Kyokun - Karate ni sente nashi jutsu - 3
Master Taiji Kase gives another interpretation of the second kyokun, in an interview published by the magazine Budo International in July 2000:
"My advice to practitioners of Karate-do is very simple: we must pay attention to what was said by Gichin Funakoshi "Karate ni sente nashi" (in Karate there is no first attack). You must understand this concept so very deep. Both in mind that at technical level. We must ensure that the attacker can mentally understand that it is better for him not to attack, let him feel and he accepts. This is the true meaning of the maxim "Karate ni sente nashi" the opponent gives up his first attack and thus the aggression does not happen. "

Kyokun - Karate ni sente nashi jutsu - 2
The apparent contradiction between the terms Master Funakoshi Gichin "character essentially defensive karate" and "one should never use for offensive purposes" opens the door to another level of interpretation that Master Roland Habersetzer, always in his encyclopedia, introduces: "The first movement, and although the outside may be seen as an initiative to attack, must be conceived as a defense."
Plée Master Henry, in his columns, enlightens us on different levels of interpretation of kyokun and brings together an explanation for the warning "It poses a mortal danger" Master Funakoshi Gichin about aggressive behavior:
"At first level, " There is no first attack in combat real warrior " will inevitably be understood by Mr-all-the-world "Do not attack first." This is because everyone is convinced that "Whoever attacks first wins!". This is not true. This strategy may be valid in some cases ... if the opponent is naive or blinded by his vanity. (...)
The second level teaches the exact opposite of the first level, (...) the first attack only works if the opponent is below us. If we are technically superior (but less mentally) we have a chance to "eliminate" that until the precise moment when he decides to attack, which inevitably provokes an opportunity we can exploit.
You can not touch (or cut) at the distance or the opponent can also affect us (or we cut). You can not attack first if we think have a chance to eliminate the opponent, and that thought is inevitably accompanied by some deconcentration and anticipated some satisfaction. Indeed, the mind can not decide one thing at once: to attack or parry.
The second level is, somehow "wait without preconceived idea that your opponent decides to make the first attack, and attack immediately in the opening thus created."
This is also consistent with the precept of Heiho Kadensho (1600s), which states: "attack without the enemy decided to attack greatly increases the risk of defeat" and adds "put you the distance (ma) where the enemy can not touch your body, but at the distance where you can take advantage of his first unsuccessful attack, which will become fatal for him, because all you need to move any your soul, without reserve and without fear, to undo it immediately. "

Kyokun - Karate ni sente nashi jutsu - 1
"There is no first attack in karate jutsu."
Habersetzer Master Roland, in his encyclopedia of martial arts, provides the basis for the definition and initial interpretation of this kyokun ;:
"Second twenty rules of Gichin Funakoshi, one of the most famous, engraved on his memorial stone at high Enkakuji temple in Kamakura." There is no first move (attack) in karate " . This award (Kaisetsu) sums up the attitude that needs to be basis of the practice of karate like martial arts (Budo) in general. "
Master Funakoshi Gichin insists on this notion in his book Karate-do My Life My Way :
" I have always insisted, in my teaching, the essentially defensive karate. It should never be used for offensive purposes. "Watch your words," I wrote in one of my first books, "because if you're bragging, you will create many enemies. Remember the old adage that a strong gust of wind can uproot a large tree while the willow bends and passes the assault of the wind. The cardinal virtues karate are humility and prudence. "That's why I teach my students to always be alert but not aggressive. (...) Some of the younger, I must say, do not understand my attitude: they believe that karate should be used when circumstances require. I try to point out that this is totally despise the true meaning of karate. This is not just a game It poses a mortal danger. Can we afford to risk a life without thinking already so short? "
The details of the Master kyokun show that this is far from being a pacifist precept, but it must understood in a sense of efficacy research ( "always be on alert" ), in a context that is not the sport of karate ( "not a simple game" ), but well that the preservation of life.
We find this notion of preserving life, not pacifism, in The Book of Family Traditions of Yagyu Munenori (1571 - 1646), Shogun's master of arms, which begins by quoting a saying inspired the Tao -Te Ching: "According to an old saying," Weapons are instruments of evil, that despises the Way of nature: from the Way of Nature, we should use it when we can not avoid it. "(...) Why weapons are instruments of evil? Because the Way of nature is the Tao, which gives life to beings, therefore, an instrument used to kill only can be that evil. "
No pacifist idealism indeed when one reads the following:
"However, it is also said that the use of weapons to kill - at least when it's inevitable - is also part of the Way of nature. What does that mean? The flowers bloom and the greenery thrives when the spring breeze blows, but at the onset of autumn frosts, invariably, the leaves fall and the trees wither. It is the law of nature. It may therefore come a time when we must break down what needs to be. Some benefit events to commit evil. When evil occurs, it must be fought. Therefore, it is said that the use of weapons is also part of the Way of Nature. "

