The
basics are very important in Taekwondo. They are the startpoints
and the ends of Taekwondo training. At the beginning few
people can understand the significance of the basics. If
you learn Taekwondo in right and exact way you will understand
every high level skills are mere variations of one basic
skill and what makes the one basic skill able to change
to various brilliant skills is a really simple factor.
The basics are the hard, the boring and
the trivial. Only after they've gotton the higher level
of TKD they begin understanding their implications. In this
case they rebegin the basics again wasting much time in
correcting almost everything.
But the wise people can avoid this mistake,
following the elders' advices even though they cannot understand
why. What leads you to this wise choice is the respect for
the antecedents. Only the respect makes the people be able
to follow the wisdom of the elders.
