"Look at the enemy as if you are looking through him without being to obvious about it. Perception and sight are two important principles in my strategy. Perception relies on intuition. This is developed through practice. Sight is based on the physical ability to use the eyes." -Book of Five Rings - Miyamoto Musashi - Stephen Kaufman Sensei -Translator.
The eyes are an invaluable sometimes overlooked weapon for the Karate Ka. It is one of my favorite because it helps avoid conflict. A bujin that has mastered the stare, can look right through his opponent and paralyze him with fear. One can even do exercises for developing and intensifying one's stare.
Sit in seiza a couple feet back from a wall. Focus with your eyes and look up slowly, then back sraight, then down, side to side and then roll them one direction and then the other, all w/o blinking. Then rest your eyes and repeat, do this for five minutes a day. Then check your stare in 9months or so.