Being constantly Listening to global worries, it will divert our attention to events more enjoyable. We need this time to make sense of things, the world faces with its two theatrical. Tragedy and comedy. It is the same books, we abandon momentarily exiled writers and distant wars to revel in the entertaining read from the novel by Rachel Laverdure Flesh and bronze.
Four people are arrested by a massive bronze statue erected in a park. An elderly man sitting on a bench tends a rose to a woman standing beside him. On his lap rests an open book. The sculpture plot or indifferent. It is part of the cityscape near Laura, a divorced woman in her forties. She lives with her daughter, Amanda, thread between Laura and her ex-husband, Eric, remover works of art. Laura runs a small business of breaking dishes that allows customers to unwind at low cost. For men and women try to resolve their problems, dreams of seducing Laura David, employed in a hardware store. She succeeds, but the inconvenience it will reveal the true nature of the young man. Laura let her perilous journey to identify Malorie, teenager, who lives with his parents and brother. His mother, having put in his head to see her daughter become a famous pianist, forced him to take courses which interest absolutely no Malorie; it occupies her time between her friends, her lovers, her studies. She spotted the bronze statue and, believing himself misunderstood, she slips out of tickets in the old man's outstretched hand. Until a blue ticket meets their white slips. The risk is great, but Malorie can not help going to rendezvous with a stranger ... Shortly after the danger to Malorie, we meet Eric, the ex-husband of Laura. He loves his daughter Amanda, his new flame, rich and divorced, Helena. Versatile and multifaceted, they disperse, complies with the demands of people that frequent family as foreign, as if his life depended on it. Opportunist, he feeds his insatiable curiosity about the complexity of human beings. However, deep down, sleeps a disturbing dilemma: Who Is the son, his mother why she abandoned him at birth? He too was struck by the bronze statue to whom he feels "rather benign indifference. One day, he is responsible for the move on the forecourt of a building. Viewed from another angle, the statue is a troubling question to Eric about man and woman within it. Eric let his introspection, enter the apartment and Nadège Rosary sexagenarian mismatched couple. He is plebeian, alcoholic and tyrannical. Obsessed with sex. She, intelligent, cultivated, on the lookout for new cultures. Dependent on a demanding husband, she dreams that he dies, her guilt despite the abhorrent thought. Nadège out with his girlfriend widow, Colette, with whom she can discuss everything. Often they go together to the movies, attending museums. Fading memory of Colette reserve an amazing surprise to Nadège; her friend being allowed to carry a man, Fulgence, who will fill his absence, calling itself "blower words, indulgent to oblivion. "Gradually, Nadège realizes that Fulgence is far from displeasing him and devises a secret rendezvous. He will discuss the bronze statue of the sculptor whose name amazes Nadège. Fulgence conduct a thorough investigation whose outcome pinking a wonderful horizon Nadège.
well-crafted novel, ably led by Rachel Laverdure. We suspect that the protagonists are not strangers to each other, fairly common romantic process. If we consider that history is divided into four parts, the Nadège and Rosary is the most touching, most original. The role of the girl Malorie seems agreed, even if the girl makes several useful elements to the plot. All four are walking in their personal quarters, stumbling on misunderstandings legitimate whenever the statue, triggering specific reactions in them: the unfulfilled sexual desires of Laura, the speculation of Eric tormented, repressed regret Nadège. Beneath a thin, often delightful, the novel is part of a gravity that enhances the reflective thought of the author. It never fails to drag fierce humor where the reader captures a meaningful idleness. Entertaining reading, provided some smiles, writing a vocabulary enriched abundant and defined.
Read to enter quietly into the New Year holiday, the compassionate heart of the torment of beings of flesh, statues magnet surrounded in mystery, apparently insensitive to human grunting ... But who knows?

