Not only participating to the contests and seminaries carried out in the aforesaid period, but especially by training itself sometimes privately in various Dojo, we realize better  the importance of the home environment’s Okinawan martial,  with its psycho-spiritual and social-institutional aspects, to the aims of a more and more incisive increase and an equilibrium. It is comprised moreover that the discipline –not by now more pronounced word in the western world- with the duty and the self-control, no doubt helps to overcome its limitations, in addition to the exquisite human relationship of the Okinawa’s society, which then leads to the fraternity therefore to the stability and inner serenity.

The greatest Masters, such as Minoru, Kotaro, Nakasone, Itokazu, with their style to face the life in positive way, inciting to the detemination and willingness to catch up new objectives constantly, even if sometimes it will be hard times, above all when the age is left over.

It is with this frame of mind and perseverance that we become the great men, also and above all outside of the Dojo: a training psychic and social invaluable personal growth.

This combination is identified in the most conspicuous religiosity, always present in the  “Tokko” of  every Dojo ( in which they come represented  “shinden” and the defunct Masters), where it intimately evidences that there is no separation between life and death, being two things tied to the daily life; therefore the training always take place under the protection of the ancestors whom they observe. In the Dojo no student, young person or old, is never left alone or isolated. All these aspects, along with a healthy feeding, are important in making the more long-lived and serene life.

Since we have always known that discipline and education broadly speaking they are transmitted primarily by parents, I have no doubt that these great Masters are also a bit our parents.
