University Karate instructor Bob Graves (foreground)
has been teaching the Eastern art of self-defense for
27 years.
Beginning students learn the fundamentals
of blocking an aggressor’s blow which is a
primary karate skill.

tenants tram ah n ann tram inn acquired
knowledge of the early masters who literally us
ed it for survival. These spiritual elements,
however, have been subjected to misinterpreta
tion and overemphasis by some modern
Western writers. Graves feels.
“IS
XVarate is not mysticism, and though
there are some unexplained things in our
psychic makeup, they’re not unique to karate."
"The individual has a mental makeup that
contains two facilities. One facility seems to be
an accumulation of facts, figures, things, times,
that from birth, as we gain consciousness, we
begin to fill up... in the world of martial art, all
the knowledge that belongs to the intellect can
not in any way help, and so Zen becomes the
ability to free yourself from all the intellectual
influence, so that you can remain as just an
empty human being, and allow the natural
facility to come through. That would be your
more intuitive side, the ability of your body to
react spontaneously."
Training then becomes the application of in
tellectual discipline to the body's ability to
move without thought. Through endless repeti
tion, techniques are embedded in the mind.
"Then one must test one's self to see if they are
well embedded," he says.
The definition of karate in our society as an of
fensive or defensive art differs greatly from that
of Eastern cultures. Graves explains that in the
philosophy of Budo arts, defense means to sur
prise your opponent and render him incapable
of attack. It has been said many times, he adds,
that the Undo arts “have nothing to do with
morality, but rather just getting the joh done,”
and awareness and control of timing provide the
greatest advantage over an opponent. "Whether
it’s a block or a punch or a kick or an escaping
movement, taught or learned individually, they
have neither offensive or defensive nature. For
teaching purposes, you may designate them as
that to satisfy the mind of the student."
"\/\Jhere he finds the most personal
satisfaction, Graves says, is through his involve
ment in the "leading edge" of karate and in
working toward its acceptance as a legitimate
international sport. One of his ambitions is to of
ficiate at the international level and be able to
watch his own students compete. He says, "1
have one student who has made the U.S. team
for the first time this year, and he’ll play in
Yugoslavia at the World Cup. . .I’m trying to
figure out how 1 can go.”
When asked what he would like to ac
complish through a life-long study of karate,
(iraves says. "Say 1 was at the end of my life and
I was looking back... it would be when you
Iwive enough of a trained staff that knows
everything that you can possibly hold in
teresting for them and they have gone past you
and now have arrived at new knowledge from
the base you gave them, and have become more
important in the world than you are.”
“Then you’ve accomplished your mission."
