"One Can Give A Blind Eye To The Bad/Wrong/Evil Words, Actions & Deeds Of Lost People Only When Their Words, Actions & Deeds Are Not Affecting The Body, Mind & Spirit Of Others Negatively/Destructively" - Sensei Michael Rajchandra

"Always Remember That, It Is Only The Warrior Who Has Given His/Her All To Defend Himself/Herself And Protect Dear Ones Wisely, Ethically And Morally, Using All The Non-Violent, Non-Offensive And Purely Defensive Means, Methods, Tactics, Strategies; Spiritually, Mentally & Physically Possible AND YET FAILED (Because Of The Obvious Lack Of Skills, Knowledge Or Wisdom etc.), Who Is Actually The Only One, Who Has The Right To (VERY UNFORTUNATELY) Resort To Defensive-Offensive Or Worse Purely Offensive Means, That Might Even Result In The Death Of The Attacker... And So Is The Only One Who Can Confidently And Justly, But Not Proudly, Justify It...." - Sensei Michael A. R.

"Just Because A Person Talks Philosophical Things , That Does Not Automatically Make Him A Person Of Good Character, A Spiritual Person Or A Real Martial Artist" - Sensei Michael A. R.

There are many Martial Combat People, who occasionally preach some Philosophical Thoughts and many times even quote a lot of words of Real Martial Art Masters of the past, just so that they can fool people into believing that they are wise old school masters of martial arts...

But even then, being Philosophical does not make anyone Spiritual or a Good Human Being who
# Strives to Perfect his Character,
# Practices Compassion, Forgiveness, Sacrifice, Love and Respect,
# Gives his all to live a Moral and Ethical way of Life
# Practices the Divine Art of Peace.
# Etc.
Which is a Must to become a Real Martial Artist.

Fortunately observing their everyday speech, actions, deeds and choices that overflow with Arrogance, Selfishness, Self Centeredness, Materialism, Hedonism, Substance Abuse, Corruption, and Inclination to wards Violence reveals their True Hidden Self...

There are many such Fight/Combat Instructors who are good at using spiritual and philosophical constructs (that they have got from either their own Culture/Family/Teachers, or Martial Art Books, Movies, Online Websites, Forums, Videos etc) that they Preach but unfortunately themselves don't connect with it.

But better talk about more well known Examples
Bruce Lee
One of the world's well known Fighter, Martial Combat expert who was made larger than life through his movies, and who is also known for a lot of Philosophical & Spiritual Talk (Most of which he has received from his Rich Asian Cultural Legacy) which is opposite of what he was in his real life filled with Street fights, Challenges, Arrogance, Cockyness, Bragging, Showing Off, and not to forget Substance Abuse.

Mas Oyama
He is the best example of An Insecure Fighter who has been wrongly labeled as a Martial Artist.
A spurned revengeful person who went from Dojo to Dojo Challenging and Fighting other Masters, is far from being a Spiritual Person.
Interestingly one can even stumble upon philosophical mumbo jumbo attributed to him.

In order to understand who is who and to protect yourself from being fooled, conned or misled into believing false Public Images of such people created for obvious reasons, one must first get a clear understanding of various aspects, concepts of Martial Arts Philosophy, Spirituality and Life.

How Training In Martial Arts Protects One's Relationships From Being Murdered

All Rights of Graphic Belong to Respective Owners, No Copyright Infringement Intended

The Beauty of Martial Arts is that its various Philosophies don't just Help with Conflict/Dispute Resolution or just Defending/Protecting ourselves from Attacks in a Fight or War, In Fact The Teachings of our Enlightened Warriors/Masters, are an Ultimate Guide and Protector our Relationships with Others-> Family - [Parents, Siblings, Relatives, Spouse], Teachers, Friends, etc too...

Seeking 'PERFECTION OF CHARACTER' which is considered the Ultimate Goal of a real Martial Art (Eastern Philosophy) as taught to us by many including the founder of Shotokan Karate Do, Meijin Gichin Funakoshi​ helps protect our Relationships from being Murdered...

Because It is by the perfection of Character that one Will
# Be respectful to Others
# Be Faithful & Loyal with Others they are in a Relationship with
# Endeavor to Maintain the Health, Quality, Wellbeing and Life of the Relationship with Others
# Refrain from Violent Behaviour with Others
# Have no ATTITUDE, Bad BEHAVIOUR, EGO towards Others
# Always Listen to Others Be Attentive, Compassionate, Understanding, Empathizing, Constantly Learning about Life, etc. that will protect One from making countless mistakes out of IGNORANCE.
# Have Integrity, Will Be Honest, Selfless, Sacrificing, Forgiving, Never Hurt/Cheat Others and so will never have any hidden agendas to derive HIDDEN BENEFITS
# Above all, One is always ready to Identify and accept One's faults, Mistakes, Failures and be ready to face the consequences of one's actions.

Thus no matter how difficult it is, we have to Seek Perfection Of Character in order to be as supportive and constructive and protective to our Relationships with Everyone...

To conclude, I would like to say from my experience of life that, if I was trained in Perfection of Character much earlier in Life and not just punching and kicking, I might been a better and more sensible person and may never have messed up so many of my relationships with others!!!

"The Real Mental And Spiritual Strength Of A Warrior Comes From The Fact That He/She Is Never Afraid Of Being Alone, Pain or Death" - Sensei Michael A. R.

This is an Empowering Context for all to meditate on...

For a Warrior To be Mentally & Spiritually UnHurtable, Unbreakable, Unfazeable and Indestructible He/She must

• Never be Afraid Of Being Alone, Pain or Death

and the above is achievable only when a Warrior:

• Has the Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Survival Skills/Knowledge/Wisdom to Live Alone.
• Is Totally Physically, Mentally & Spiritually - > Independent, Self Sufficient, Self Reliant
• Realizes That One's Peace & Happiness Come From Within And Is Not Dependant On Others And Other Things To Be Happy.
• Not Afraid Nor Averse to Discomfort or Pain 
• Understands, Respects and Accepts the Design of Life their by losing all Afraid of Death.

Martial Art Training: Objective 1 - Taming The Homo Sapien In Us

THE WAY THIS DOG OWNER HAS ABSOLUTE CONTROL OVER HIS DOG

IN A SIMILAR WAY, THE INNER HUMAN BEING (SPIRIT) OF A MARTIAL ARTIST MUST HAVE COMPLETE, ABSOLUTE AND EXCLUSIVE ACCESS AND CONTROL OVER HIS/HER EXTERNAL HOMO SAPIEN (BODY AND MIND)!!!

As Meijin Gichin Funakoshi has said that Karate-Do(As in Martial Art) is about "The Perfection Of The Character Of Its Participants", Thus Martial Art Training Has To Be About The Training Of The Homo Sapien In Us, Cause Its Only When One Is In Complete, Absolute, And Exclusive Control Of His Homo Sapien, Only Then Is One Able To Possess and Exhibit Perfect Character (Which Is A Perfect Amalgam of Discipline, Obedience, Respect, Modesty, Humility, Loyalty, Selflessness, Generosity to name just a few).
