"One thing has always been true: That book ... or ... that person who can give me an idea or a new slant on an old idea is my friend." - Louis L'Amour

"Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider..." - Francis Bacon

"What is true today may be reevaluated as false not long after. Judgements are frequently based upon a set of "temporary" circumstances surrounding them. Conflicting ideologies can exist simultaneously. Antagonistic dualities are complementary aspects of a unified whole: are seen as mutually dependent mirror images of each other." - Nahum Stiskin

Kenpo Gokui

The lines of the ken-po goku-i are set from an atomistic aspect simply because it is the manner in which the brain learns. Its nature is completely holistic and like the I Ching must be in a form that promotes learning and understanding so a person can see, hear and grasp the nature of a holistic system. The gokui is a method to teach us how to be holistic. Its terseness is the best that can be done to convey its holistic meaning.

A person's heart is the same as Heaven and Earth while the blood circulating is similar to the Sun and Moon yet the manner of drinking and spitting is either soft or hard while a person's unbalance is the same as a weight and the body should be able to change direction at any time as the time to strike is when the opportunity presents itself and both the eyes must see all sides as the ears must listen in all directions while the mind must grasp all the tactile, olfactory and gustation data not seen on all sides and not heard in any direction

Reality

How things appear to a person in relation to all the experiences they have had up to this particular moment in time. It is a state of being actual or real or the state of the world as it really is rather than as you might want it to be. It is a quality possessed by something that is real.

Then again, "What is real?"

Is reality simply a "state of mind?" Is our perception simply that which can be seen, heard, felt, tasted, etc.? Is reality nonexistent outside of our ability to see it, etc.? What I mean is that we may really be energy that is floating around emptiness much like the "matrix" and our reality is determined by what our minds produce as influenced by the Tao.

The Tao is that huge computer program of the Universe of which we are the bits of energy that run around its emptiness and as our energies touch one another it produces a program unique to us as single bits producing what we all perceive as the world, the heavens, the sun and moon, the Universe and all that it "appears" to contain.

What is truth, reality, genuine? What it is, our perceptions according to all that we have experienced in this life and all of our past lives; in this moment and all of our past moments!
