why is it some people never get the gag and give the joke away immediately? :rolleyes:
I don’t get it…

Few know the true essence of the spiritual.
Not sure what you mean by that, but ok. Not all things are meant to be understood, some things are simply designed to confuse those of lesser intelligence.
In other words, I’m naive!
It can be understood
If you know what it is you are hoping to understand. Do you seek to become the Judo Fist? Do you seek the mind of the tiger spiritual? Do you seek the mind of the dragon spiritual?
The tiger of the mind is the spiritual of the essence of enlightenment is the dragon of the mind is the essence of enlightenment of the spiritual. 
remember this:
that that is is that that is not is not is that it is.

It’s like the feeling you feel when you feel the feeling you never felt before!:eek:
“remember this:
that that is is that that is not is not is that it is.”
it’s a common trick used by English teachers to demonstrate punctuation. It was even used in some movie in the 60’s I think.
That, that is, is. That, that is not, is not. Is that? It is!

The tiger of the mind is the spiritual of the essence of enlightenment is the dragon of the mind is the essence of enlightenment of the spiritual. [/QUOTE]
The thing about it is that I don’t know what those things are and I have not yet found out how to obtain that knowledge.
The Judo Fist is cultivated through the training of the spiritual. In order to acquire the mind of the dragon spiritual, one must become the Judo Fist. True harmony of the mind of the dragon spiritual with the mind of the tiger spiritual brings about true knowledge of the true essence of the true enlightenment of the true spiritual. The glorious spiritual courses through the Judo Fist uniting the essence of Wudang, Shaolin, and Ninja into the essence of the mind. The essence of the mind of the Wudang Shaolin Ninja is the spiritual of the Judo Fist.
After this occurs, General Tso holds a banquet in honor of the one who has achieved this feat. It is held in a forbidden temple in the Kunlun mountain range. Cover charge is $20 per person. If you bring two or more guests, $15 per person. Noisemakers and cone hats are distributed free of charge behind the temple gate. I think that should demonstrate how generous I am.

Not only have you tarnished the reputation of my commune, but you have insulted Grandmaster Andy, Sensei Hoyle, and every student enrolled in our organization. You painted a caricature of myself, and you’ve thereby insulted Grandmaster Senseis Takeshi Ukeno and Chan Tai San.

The behavior in your establishment has disrespected these masters much more than I ever could
[QUOTE=The Xia;783826]Jokes of this nature can be harmful. Word spreads quickly. If what you posted is indeed false, I suggest you tell us the truth to repair any damage that may have been done to Grandmaster Sensei John Takeshi’s reputation.[/QUOTE]
Xia, it is the truth, I swear to the tiger spiritual
[QUOTE=Daniel09;783833]How do you even render 4 ninjas unconscious with one move? 
[/QUOTE]
A butterfly twist with the intention of the tiger spiritual will render anyone unconscious it knocks into.
[QUOTE=SenseiShellie;783880]Hey John,
aren’t you Mega-Foot?[/QUOTE]
and mega_fist
look up mega_fist, you’ll be pleasantly delighted, oh and last but not least, he was briefly mega_warrior
John,
I don’t mean any disrespect to you. You have lost your way. Get rid of the students that are corrupting your program. This is the only way to gain back respect for Judo Grandmaster Andy, Takeshi Ukeno, and Chan Tai San (10th dan Tai Shing Pek Kwar)
LOL!! Just as I suspected. WHen is the great reach around kumite???
[QUOTE=bodhitree;783532]Location: Shaolin Ninjitsu Commune, 5426 Crenshaw Blvd, behind Crenshaw Yoga & Dance
After traveling a long distance and providing my credentials Grandmaster Sensei had his students perform a background analysis. When the results came back I was invited inside the dojo to train.
Grandmaster Sensei himself was not running the class. The gentleman who was suggested “let’s warm up with a game of grab ass”.
“Grab ass, I’m not familiar with that” I said
“Just sit and watch the first round” He replied, “it’s simple enough, you’ll catch on”.
So I sat in the corner.
‘Grab ass’ was just what it sounded like. A bunch of guys dressed up like ninjas (no women were there) were running around, hands cupped, trying to grab both cheeks.
This is very odd I thought to myself. Nevertheless I thought the real Shaolin Ninjitsu must be comming soon. I wanted to learn the deadly art. There are people who need to die.
Time goes on and finally Sensei Hoyle suggusts a new game. He calls this game “grab ass with a reach around”.
Sure enough the game is exactly as it sounds. Sensei mentioned that there is a rule, you must have the ass cupped in order to reach around. They invited me to play, and my response was “no thanks, I’m really not into that kind of thing. Perhaps me coming here was a mistake, I’m just going to leave now”.
At that moment Grandmaster Sensei Takeshi walked in and shouted:
“You know what goes on here, you cannot leave”!
“Grandmaster Sensei Takeshi Ukeno and Judo Grandmaster Andy would never approve of this kind of behavior in the dojo” I challanged. He knew it was true. He knew I had studied with both of them. He also knew I learned Tai Shing Pek Kwar from Chan Tai San.
“What are you waiting for, get him” Grandmaster Sensei shouted at his students.
Four of them surrounded me. I then executed a butterfly twist which knocked into all of them and rendered them unconscious.
Just then a large student of Grandmaster Sensei approached. This guy looked like Lurch from the Adams family. He came at me, hands cupped, ready to grab my ass. Luckily for me, Grandmaster Andy (Judo fist grandmaster) had taught me the power of sprint running, and I was out of there.
Conclusion: Somehow Grandmaster Sensei has weak controll of his students and class. It has been infiltrated. I have not lost respect for you, but you need to retake your organization before your reputation is ruined permanently.

