karateone Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 My school is particularly christian. the owner requires all his instructors to be born again christians. all the schools in my area are christian dojos.i don't know if there are any budist schools out there. your religion should not interfere with your learning the arts though.

vietdao Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Wouldn't this be a question for your religious leaders, not some martial artists?I agree. You should Probably talk to your religious counsel. They can tell you a little bit better .

patusai Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Wouldn't this be a question for your religious leaders, not some martial artists?Although I don't think it would be a problem as others have said but since you are questioning I think that Krunchyfrogg's answer would benefit you a great deal.

The BB of C Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I was wondering if my religion was buddhism could i still do Martial Arts or not?The Buddhist monks invented Kung-Fu if I remember correctly and in Japan, the majority of the Samurai were Buddhist. So I'm sure you can do martial arts if you wanted to. It all boils down to what you believe. I'll leave you with that because I don't know enough about Buddhism to say much more, I may say something disrespectful. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido_man96 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 if I remember correctly and in Japan, the majority of the Samurai were Buddhist.The Samurai class began to incorporate some of the Buddist teachings into their training because they admired some of the mental and spiritual aspects of the training. Buddists didn't become samurai, the samurai became Buddists. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yingampyang Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I was wondering if my religion was buddhism could i still do Martial Arts or not?Yes i see no problem in it , Buddhism concentrates on the spritual side of things just as much as MA does , so i think it would be a good mix. I think that there is no 1 style , and that to truly become a great martial artist and person you must take information from where ever you can.
