“Martial virtues”, including “Benevolence, Righteousness, Etiquette, Wisdom, Creditability, Seriousness and Valiancy”, are not a slogan; rather, they are the norm which a martial art practitioner should observe. They are literally a concept and an attitude toward martial arts in living, and essential to being a “man”!
