As taught and trained from a young age, thee Martial Arts are all about enlightenment...
As taught and trained from a young age, the short sword techniques are about grace and balance...
As taught and trained as an adult in the immortal words and wisdom of Sifu H.A. Diop:
"One never needs to defend one's honor in the Life...unless, YOU allow this to be or to become compromised!"
As having become a learned man and having ascended through multitudes of mind, body, and spiritual exercises, practices, and experientials within the presentation of everyday life...
Namasté,
~Frater Dokteur Kheti
