Of course there was some instruction in the kyudo class with Kosaka Sensei on how to shoot.
But more than his to shoot, Sensei taught us how to look... How to listen...
'Look with our ears, listen with our eyes'. With instructions like this, from the ancient teachings, we begin our journey.
But more than this his sparse use of words made us listen. The process embedded in the dojo practice lead us to look deeply and subtly at ourselves and how fit with all around us.
It's been done like this from generation to generation for countless eons of human existence, I am so grateful to be included in the next generation...
