Happy birthday JB! :cheers:

 

And now some words from Master Kan and Master Po...

 

Perceive the way of nature and no force of man can harm you. Do not meet a wave head on: avoid it. You do not have to stop force: it is easier to redirect it. Learn more ways to preserve rather than destroy. Avoid rather than check. Check rather than hurt. Hurt rather than maim. Maim rather than kill. For all life is precious nor can any be replaced. -- Master Kan

 

He who knows how to live need not fear death. He can walk without fear of rhino or tiger. He will not be wounded in battle . . . . In him the rhino can find no place to thrust his horn, the tiger no place to use his claws, and weapons no place to pierce . . . . Because a man who knows how to live has no place for death to enter. -- Master Po

 

. . . there are two kinds of strengths. The outer strength is obvious: it fades with age and succumbs to sickness. Then there is the ch'i, the inner strength. Everyone possesses it, too. But it is indeed much more difficult to develop. The inner strength lasts through every heat and every cold. Through old age and beyond. -- Master Kan

 

All creatures, the low and the high, are one with nature. If we have the wisdom to learn, all may teach us their virtues. Between the fragile beauty of the praying mantis and the fire and passion of the winged dragon, there is no discord. Between the supple silence of the snake and the eagle's claws, there is only harmony. As no two elements of nature are in conflict so when we perceive the ways of nature, we remove conflict within ourselves and discover a harmony of body and mind in accord with the flow of the universe. -- Master Kan

 

Listen for the color of the sky. Look for the sound of the hummingbird's wings. Search the air for the perfume of ice on a hot day. If you have found these things, you will know. -- Master Po

 

Vengeance is a water vessel with a hole. It carries nothing but the promise of emptiness. -- Master Po

 

In one lifetime a man knows many pleasures: a mother's smile in waking hours, a young woman's intimate, searing touch, and the laughter of grandchildren in the twilight years. To deny these in ourselves is to deny that which makes us one with nature. -- Master Kan
