For me, it is undeniable that in recent years karate has soared in popularity above any other sport. Two factors drive this surge: first, the exceptional power that can be harnessed through karate, and second, the bleak uncertainties that modern humanity faces—uncertainties that karate offers the means to overcome.
After devoting more than 30 years to uncovering the deepest secrets of karate, I have reached the ultimate conclusion that my sole mission in life is to reveal and share this knowledge. It is my duty to unveil the true value of karate through the written word, as this is the most efficient and effective path to achieving my goal. My debut work, What is Karate?, was met with tremendous acclaim. In 1965, after five years of relentless effort, I completed my second book, This is Karate. This work answered the urgent questions posed by karate enthusiasts and instructors from around the world.
Following the success of these two books, I received numerous requests for a concise self-study guide. Karate is my response to that call. Naturally, it is impossible for a small book to cover every aspect of karate, but I have focused on presenting the most important techniques in clear, succinct language, explaining only what is absolutely necessary.
Additionally, I explore the most practical methods one needs for real combat. Anyone who masters the material in this book will wield extraordinary power. I am delighted by the thought that this book may serve as a gateway to pure karate and, in doing so, become a wellspring of joy for many.
