I believe that Holyness comes not from the religion itself (whether islam, christianity, Buda, or whatever), but more from what you come to believe with your soul, and how you develop those beliefs. Radical islamic terrorists believe that the koran will lead them to inner peace and heavenly gifts on the otherside through killing infidels. Any religious education can be misconstrude and twisted into haterid and evil if the student allows themselves to be fooled by someone elses beliefs. Inner peace is the goal, and getting there is about the journey itself. Giving of ones self truly is the gateway to finding this peace. Being totally unselfish and doing for others can create a glowing aura that has the ability to lift you up in ways that only you will see and truly understand. Martial arts give the student the tools and abilities to do just about anything in the physical world, and the ability to find ones true reason for life and being here on this Earth. Achieving this level of enlightenment is what makes a true champion in any martial art. Good luck reaching your goal whatever it may be, and have fun getting there.
