Know Your Enemy, Know His Sword.

A Bullet From A Gun Does Not Make A Distinction Between Practice And Combat. You Are Training To Be One And The Same Way In Your Life

As If With The Nut And Flower, The Nut Has Become Less Than The Flower... Both Those Teaching And Those Learning Are Concerned With Colouring And Showing Off Their Technique, Trying To Hasten The Bloom Of The Flower.

Do Not Let Your Spirit Be Influenced By Your Body, Or Your Body Be Influenced By Your Spirit. Be Neither Insufficiently Spirited Or Over Spirited. An Elevated Spirit Is Weak And A Low Spirit Is Weak. Do Not Let The Enemy See Your Spirit.

In Strategy Your Spiritual Bearing Must Not Be Any Different From Normal. Both In Fighting And In Everyday Life You Should Be Determined Though Calm. Meet The Situation Without Tenseness Yet Not Recklessly, Your Spirit Settled Yet Unbiased.

If You Are Not Progressing Along The True Way, A Slight Twist In The Mind Can Become A Major Twist. This Must Be Pondered Well.
