Definately something to think about when practicing Budo ! Speed can be good when in combat, but for the most part speed in practice and in life detracts from the meaning of the exercise or the meaning of existance. Often, we have students arrive into the martial arts and they want to know how long it will take to obtain a black belt. Their minds are focused on the time not on the experience or the knowledge.
Or, students show up to class and hurry through the lesson not slowing down enough to appreciate the inner essence of the learning. First things first. If you want to learn Budo, really learn Budo, you must slow down. You must calm down and focus. You must slow down in order to let Budo connect to your soul. If you can do this then your Budo lessons will stay with you for your entire life. If you can't then they will disappear into the fog of meaningless activity.
