The Effect Of Spectacular Fiction On Martial Arts!
Many of the martial arts, like Kung Fu are nothing more than fiction. Pop somebody up the nose with a palm and bone shards will spear into his brain and kill him, except there is not any bone in the nose, its all cartilage. And all those old legends , a lot of them are good for not much more than washing the hog, if you feel like washing the hog.
But, there is a certain science that has proven applicable in the realm of the martial arts. This is the science of how to apply concepts of geometrical energy potentials. I discovered this field while consumed by a book series called the Lensmen Series.
I suppose the first time it burst upon me was when E. E. Smith, the author, described spacemen fighting a wild battle on the hull of a space ship. The spacers were hooking their feet under hand grips so they would not fly off into space when they struck somebody. They were anchoring themselves so they could apply force, and not have that very same force act against them.
Soon I was totally immersed in a universe where weapons created incredible geometries of force. A death ray gave forth a mattering splattering beam, and it could be deflected by a well built shield. And if a shield could deflect that beam, then another shield used like a disk could slice the first shield apart.
Soon I was seeing entire fleets of space ships creating their own particular brand of strategy. Armies of space ships would form globes around other armies, and cones of spaceships would swallow globes of entire armies. Each time a geometry was described, my mind struggled to imagine the wave of new concepts.
Then, shock of shocks, fleets of space rockets gave way to the exercising of mental powers. Those same rods and globes and cones and shields, made real in the extreme of space combat, became the stuff of minds battling minds. How do you shift your awareness through the grid of another mentality, especially when that mentality is utterly alien?
And, ultimately, having read the series of books, I began extending those outer space alien mind warfare strategies to my chosen field of the martial arts. I sank my weight into deep horse stances so I would not fly away from the projection of my own force. I described cones with the movements of my limbs, and went after globes of fists as they flew out of space at me.
When I tell people about what has inspired me in the martial arts, in my study of karate and kung fu and shaolin and such, they generally think I am a bit crazy, or they know I am a genius. Reading sci fi so as to use weird concepts in the arts martial, who would have ever imagined? Yet, both fields are art, and should not art be brandishing creativity and expression and beams of force and mind to mind conflicts?
