crucial question

[Chris05]

did bruce lee mediate

[Adonis]

He might have I Don't know. He was a phyislophy major and related alot of what he did with the martial arts with his philosophy work when he was studying in seattle, washington. Read some of his books and do some research on him to find out.

Why is this question crusial?

Furthermore, why are all of your questions "crucial", "critical", or "important"? I'm sure you could get an answer without making your questions seem so "pivotal" and "vital".

[atalaya]

okay. so are you asking if to be a good martial artist, you should meditate? kung fu was developed as a physical expression of meditation. it had the side effect of being very powerful in defense, so it became a major martial art. roots: it was meditation! can you do kung fu or karate without meditation?> i don't think so. you may trick yourself into believing that kata isn't meditation, but think again! since regular movements are to be applied against someone or something, your imagining an opponent becomes a kind of mediation.

Bruce Lee was NOT the "first cross-trainer". It wasn't ever "taboo" to do that, lots of classical stylists would pull down some supplementary elsewhere. However, the extent to which Lee bounced between teachers was unusual. Read the Tao of Bruce Lee, and honestly there's nothing in it that you wouldn't get from a good classical stylist once you finished with the fundamental part of teaching yourself the movement theme of that art as a foundation.. with the 'get these basics down first' part being the kicker that Lee ran into.
