Words that have Greater Meaning |
|
Danjun
|
Ocean field of ki. Your
danjun is specifically an area in the lower abdomen.
It is referred to as the motivation for all movement.
Without danjun movement, you will be off balance and without power.
It is the center of the body. It
is often though of in Korean culture as the meeting place for the powers of
the earth and heavens. We learn
about extension by beginning with the danjun; it is the base from which your
energy extends outward. Your ki
is generated from the danjun; it is only the beginning of understanding power,
balance and extension of ki. |
|
Do
|
"The way;" to be one with the will of the universe and to embody its
function. |
|
Dojang
|
"The place of enlightenment,” a place where a "way" is
practiced. It is derived from the Sanskrit Bodhimanda,
the place where the ego self undergoes transformation into the egoless self.
|
|
Hap
|
"Harmony;" unity to join or become one with.
The word carries the feeling of strength and power of natural forces. |
|
Hapki
|
Blending of ki. All elements of
the universe arise through the blending of positive and negative ki;
practitioners of hapkido attempt to harmonize their ki with that of their
partners and that of the larger environment. |
|
Ki
|
“Vital energy;” spirit of life force; the essence of universal energy.
Ki is the life force that is in and all around us.
It is the consciousness of nature.
It is in all aspects of our lives and it is central to the
understanding of hapkido. |
|
Mudo
|
“Martial way;" the way of the warrior, but the deeper meaning is the
way of the protection of society, of strength and honor in peace. |
