A person's HEART is the same as Heaven and Earth. The first tome of the ken-po goku-i. [Note: I was using both tome and pome until I found that pome is a fleshy fruit…giggle har har …]
In the Chinese book of Life it speaks of heaven, earth, man, etc. to include many references to "heart." In one particular instance it mentions heart with consciousness in parenthesis. Do they refer to man who is an alert or in an alert cognitive state where they are fully aware of themselves, their situation; both internally and externally?
Do they mean and does the ken-po goku-i mean that a person (man) must practice until they achieve a connection and rhythm that parallels that of Heaven and Earth. Referring to this book and its inferences to the I Ching, which is used for divination or shall we say fortune telling, can we imply that our practice in Isshinryu will be a singular form that transcends the mere physical allowing us to achieve the intent of the styles creator?
The section of the book of life makes a direct reference to Heaven, the creative, as one dark line which enters and becomes master with the result that the heart (of man/person consciousness) develops in dependence on things, is directed outward, and is tossed about on the stream. It goes on to reference the "light" which also means energy which we can imply to being "Chi or Ki energy." It tells us that we circulate the light (energy) within us (man/person) in order to achieve a level with Heaven and Earth.
Shall we contemplate this as a part of the intent when studying these terse tome's of the I Ching called the ken-po goku-i? I know I will!
