DAILY SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! - (Psalm 133) , (Commentary) Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. - (Philippians 2:1-5) , (Commentary)
PHILOSO PHICAL THOUGHTS by Sempai Samuel Cockburn
"Do not be quick to look down on a person because their poverty is evident, neither be anxious to highly esteem a person having knowledge of their fortune or success. In the Way, a person is only filthy rich if the one has a perfected character or very poor if the one has not at least a good character". "For every bad that's done to you, do two good deeds. How else can we overcome the injustice in this life without turning our quest for justice into vengeance, malice, hate, or lack of trust. Ultimately being consumed by and transformed to that which we try so hard not to become". "Every object which delivers Ichi geki, Hissatsu or a powerful blow, should be tempered to endure the same, in order to wtihstand destructive forces. This is a truth of Kyokushin Karate. Hence, a conditioned body and spirit is a necessity". "The ultimate karate-ka is not the one that has only mastered technique over time and gained exceptional skill; But the one who has also polished his/her character through the rigor of hard training and spiritual enlightenment".
