14June2010

The Memphis Iaido club continues to train in Iaido trying to keep the art pure. It seems hard to do when the Federation comes up with statements such as .....Now this is what is new this year.....

When training with my Sensei in Japan, Nagagaki Sensei of Shin Minato Iwakuni, he told me something that I pass on to all my students. That is...NEVER PISS ON A SAMARAI'S GRAVE.... This has a strong meaning... So many Samarai's died perfecting there techniques in battle. Today we do not use swords in battle. What right do we have changing the techniques handed down to us when we do not test them in battle?

In todays world of corrupt governments and psycopaths, the problems are found ,even, in small federations. Favoritism, who you know and ego's determine promotions in todays society.

Power, money and control dictate.... the way. This is totally repulsive.

The problem with our country (SHEEPLE) seems to be the same problem with the federation. I feel sorry for those that follow us. We the sheeple are allowing so much to be lost. We the sheeple are destroying the fabric of what life really is. We feed into the lies, control and manipulative ways. We continue to give them what they want, money and our time. We believe the lies and discard the truths.

I have vented.
