[I:http://www.uniquearticlewizard.com/extras/pics/bowzerimage24.jpg]The second time I slow walked I was putting on a karate demonstration for a couple of hundred kids in Willits, California. At the end of the seminar I noticed a fellow standing at the far end of the gymnasium. He was big and, at a distance, rather ominous.

He didn’t have a kid, so what was he doing at a demo for kids? I began slow walking towards him. I walked slower and slower, and time began to stretch and stretch. It seemed to take forever for me to walk the hundred feet to him.

He was sweating and starting to shake by the time I reached him. I threw out a big grin, introduced myself and offered my hand. Relief bubbled from him as he shook my hand.

The fellow, a lumberjack named Andy, turned out to be one of the nicest fellows I had ever met. He wanted to see Karate, and that was why he had come to the demonstration. He had never seen karate before because he lived out in the woods.

What I had first done to him when we had met was the thing that most interested him the most. It seemed like the world was caving in on him, he later told me. He had almost, he later admitted, lost control of his bladder.

Slow walking is easy to do if you practice a classical karate that has been made true. This means you must align the time and shape of your form, and make sure you know what the moves mean when you translate them into actual usage. If you learn how to do this then you learn how to control your body, and thus you learn to get outside the flesh of your body and experience your true body, which is true bubble of your perceptions.

Time is a measurement of the universe. Time is a perception. To the degree that you can control the universe, you can control time.

You must first enter The True Art, however, by perfecting your art, and then increase your personal magnitude. This all ties in with the fact that if you can control your body, and another’s body, then you can control his perception of time. There is an immense dedication to detail and form and such in this method, but it is, in the end, a simple enough matter.
