Overview

The Three Lives of a Practitioner, is a chronicle that I put together, of a cross section of my life. Why the hell do I want to do this? Maybe this crossed your mind. I don?t know. I think basically, it's because I want people to know what is going on in the world out there, behind the veneer they constructed. Oh, some know but only a minority.

Everyday there's things that happen that bring on painful conflicts to us. We could be part of some one else's conflicts.

My advice for you is, (If you can), run like hell. In my case, my senseis or teachers, Mr. Yamanoha and Mr. Hayashi taught me, (whenI was R and R on Okinawa and later Japan during the Korean War), options that I can use if need be.
