Several of the martial arts, like karate are fiction. Slam somebody on the nose with a palm and bone shards will spear into his brain and kill him, except there is not any bone in the nose, its all cartilage. And every one those recent legends, a ton of them are good for washing the hog, if you have a willing hog.
However, there's a sure science that has proven true in the martial arts. This is the science of how to use geometrical energy potentials. I discovered this field while reading a series of books called the Lensmen Series.
I suppose the first time it hit me was when E. E. Smith, the author, described spacemen fighting on the hull of a space ship. They were hooking their feet under hand grips therefore they would not fly into space after they hit somebody. They were anchoring themselves thus they may apply force, and not have the force dislodge them.
Soon I was swallowed by a universe where weapons created unbelievable geometries of force. A death ray was a beam, and it may be deflected by a well designed shield. And if a protect could deflect, then a shield thrust sideways could slice the first shield apart.
Soon I used to be enraptured by pictures of fleets of space ships making their own particular brand of strategy. Fleets of area ships would form globes around alternative fleets, and cones of spaceships would swallow globes of fleets. Every time a geometry was described, my mind struggled to keep up with the wash of new concepts.
Then, shock of shocks, fleets of spaceships gave way to mental powers. Those self same rods and globes and cones and shields, made real in the intense of house combat, became the stuff of mind to mind encounters. How does one slide your awareness through the grid of another however alien mentality?
And, ultimately, done with the books, I started extending these outer space alien mind combat strategies to the martial arts. I sank my weight and planted my stance thus I wouldn't fly back from my own force. I described cones with my arms, and engulfed globular fists as they flew out of space at me.
Once I tell folks regarding this they typically suppose I am a small amount crazy, or they grasp me a genius. Reading sci fi for inspiration, who would have thought. However, isn't the martial arts an art, and should not it be crammed with creativity and expression and beams of force and mind to mind conflicts?
