Various but monistic ancient method
From observation of ancient manuscript and from properly dissecting the KATA (form), martial art in olden days should be understood as unitarily functioning of many methods, a monistic and spiritual as a whole, instead of defining its quality to be comprehensive methods. That is, instead of individualized function of aggregated techniques, ancient time martial arts must have had qualities of many technical methods functioned as single movement empowered by KI to host SHIN GI TAI(spirt, technique, body) manifested from metaphysical spiritual realm.
