"Sword practice has no inside, no outside. Action in stillness, stillness in action. These are opposite sides of the same coin.
"This reality reflects the world of opposites that are karma bodies are subject to. There is only one coin, this coin is the Buddha Mind, and Sword cuts off the internal dialogue created by the self, shich craves subject and object. On this stillness and action there are no opposites; this is the intent and volition of Zen Sword practice."
