The Six Characteristics of Shorinji Kempo

Image
Todays T-Shirt choice reminded me of the Six Characteristics of Shorinji Kempo. Ken Zen Ichinyo – Body and the mind are one. Riki Ai Funi – Strength and power should never be separated from compassion. Shushu Koju – Defence comes before attack.  Fusastu Katsujin – Defend and protect without killing.  Goju Ittai – Use hard and soft techniques together, in balance. Kumite Shutai – Pair work is fundamental.   And Live Half for yourself, Half for Others. http://bit.ly/mo_custardcat That is all.
