The following is the creed we recite before and after Chinkon (seated meditation).<\/p>\n

\nSeiku<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Rely on yourself, and not on others. No one is as reliable as your own well-disciplined self.<\/li>\n
  2. By committing evil, you defile yourself. By avoiding evil, you attain purity.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \nSeigan<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. In acquiring this Art, we pledge to honour our founder, and not to betray our masters; to respect our elders, and not to slight the young. As comrades, we pledge to help each other, and to co-operate for the accomplishment of these teachings.<\/li>\n
    2. We pledge to leave our past aside, and to devote ourselves to mastering the Art as plainly and naively as infants.<\/li>\n
    3. We pledge never to perform our Art for selfish reasons, but for the benefit of all mankind.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \nChinkon (seated meditation)<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

      \nShinjo<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. We are grateful that we are endowed our souls from Dharma, and our bodies from our parents. We endeavour to make every effort to return their blessings.<\/li>\n
      2. We love our country and determine to better the welfare of our people.<\/li>\n
      3. We love justice, respect humanity, observe courtesy, keep the peace, and determine to be true and brave.<\/li>\n
      4. We strive to master the Art and discipline body and soul. We love our comrades and help each other. We co-operate and endeavour to establish an ideal world.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
