YoungMan Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I just brush it off. No sense getting into trouble by reacting to a finger or words. One of the hallmarks of a warrior is the ability to control emotion and not get set off by words and gestures. There is no martial arts without philosophy.

bushido_man96 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 In my line of work, I get that kind of stuff all the time. I just don't even worry about it. In the past, I would retort with a like reaction, but anymore, I don't even let it concern me. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinote Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 I think it's a really good excersize when someone does this. Our mental state is like our muscles, it requires practise. What an opportunity to see if we can keep our cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BB of C Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 The last time someone gave me the finger, I grabbed it and bent it back until they appologized. They never did it again as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeet Kune Do Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I just brush it off. No sense getting into trouble by reacting to a finger or words. One of the hallmarks of a warrior is the ability to control emotion and not get set off by words and gestures.Well, i would never stand idly by, I would teah the foolish one manners, but i would keep in control so as not to hurt the fool., It would hurt me alot on the inside If I walked away thinking that its no problem, I have done this before and I felt hurt and I stayed up at night thinking about it.So now I Deal with it....Face to Face... A drop of sweat spent in practice is a drop of blood saved in a battle.A person who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the man doing it.
