Be good


"Just practice good, do good for others, without thinking of making yourself known so that you may gain reward. Really bring benefit to others, gaining nothing for yourself. This is the primary requisite for breaking free of attachments to the Self." - Dōgen

In the dojo we strive to maintain an atmosphere of good, as a student of budo, do good to your fellow classmates. When you're outside the dojo strive to do good to those close to you, especially those you may be meeting for the first time or those whom you dislike. This is the samurai way.
