The True Facts Of The Dim Mak Killing Strike
When I began studying the martial arts, it was a brand of karate much like shotokan
, I was fascinated by the tales of one punch one kill. The idea that you could drop an opponent with one punch was absolutely fabulous! And that you could actually kill somebody with a karate strike, well, that was more than just a TV show, you know?
Then, along came kung fu and the concept of dim mak, the idea of killing with a simple touch of the fingers. Man, now this was something, and I know it doesn't speak well of my maturity, but, man! To actually just touch someone, with a fingertip, and have them drop dead, cowabunga!
We trained hard in our desire to make these killing philosophies a reality. We did our ritualistic dances and endless calisthenics and techniques and spent endless hours punching the bag. Oddly, the more violent we practiced in the training hall, the more peaceful we were once we left the training hall.
Finally, I grew old, over forty years in the arts, and, finally, I began to understand some of this one punch, or even one touch, kill ability. I discovered that it wasn't in the muscles and the bones. No matter how hard, strong, fast I got, you see, there was something missing.
The missing element was the simple fact of Intention. Intention is the will to do something, the desire to make something happen. Consider it an invisible line between the having a thought, and and the accomplished reality of that thought.
Watch a fight between two MMA fighters, they bash each other for a few rounds, and nobody falls down. The moment one hits the canvas, however, you have seen the first real punch of the fight. The other punches were just trying but not achieving. They were generated by thought, but they never had sufficient oomph to reach completion, reality, actuality.
So, how do you gain the ability of the dim mak death strike of karate legend and kung fu mysticism? Don't make your arm tight when you strike, for tense muscles slow the intention, lock it up, stop it from reaching the reality. Forget that the opponent is real and in front of you, and thrust your fist, or place your finger, through the space of his body.
Now, I have told you the truth, and perhaps you can find training methods that will help you implement what I have just told you here. The odd thing is that when you finally realize the truth of this strike, you will not have the lack of compassion to use it, and you will find that the ability translates into methods of living that are far superior than just killing. In the martial arts it is the knowledge behind the technique that is valuable, not the martial arts technique itself.
