shorinji, a temple,to meditate and instruct for nine years. The monks were physically and mentally unfit toendure the severity of the discipline imposed by Daruma for the purpose of bringing them tosatori (enlightenment). With the purpose of strengthening them to endure to the rigors of hisdiscipline he taught a system of exercises based on the Buddhist doctrine of inseparability ofmind and body, which soon earned for them the reputation of being the most formidablefighters in China. ThUS, we have the Shorinjuryu system of defense as the foundation ofChinese kampo. Presumably, Daruma brought the elements of this system with him from India.Despite the great values of Shorinjuryu as a defensive system, this knowledge would havedied with Daruma. Dot Mar, a Chinese Indian Abbot of the Sil Lum Monastery in China,spread Daruma's Science in the form of Mo Kempo and Gan Fu, which were early Chineseforms of Karate. Chen Yuan Ping later introduced Chinese Kempa to Japan in 1644.

Another important contribution to Karate came from jiu-jitsu, which, in its most ancient formprobably came from the Indus Valley. It is known that jiu-jitsu was taught during the reign ofFu-Hi, the first historical Chinese Emperor, in 2852 B.C. The Japanese invasion of Korea in1652 introduced the Japanese to jiu-jilsu, which was readily accepted by the Samurai, as wellas other aspects of Chinese culture. Some forms of Martial Art similar to jiu-jitsiJ, existed inJapan prior to this as indicated qy the Kohiki (Record of Ancient Matters) and the Nihon Skaki(Chronicles of Japan) that were compiled about 800 A.D. During the Muromachi period (13921573) Japanese jiu-jitsu developed markedly and came into full flower during the Edo period(1615-1868) due in part to the frequent civil struggles, which occurred.

At the time of the Restoration of 1868, jiu-jitsu fell into disrepute along with other feudalisticinstitutions. Professor Jigoro Kano, who was versed in the Tenshin Shin-Jo and Kito schoolsof jiu-jitsu, devised modern or Kodekan Judo as a synthesis of the feudalistic systems inwhich universality and systematized techniques were used.

We may now complete the final link in the history of Karate by tracing its development inOkinawa. In 1400 the Sho dynasty consolidated its civil administration with the prohibition and

- 2

confiscation of all arms, leading to an interest in fighting with hands and feet. Fresh impetuswas given to this inclination when China replaced civil emissaries with military personnel,some of whom were skilled in Chinese Kempo. This ancient art was well received by theOkinawan's and absorbed into the native system of unarmed self-defense to becomeOkinawa-Tao Interest was fanned in Okinawa-Te when a Kyushu Lord terminated the Shodynasty with. the capture of Okinawa and a fresh prohibition against weapons. It is not clearwhether the Satsuma Clan or the Shimazu Clan brought this about. The sources consulted onthis point are in conflict. At any rate, Okinawa-Te advanced tremendously as a result of suchoppressive measures. Due to fear of civil authorities, it was necessary to teach Okinawa-Te inthe utmost secrecy and it was not to see the light of day again until 1901. In the light of theforegoing developments, let us now consider the advent of modern Karate.

Modern Karate, as we know it today, is of relatively recent origin and was systematizedfrom elements of Chinese Kempo, Hoppa Ken, Okinawa Te and Japanese jiu-jitsu by MasterChoke Motobu; circa 1917. Master Motobu often does not receive proper credit for his role asthe father of Modern Karate. This honor is sometimes accorded to Master Gichin Funakoshi,whose most important contribution to Karate is probably the result of his having introducedKarate to Japan through the auspices of the Ministry of Education around 1920.

At the turn of the century, Karate was still a secret art, taught only to a seled few, as it hadbeen for three hundred years before. In 1901, Master Ankoh ltus (teacher of Masters Mobotuand Funakoshi) broke with this tradition by teaching Karate as part of the regular curriculum ofthe Okinaqa Normal School. This action followed by Funakoshi's work in Japan has donemuch to speed the dissemination of modern Karate knOWledge throughout the world.

Modern Karate may be considered to be Shorei and Goju styles in various proportionspossibly combined with elements of the ancient Gan-Fu or Kung-Fu (poison hand) techniques.Shorei is a hard fist, low stance form relying principally on the upper body, and was developedby Chojun Miyagi in Naka, Okinawa 1917. The Gojuryu style emphasized kicking and placesless reliance on the fists, permitting open hand styles of blocking which are conductive tograbbing ones opponent. The latter development is the work of Gogen Yamaguchi, the fatherof Gojuryu and a noted Karate Master in Japan.

