Selected Cultural and Historical Aspects of the Development of the Samurai Ethos with Several Comments on Martial Arts Typology
Journal Title: Security Dimensions - Year 2018, Vol 26, Issue 26
Abstract
Modern budo master Fumon Tanaka demonstrates that the spirit of the old samurai Bushido code has survived to this day. Martial arts have become part of culture, and they are perceived with the reverence befitting science. He also reminds us that the beauty of being a warrior lies in the constant readiness to make the greatest of sacrifices. In common parlance, however, there is no difference between how martial arts are taught to students, how combat sports are taught to athletes and how police officers and soldiers are taught close quarters combat, as well as there being no difference in results between these types of training.<br/><br/>
