EMPTY HAND - KENEI MABUNI KARTONIERT (TB)

The Lifework of a Grandmaster of Karate Budô is the path of the Japanese traditional martial
arts. Mabuni Kenei has followed this path for almost eight decades until now. He belongs to the
last masters taught directly by the founders of modern karatedô. The son and heir of Mabuni
Kenwa - the founder of Shitô-ryû - has acquired a deep understanding of the essence of Karate
as a Budô art during his course of life. He communicates this extremely complex knowledge to
the reader in a vivid and fascinating way. For this purpose he uses his own memories and
experiences  technical descriptions  historical and philosophical considerations  legends and
anecdotes of the lives of famous samurai and budôka (masters of sword fighting  aikidô 
Okinawa-te and karate).  For the beginner the book provides an idea of the inexhaustible
possibilities of budô as a school of life  and the experienced practitioner will find numerous
stimuli for his further development and also for his own teaching activities. "This book is a
message from a forgotten but precious past  it is an invitation to follow the path of the
'accomplished human being'  which is the true path of karatedô. Sôke Mabuni even goes beyond
this path by making connections with Buddhist  Taoist and Confucian spirituality. May his
message be read and understood." (Hanshi Roland Habersetzer).
