It's unfortunate that it is often swept under the mats or disregarded altogether because in those spiritual aspects of our practise, I feel there lie many rewards for us students.Bigshadow said:I think martial arts cultivates the spirit. This can be good, bad, or somewhere in between. It is a very personal thing and I don't think it can be taught, it just comes along with the training. We don't talk about it or try to teach it (as far as I know).
I know where you're coming from though. This is the real world and normally spirituality in our arts is seen as "soft" or coming a distant second behind step-through side-kicks etc...
Respects!
