Ichi_Geki Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Ki is the very power that comes from within. When you are in tune with your ki. Your body, mind, and speech and real techniques will show in all actionsThe part where he speaks of real techniques Sticks out to me. What do you think he meant by that?

RichardZ Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Did he actually use these words, or were they deciphered or translated beyond comprehension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichi_Geki Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 They were translated by Gary gagliardi, Garry Howard Sensei, Seagal Sensei, Stanley pranin, and Kisshomaru Ueshiba.And all came up with very close translations. This was an excerpt from the book "The art of peace" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardZ Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I often wondered how can such translation(s) truly be accurate (no matter the art-teacher) when such language barrier, also to mention, slang-short language, is used over time.For example, if one would to transport a Japanese citizen from this century, back in time to another century, far back, could their actually be total comprehensions?

Ichi_Geki Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 I agree also. So maybe I should ask what would you think of The interpreters interpretation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardZ Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Likewise to many things, interpretation is limited to those upon translation. In many instances, there can be different interpretations even from those within the same group. (Many Buddhist teachings are like this, thus a segaration of "schools") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
