Karlfried Graf Durckheim Quotes

Archery, Fencing, Spear Fighting, All Of The Martial Arts, Tea Ceremony, Flower Arranging ... In All Of These, Correct Breathing, Correct Balance, And Correct Stillness Help To Remake The Individual. The Basic Aim Is Always The Same: By Tirelessly Practicing A Given Skill, The Student Finally Sheds The Ego With Its Fears, Worldly Ambitions, And Reliance On Objective Scrutiny - Sheds It So Completely That He Becomes The Instrument Of A Deeper Power, From Which Mastery Falls Instinctively, Without Further Effort On His Part, Like A Ripe Fruit.
