Hikari Ryuza® Black Belt

Accepting a Shodan (1st degree black belt) from the Hikari Ryuza Do Kan® entails Giri (a life long responsibility.) Once the Giri has been accepted, the sound has been made for all the universe to hear!

HRDK MAXIM
To be one with the universe. Realizing the minds light from the alpha to the omega.

HRDK MEDITATION
Together we meditate for the wisdom to become better and more honorable Yudansha’s (black belts); to set forth the pattern of standards in the true spirit of harmony, humility, and endurance for the betterment of true Budo (Martial Way).

HRDK DEVOTION
It is my desire to train that I may learn and grow; to train hard that I may progress and understand; To train harder that I may excel beyond any and all limitations through Hikari Ryuza Bujutsu® in the development and discipline of mind, body, and spirit.

HRDK MISSION
To assimilate, then to coalesce and transpond knowledge into the viable is to teach; thus by teaching provide true Budo for all Mudansha (below Black Belt) and Yudansha regardless of style or system.

A Black Belt from the Hikari Ryuza Do Kan® has satisfactorily met all of the standards and requirements established and set forth by the founder, Senior Grandmaster Crimi and the Hikari Ryuza Yudansha Kai ®, and has demonstrated an understanding of the philosophical truths and spiritual forces to be qualified as a member in good standing with all honors, rights, benefits, and privileges that will assure them a strong mental and physical character, and a display of proficiency in skills and leadership in the advancement of Hikari Ryuza Bujutsu® and Danzan Ryu Jujitsu.
