Zen Warrior

Warrior. It is much more than a fighter.

A warrior is a human that dares to stand for something the others do not dare to stand up for. The warrior is the one that has experienced life from many angles and has learned to stop and listen. He has learned to bow his head for something greater than himself, and he has learned that the true master dwells inside of him.

She has understood that wisdom does not emerge from knowledge and schools. She has found that there is wisdom of ageless quality stored inside of her, although it is of a different quality than she has learned and obeyed to.

(picture Caine –Kung Fu movie)

There is a power beyond human comprehension that waits until it decides to move. A warrior has fought outer and inner battles to come to senses and stillness. Daring to dive into this stillness, without really knowing where it leads to, however with the firm trust that there is another layer of life, something that can only very softly be felt.

In a world where balance and harmony is not supported, the warrior has learned to survive. Hard times and hurts, yet he still stands. She has never given up, and now it is time for an evolution. There is something behind the stillness, and it is powerful and all-knowing.

The warrior has learned to listen to it, and is ready.
