"It is something that stops the conflicts between person and person, that contributes to peace and culture, and that has a moral content which expresses the path of harmonious cooperation (bringing minds into harmony and uniting efforts). It never injures an opponent carelessly, seeks conflicts, or seeks solely the goal of winning against an opponent." Moreover, "budo conforms to the above meaning of 'bu,' and is a path to achieving that goal." And, "it is a path that is capable of contributing to humankind's peace and well being."

Doshin So, The Founder of Shorinji Kempo

 
Koans
Zen Koans are short stories that try to convey a hidden underlying moral or principle. Often, they try to show the folly in the way we look at our situations and they try to point to the truth in a way that brings greater personal understanding to the reader than simply a lecture. The stories are colorful and filled with the history of China and Japan.
