The gokui touches everything which includes kata. Kata is combat if practiced properly with serious intent yet it is also an alternative to combative aspects of the fighting arts. Kata has a moral, philosophical, and symbolic meaning which are used to provide lessons to the practitioner as to their conduct, to their lives, and to the conduct of life through combat itself.
In-yo or Yin-Yang which in balance provides for the one much like the tomes of the gokui where the gokui ties itself to the singular physical that transcends the physical providing a connection to the non-physical which leads the physical in right behavior.
In is female or the moon while yo is male or the sun which cycles about the earth or humanity providing a balance of all that is connected by the energy of the Tao or what I call the "string" that binds In and Yo or Yin and Yang into the one great "Tai-Chi".
There are lessons to be learned that go far beyond the physical where the focal point of the non-physical leads to greater physical so to let go is to grasp the true balance of the mind-body-spirit into the "one".
