When you plumb down to the bottom line of any martial art, past the dogma and politics, past the flowery hands and embroidered feet, you discover that although there are many paths, the bottom line is the same. Anyone who thinks it’s not, they haven’t got there yet.

When you plumb down to the bottom line of any philosophy or religion, past the dogma, past the buildings, robes, and the rituals, you discover that although there are many paths, the bottom line is the same. Anyone who thinks it’s not, they haven’t got there yet.

Truth is truth. It’s unchanging. It’s unvarnished, it’s an uncarved stone, it’s simple, it’s immortal, but hard to find amongst the dogma, rules, robes and ritual.

This is your mission if you choose to take it. Find the bottom line. Find the truth.
