Thank you.
How is this ethical and philosophical tradition represented in your dojo and your own practice? How does this manifest outside of the dojo, or does it? How is this passed on to students, how is it taught?
No reason that "How" and "Why" need to be mutually exclusive in any practice. But do we actually do this?