Well, for those of you who doubt; the ones who are doubters; the doubters that do not believe because of their doubt, the truth is out:
You’re all liars!
Rose confirmed that nobody has asked to seek the mind of the tiger spiritual.
I dare you to call me a liar to my face, because I’ll be wearing a mask, and when you say “liar”, I’ll cut your noggin off and feed it to the dog (who turned Bootytree’s cot into a toilet—the joke’s on you!)
There is no dragon spiritual, you charlatans! The dragon is the essence of the tiger spiritual; it can fly through storm and squall, swim in the belly of the deeps with leviathans, and cut through brush and bramble with its swath-cutting tail! But can it transcend celestial being to take on mortal shape? No! Only the tiger spiritual is the spiritual of transcendence!
I am Mega-Foot, Sensei Shellie (but that account won’t work anymore because of some fluke—Royal Dragon had it,too. But it’s not contagious). You were once a kind heart and an open ear, willing to forgive some seemingly sexist retorts of mine. Please speak to the others on this forum. I have good intentions, and we share the same taste in movies. Just because I’m Japanese by ethnicity does not make me less of an American. I can’t believe how racist you all are being against me. Especially Lokhopkuen. He posted this just the other day, just before he deleted it (because it probably would have gotten him banned by the moderators, who are my very close mates):
[QUOTE=Lokhopkuen;784030]You’re an opprobrious fellow of a low demeanor, but what can I expect, since you’re asian? I don’t like asian food, mostly because it’s asian. Just because I study asian martial arts doesn’t mean I like asians any more than I do Canadians. In my point of view, they’re both as lousy as the Basques. Did you know the Basques evolved from Cro Magnon Man, rather than homo erectus? It’s no wonder they look like they do, with large occipital lobes and such. Hehehe! I gain much pleasure at their expense. I think this demonstrates how lousy of a person I am![/QUOTE]

So you feel there is only one way to the spiritual? You honestly think that the histories of the Wudang Shaolin Ninja Do Pai given by myself and TenTigers are false? You honestly think that lkfmdc’s list of Wudang Shaolin Ninja Do Pai forms is fabricated? If this is indeed true, why would anyone do such things? Perhaps as a test to see if you are a true Shaolin Ninja? Or is what we post true? Tell us Grandmaster Sensei. We await your wisdom.
I think you’re baiting me to reveal more than I should. Although I am inwardly outraged, and outwardly enraged, I am no fool. You could not get the secrets of Shao-lin Ninjitsu from me though you had a fistful of tacks, a monkey-wrench, a quart of Astroglide, a Siamese turtle, sixteen feet of copper mesh, a cup of laundry detergent, and a an unstable canister of ether.
I think this should demonstrate how resistant I am to your wiles, you willy-nilly Xia-yster.
