For the first time in our country, an attempt has been made to summarize the personal experience of the author, who devoted most of his life to the study of the theory and practice of martial arts. Original materials concerning the psychophysical training of martial arts adherents are provided. Moral issues are touched upon, and the philosophical origins of karate-do, which originate from the teachings of the Buddha, are traced. Even according to the most detailed textbook, you cannot become a karate master. For this you need a Teacher. Then what is this book about? About what you cannot become a master without. The author has been seriously and in-depth studying oriental martial arts for many years: karate, judo, kung fu, dim mak (the art of delayed death). The book covers all stages of training in karate - from the basics to the highest mastery, including Dim Mak and no-touch strikes (energy strikes). Encyclopedic publication in three volumes.