The science of Karate in its development over the centuries has been long, arduous andeven in danger of being lost to mankind by suppression of indifference. It has neverthelesspersisted due to the devotion of its many students and masters, often in the face of thegreatest hardships. Karate, which clearly surpasses all other Martial Arts, must be considered, in its final form and spirit, an expression of man's indomitable will to survive adversity inthe most direct, self reliant manner possible, requiring only that which nature gave him-a mind

and body; rigorously disciplined as an inseparable entity.

Let us consider this topic from a viewpoint other than that of a system of physical culture.The foundation of Karate techniques can be described as a threefold subject of power, speedand form. This discussion will concern itself with power, speed and form as they maybe explained in the light of the laws of physics.

Power results from a force exerted upon an object. Force may be simply stated as theproduct 'of mass (such as a fist and the body weight that is behind it) and acceleration (changeof velocity) or FXMA. This immediately suggests two ways in which the power of a blow may beincreased. One way consists of throwing the body mass behind the fist starting from the hipsfirst, through the shoulders and arm and finally to the fist for a much greater increase in forcethan one could hope for by merely "throwing a fist". Another way consists of the sudden tensingof the body muscles at the moment of impact followed by instantaneous relaxation for thedevastating whiplash effect, which is the hallmark of a Karate blow. Anyone who has everplayed "Crack the Whip" on ice or roller skates is well aware of the rapid acceleration thatoccurs under such conditions. This action occurs over such a short interval of space, it isalmost indistinguishable to the eye. In the case of a blow, its effect is readily discernable. Thisresult of sudden muscular tension may be further intensified by the action of the saika-tenden indriving the breath down and out upon impact. A kiai, would of course, provide the ultimate inshocking power by providing a degree of tension and relaxation which is notpossible by other means.

Newton's second law states, "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. U Inthis case, still more force will result from the action of pulling back the non-striking or grabbinghand at an even faster rate than the striking fist advances. A correct stance with feet firmlyplanted, is a necessity, which is .also consistent with Newton's second law. In this case, thefeet, at the moment of impact are pressed against the floor with a specific force. It is evident,by the principle just mentioned, that the floor presses against the feet with an equal andopposite force, thus returning the shock of impact to the opponent.

We have now demonstrated that the mechanics of Karate are based on sound scientificprincipals and may be applied to blows administered with any part of the body. The IpponKumite Katas are designed to develop power through their continued practice.

Speed is more difficult to separate from psychological effects in that the mind (if we maydefine it as a bundle of thoughts distinct from that, which is instinctive or reflexive) may imposemental blocks and other impediments to maximum speed. The time required to perform aparticular technique may be brought to the irreducible minimum (a function of reaction time)only by rigorously disciplining the mind and body to permit one to perform without the hindrance

imposed by mental states. At the physical level this is best accomplished by devotion tothe Tauza Naru Waza or continuous motion techniques.

Form contributes directly to power by providing a strong foundation for the actionsperformed through correct stances as explained above. Form also contributes to speed inproviding a correct method of performing the techniques of Karate. This is best accomplishedby working Katas.

The discipline of the mind and strengthening of the will are two very important aspects ofKarate. The beginning Karate-ka first learns this discipline at the physical level where he findsit impossible to assimilate the material fast enough and his strength and endurance fail underthe pace set by his instructors. In these first few weeks of confusion, sore muscles and sometimes near exhaustion, he faces the first test to retire gracefully. The excuses may include thepretext of overtime, perhaps a sore back, or too much school work. Should he continue or justnot come anymore? To quit, is to lose a part of the self and it becomes easier to quit the nexttime. To continue, is to prepare to meet greater difficulties and overcome them by thestrengthening of will and the disciplining of the conscious part of the mind, which offersconvenient ''ways-out."

At some later point the Karate-ka may SUddenly discover that through perseverance he hasgained some degree of ability in performing the techniques as well as the physical ability tocome through the lessons in good shape.

Still later on, the student may find himself in a new dilemma more serious than the first.Despite a feeling of well being due to improved physical condition, the unique situation arisesin which the student realizes he is both tori and his own opponent.

