武道は禅である。武道は型を練ることで稽古するため，必然的に今ここにある自己の身体と呼吸に意識を集中する。禅，特に坐禅も同様に，今ここに坐っている自己の身体と呼吸に意識を集中する。心はしばしばさまよう。今ここにある（今ここしかない）自己存在を確かに実感する一つの手段という意味で，両者は等しい。
Budo is zen. Budo is practiced through polishing kata, and inevitably, during the practice of budo or kata, we concentrate on our own body and breath that exist here now. Equally, during zen, especially zazen, we concentrate on the body and breath of ourselves that sit here now. Our mind is often wandering. Both of them are equivalent in the meaning of one of the ways to truly realize the self-existence that is only here now.
