Martial arts, meditation, and Zen are hot topics in today's age. The compilation of essays here attempt to connect these practices and ideas together to elucidate their concepts for those not involved in such practices, and to augment the understanding of those who are. Although martial arts, as their very nature should be, are geared towards giving people a skill that will help protect themselves and their loved ones, the objective of such practices must adapt to these changing times and cater to the internal and spiritual element of the human being. Incorporating Zen philosophy and meditative practices, we experience a profound shift from our ordinary self- centered ego-mindset to a holistic meditative consciousness that not only transforms our own life, but enriches the lives of others.
