About This Quote

The Hand (Kara-Te) is the cutting edge of the Mind, a concept that is a part of the ancient writings of Japan. In Japan, the Hand is often called a sword. Because it can cut through anything, this symbolizes the courage and power of the mind. The fact is that the power of the mind is its ability to cut through anything. In any situation where we find ourselves faced with a challenge or obstacle, we must use our mind as a weapon to cut through those problems and obstacles.