Sensei Morio Higaonna tale
"Bokuden, grand master sword, one day received a visit from a colleague. To make her three son to his friend, and show the level they had achieved by following his teachings, Bokuden prepared a little trick: he wedged a vase on the corner of a door sliding, so it falls on the head of him who enters the room.
sitting quietly with her friend, both facing the door, Bokuden called his eldest son. When he stood before the door, he stopped short. After the door ajar, he picked up the vase before entering. Closing the office behind him, he replaced the cup before going to greet the two masters.
"This is my eldest son, said Bokuden smiling, he has already achieved a good level and is becoming the master."
The second son was called. He slid the door and began to enter. Dodging accuracy of the vessel he nearly received the skull, he managed to catch the flight.
"This is my second son, he explained to the host, it still has a long way to go."
When it was the turn of the youngest son, the latter rushed and received heavy vase on the neck. But before the vessel does not touch the tatami, he drew his sword and broke in two.
"And this one," replied the Master, is my younger son. It's a little ashamed of the family, but he is still young. "

Exile, thirty years later *** 1 / 2
A little girl with a book pressed against her, hiding in an attic, lurking in the reeds at the edge of a pond, to read in peace. The "big people" are unwilling to admit his desire for solitude - a child five, six, should not be alone. The girl loves to tell stories inspired by writers who will be his first friends. Later, his love of writing and reading will not dry up. With a critical mind, she will address this qu'écrivent peers. Today, she focuses on the story of Kim Thuy Ru.
Another little girl has waited thirty years for us to share his memories of before and after his exile. She was born in Saigon during the Tet offensive, that is to say, one day before the lunar new year, one of the Monkey. The offensive is the most important battle, and most deadly Vietnam conflict in the American presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson. Terrorized by the Communists, entire families flee, using means precarious and sordid. The girl, Kim, has ten years when, with his wealthy relatives of South Vietnamese, she Bourlingue in the hold of a boat. Over two hundred people are crammed on top of each other. first wave of boat people. Most will be collected in Malaysia in a refugee camp. Following this terrifying ordeal, Kim Thuy describe the fear that clutched at each crossing the Gulf of Siam. The Communists at their heels, promiscuity prevailing among fugitives, a light bulb hanging from a nail, only light touch to what the girl clings. After several months of the ultimate downfall, the survivors will be sent to Canada. Having no other choice but to adapt to the North American life, the girl will lose the floor momentarily. In Granby, it is Jeanne, "our fairy shirt and pink tights with hair stuck to a flower," which shall it. Music and dance returns to the wounded body of Kim flexibility. The circular movements of the arms and legs seemed to Joan "wall washes, stir the air. "Thirty years would pass before chugging Kim can put an order in circumstantial his memory as his bruised body.
It is inevitable that Kim Thuy speaks for itself before returning mentally and peacefully with his family. His mother, legalistic, began to "reinvent" fifty-five, his father lived comfortably carefree in the moment "without attachment to the past. His grandparents, aunts and uncles. Sao Mai's cousin from whom the narrator is always the shade. There are mainly two children, Henry and Pascal. Thus, from past to present, memory wavers from one side or the other. Intermingling of faces, familiar or foreign, all bearing the name of reconciliation after As the years have softened the suffering of the young woman, attenuated its disappointments. His youth gave him the irrepressible desire to start a new life. As is débobinent as the tragic events of that time, the author recalls the people who helped her survive. Mr. Ming, who studied literature at the Sorbonne, who survived a reeducation camp. Through his generosity, she discovered "the purity, the power of writing. Madame Girard, Granby, which had hired his mother to her household, unaware that it " had never held a broom in his hands before his first day of work. She also refers to a server in Hanoi, accusing him of being carried away by the American dream. Superb lesson in humility! Mr An, formerly professor and judge, became autistic, the victim re-education camps. To the young woman, he learns the nuances. Kim Thuy's family was saved by many people, the youngest to the oldest, the author tells us clearly, specifying rarely extant them an immense solidarity.
Later, Kim Thuy will be going back and forth between Vietnam and Canada. Without excess, with modesty and sensuality, it depicts men loved incognito birth of the child to her aunt in September, the disability of his son Henry, his reunion with Johanne first lost friend, who had reached out in arriving at Granby. Apart from these stories moving, sometimes funny, takes memory fragmented, tormented, the author recounts the dangers of communism, the indescribable courage of women in her country, the details of his feelings, memories of ephemeral gestures. Different features poignant roam the turbulent wakes telescoping author and the reader almost blown so the words are just unveiled at barely audible. The writing is rooted in the lightness of childhood, its seriousness in improbable adventures. Kim Thuy had to relearn everything, both French and English, Western thought, how to eat, work sometimes miserable, she lived in opulence family.
Shards of life, exalting the poetic dream, to constantly reconcile what was, what will be. Two worlds transients, strong and fragile, often interchangeably Kim Thuy, eloquent in the wilderness until the grounding in a relaxing oasis, then left show the folly and wisdom men.
It was mentioned that the book Kim Thuy Ru - rill French, Vietnamese lullaby - was awarded the Governor General's Award 2010 and the Consumer Price Press Book Fair in Montreal 2010.
