The Twenty Guiding Principles of Karate: The Spiritual Legacy of the Master This book is a "must have" for anyone's martial arts library. It should be required reading for any martial arts students or masters. It could easily have been titled, "The Twenty Guiding Principles of Life". Ginchin Funakoshi, the founder of modern karate brings several of his philosophies to life in this short book. As students in the martial arts frequently become discouraged by a self-perceived lack of progress, proper insight into the reasons for continued practice can reinforce their confidence. Most of these principles can be applied to life in general. Being aware of what we are doing as well as why we do it is perhaps one of the most important lessons one could learn. Master Funakoshi breaks these lessons down into 20 easily digestible sections. This book is an easy read, but don't be fooled by its size. It is packed with wisdom and concisely presented.