Mastery of mind and body, since they are inseparable, may only be accomplished by longand continued discipline. Much of this discipline may be found in studying the hard art ofKarate. To pursue this goal with the philosophy of Daruma, that is, to rise again after eachdefeat is to rise victorious.

The Sho-Chiku-Bai or pine, bamboo and plum flower on the seal of Master Choke Motobu

may well be taken as symbolic of the moral side of Karate. The pine symbolizes sturdiness

and strength in its straight trunk and constancy and long life in its evergreen needles. In form,

Karate is an extremely violent art, but in its spirit it is non-violent. This seeming paradox may

be explained by the Karate student who prepares to inflict the utmost violence upon an

opponent.· In the final word, he is joined against doing so, except when forced to defend his life,

his family, or his country. Greater strength of character is often required to walk awrf from

unnecessary fights than would be the case if he accepted the challenge of every street

hoodlum who wanted to "try him out."

Conversely the Karate student would never issue a challenge to fight, no matter how angryhe may be. To strike the first blow would be to profane the spirit of Karate as exemplified bythe Ippon Kumite Katas, the Taezu Naru Wazas and the formal Katas, which always begin and

end with a block.

The bamboo personifies the ideals of resilience and purity by its graceful bending in the

wind before breaking. Here the Karate student is reminded what his motives are and that he

seeks no advantage over his fellow man, through the power of his art. He is also resiient inthat he does not break before adversity and though left with nothing but circumstances, hisbare hands will defend him against attack, by virtue of the self-reliance, which so richly endows

the spirit of Karate.

To the Japanese, the meanings of the plum trees are numerous. The bark represents old

age. The new blossoms are happ~ evidence of life springing forth like fresh hope. To Master

Motobu, it meant that everyone should love Karate. The implication of this brief stalementimposes many obligations upon the individual Karate student, for it is through him that thecommunity will form its impressions of Karate and all other Karate students. Any aggressiveuse of one's Karate or actions in ones life, which are less than honest, decent and forthright,may bring about the downfall of Karate. In short, Karate carries with it, the obligation to beabove reproach. For three hundred years before Master Ankoh Itus, the Okinawa masters

selected their students only after the most intensive scrutiny due to the masters' secretnature

of Karate. So should the Karate-ka examine his character for faults.

It is almost impossible to explain Zen. It may be possible to explain it in Karate or even to

use Karate as a way to arrive at Zen.

Western man has been given to conceptual thinking. These are the fruits of this conscious

thought. This dualism must always be categorized as good or bad, rich or poor, etc. In thecase of a few western mystics, he has lost the original mind or intuitive realization. His egohas swallowed him up so that he can perform few actions without considering all possiblefactors involved. Ultimately, by the regressive effect of such an approach, he is hampered frommaking any direct or spontaneous action. He must rely on an intellectual approach that weighs,sorts, and chooses. He than finds that he has run into a brick wall and can go no further. Toovercome this limitation, by letting the original mind make the decisions on an intuitive basis, is

alarming. The reason is because he does not trust himself beyond his conscious thought. He

has never given himself to the meditation practiced by oriental philosophers and has missed a

viewpoint of himself that is quite different from an ego inspired approach. Let us consider how

this affects the Karate student. In Ji-Ju kumite, the Karate-Ka is faced with an opponent thatmust always consider how he can best attack and how he will evade that thrust, block or

punch. In considering all these possibilities, besides watching for the opponent's first move, hemust be able to correctly interpret it, instead of becoming tense and unprepared to meet theattack. When the attack comes and he blocks after the blow, he becomes frustrated. At the

next attack, he may simply freeze up, lost in decision and grow more confused with each

encounter or challenge.

Zen Viewpoint supplies the answer to this dilemma, which also explains the old proverb,

"Security in the shadow of danger." This is simply standing quietly, detached from opponentand self, planning for nothing. The mind is cleared of thought and is like a mirror reflecting only

that, which is before it. In this manner, the mind and body are free to act in the mostspontaneous manner without the impedimentof ones mental state.

It is very difficult to stand calmly before an opponent with no thoughts flowing through the

mind and without trying to make advance decisions. HaVing the will to do so however, will be

rewarded by flashes of intuitive response. It does not matter whether the response is correct

by conventional standards. The end result of proper training will enable one to go on withoutconstant planning and revamping plans and yet be equal to whatever comes their way. The

very freedom of trusting one's self to react without worrying about reactions will remove any

mental block.
