The source of human weakness is internal, not external, hence our journey
should become inward, not outward. I believe that karate, when learned
properly, can be one path which leads to this realization. Captured by the
essence of introspection, it becomes possible to discover the inward location
where all of our battles should be first fought and won before we are
empowered enough to live in harmony with nature and other, hence, improving
the living of our daily lives.

To me this is the message that should be caried away from this tradition and
into the surrounding community.
