[QUOTE="Lannon, post: 696081, member: 7171"] [b]philosophy[/b] ugh. I suppose that is where I got confused. However, I am having some trouble figuring out what you mean by "ideas of anatomy and the way the body works are being embraced as truth in a cultural exchange between eastern and western sciences." If you are talking about doctors practicing western style medicine and submiitting their findings to journals then by all means I would agree with yoiu. However, I do not think that western scientits are looking to ancient martial arts to expand their knowledge of anatomy. What exactly do you mean by that statement? This is amazing. You really think that the snake is "just a snake," in that story. If that is the case then why does Musashi make such a strong generalization based on the encounter? It is Musashi that makes the generalization based on the snake. He is apart from the world now, because of his training in the martial arts, and wishes that was not so. The encounter with the snake is symbolic, in my reading, of exactly this disconnection. I already stated that my observations were not strong evidence. Again, I made no attempt to pass off my observations as more than they were. These were my own thoughts based on some of the encounters I have had with MArtists. If you check the nature of my posts you will find this to be true. This is not true. You have steared this off course. I originally stated that education could be a viable alternative that may help you avoid violent conflict due to its affects on your wage earning potential. All of these things related to showing that education can do exactly what I have suggested is directly related to discussing my point. Then you are the one responsible for topic shift not me. If you were not interested in discussing the actual opinion I expressed you should have been honest enoiugh to say so and stopped responding. [/QUOTE]
