The Meaning of Tao - XIII

Injury should be recompensed with Kindness.

[True bu-do; karate-do is also a dual endeavor where one side of the coin is destructive and the other is healthy. We as practitioners should work to learn both sides of the coin. By learning how to heal the body and mind we find that this study provides us the insights into using the same for destructive  purposes, i.e. combat against predatory evil intent on doing us and our tribe harm and where no other avenue is still available to avoid conflict. This is the meaning behind the myriad things of the Tao-te-Ching, that of karate-do.]
