Teaching class in a dojo has many restrictions.  The lesson has to be brief and concise. It has to fit within a certain time span and cover the information most necessary for the technical level of the class at that moment; and it can't be a rambling monologue.

None of this allows for much in the way of in-depth thought, comment or discussion of critical philosophical matters; ergo this blog.

So, we'll see just where this effort takes us.
