Martial Arts & Religion

Das chinesische Modell beschreibt Phänomene, das westliche Modell erklärt sie. Im Idealfall ist man in beiden Modellen zu Hause.

Glaube, dass muss ich mir merken und öfter mal zitieren.

Interessant im Kontext - religiöse Sprache als Erklärungsmodell für die Praxis am Beispiel des Yagyu Shinkage Ryu:

"Much has been written about the supposed connection of Shinkage-ryu swordsmanship and Zen, especially given the close relationship between Yagyu Munenori and Takuan Soho, author of Fudochi Shinmyorku, Taiaki, and Reiroshu, essays about the psychological and philosophical aspects of swordsmanship/combat. A good deal of Heiho kadensho is also written in "Zen language" as well. In fact, however, according to Yagyu Nobuharu Toshimichi, the 21st-generation headmaster of Yagyu Shinkage-ryu, these documents use Zen terminology and constructs because the subject matter is so abstract and difficult and Zen was one of the very few systems that had language sophisticated enough to deal with it."
