Kyudo...i do not have time to practice this, but as is practiced, archery, on its own, would be hilariously impossible to make contact without destruction: "somebody will get hurt real bad" (Paintball guns, don't laugh too hard, might be a substitude? humor intended).

Kendo/kenjutsu, Judo/jujitsu, or karate/gungfu/tkd/etc all provides a means to work on "mushin" state of mind, to dicipline the ego and fear, to make holistic contact balanced with safety from chronic injury.

This Lounge does provoke thoughtful answers like no other forum.

While i enjoy polishing my mind abd getting my arse beaten during MMA-type sparrind, in a dojo, I would not want to play that in competition, but Kendo seems viaable; howecer, does Keno games promote mushin? (my guess is yes, but be careful)
