As I wrote above: right from the moment I started practicing martial arts, in my heart I absorbed the advice: practice martial arts only to keep yourself, don't fight indiscriminately and create bad karma, then bring suffering to yourself.

In reality, in life, not everyone who practices martial arts thinks that martial arts has Buddhist qualities.

In this article, I would like to share what the program editor asked me: "Have you ever felt angry when people said that your martial arts lacked practicality and were not called martial arts?".

We teachers and students are so happy to be walking on the VXNG path.
