Gilles Lavigne Kyoshi has been practicing Karate since he was 13years old. His forty-three continuous years of experience in the Martial Artshas given him a unique perspective on the basics and higher principlesof Karate. These principles he shares have been taught to him by somecelebrated and acclaimed Japanese, Canadian and American Masters.He currently holds an 8th Dan black belt in Karate Shotokan and is thefounder and head of the Canadian Martial Arts Association. He also has ablack belt in Chito Ryu style of Karate.Lavigne Kyoshi states that Karate-do is a catch phrase that describesa self-actualization process. He asserts that the Karate life consists ofawakening consciousness or awareness at different stages in our lives onthe Physical, Mental, and Spiritual dimensions. It has been his observationthat self-actualization processes in the Martial Arts, Tai Chi, Yoga andcountless others far too many to mention, have been created to help followersgradually peel away at the different internal and external layers oftheir make-up to uncover his unique 'Self'.The objective of this book as he points out is to guide karate-kas towardsa continuous flow of awakening consciousness and awareness onall levels of their being. One must have clarity of perception in order to havepure intention. Pure intention is the guiding principle to live a virtuous andhonorable life. The book is intended to be as kindof a road map, a guide along a trek and journeythrough a process of bringing together energiesfrom all levels of our being to this focalpoint of pure intention in time and space.This process is called Kime.
