In Latin: Si vis pacem, para bellum ; it says: "pray for peace, prepare for battle"; that in its self, is what might be needed to have peace .As I am a Christian Martial Artist practicing a warrior Art of Peace. One can have a peaceful life, most of the time we create our own problems. The pacifist and the warrior both seek peace and fight for it, in different ways.

Pray for peace and then practice. Slow to anger, strong faith, well disciplined, courageous but stay humble.

Love is the greatest of all practices; it is a hard practice that will take a life time to seek its perfection of (love). The JOY of good practice, knowing what is right, and not getting tired of doing it; seeking the perfection of what ever you are doing is a great practice.

The power of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the strength behind the action; as practitioner of Martial Arts you are
just the instrument of God, a child of God, and you must act like it.
