Philosophy.
The TBCI Philosophy and Technique go hand in hand. They are mutual to one another and should not stand in isolation. Philosophy should not be confused with religion. The TBCI does not align itself with any form of accepted religion. Students are encouraged to study Philosophy as a vehicle to help one on the path of understanding and as such covers a multitude of subjects all pertaining to the study of Martial Arts.
This page allows you to access Philosophy Papers written by both Kancho Alfred Bates Judan Hanshi members of the TBCI. They are papers design to stimulate the thought process, to help you on your journey of understanding.
They are presented here as free and open documents for you the reader to do with as you will. However they do have copyright and as such we request that they do not form, directly, a part of any document you may wish to construct yourself. It is hoped that they will give guidance and inspiration to the reader as you follow your own personnel path towards self enlightenment.
