Criminal tragedies in the first minutes of the New Year 2019, reinforce the seriousness of conflict in the real world. Securing life, liberty, and property requires training founded upon reality, where consequences matter not only for individuals but society as a whole.
In 1928, Kenji Tomiki wrote a letter expressing the superiority of aikijujutsu (aikido) to the sport of judo for the arena of ‘shinken shobu’ where edged weapon combat with live blades determines life or death.
Reality based martial training, properly oriented on self-governance, must do away with a sporting mentality and focus on protection against armed aggression.
