The Psychophysio Touch of the
Angel
By Soke Dan R. McEaddy
Since the beginning of time on planet Earth, man
has developed many different fighting arts; each art unique in its
own way. In my notes, transcribed March 7,1966 at Bushido School of
Self Defense, Great Grandmaster Ronald Duncan Sr., in my opinion,
the Father of American Ninjutsu, stated in that lecture, "As no
nation has a monopoly over the Sun, Moon and Stars, no nation has a
monopoly or claim over the martial arts." It gives me great pleasure
to introduce to some and remind others where the fighting arts truly
originated and who has the monopoly and claim over the martial arts.
To begin with, the martial arts did not originate on planet Earth.
It began where the first war was fought, and that was in Heaven.
The Archangel Lucifer developed a rebellious spirit and was
transformed into the "Red Dragon." Many angels fell and
followed the Red Dragon and the war began. God's angelic army led by
Michael the Archangel, fought against the Red Dragon and his
stripped angels now known as demons. The Red Dragon and his army
were defeated, kicked out of Heaven and migrated to Earth.
{ King James Holy Bible, Revelation 12th Chapter }
The war did not end by the Red Dragon being defeated in Heaven. A new war emerged on planet Earth, with the creation of Man and Woman. The mission of the Red Dragon (Satan) and his demons were and is to destroy all of God's creation, which is good.
There is a man by the name of Abram. He was the leader of a nomadic tribe which evolved and became a great and mighty nation. Abram's love for God was the key (ki. chi) which empowered him with power.
A Teacher Appears
There was a man whose name was Melchizadek. He was the
Teacher of Abram. Many theologians are puzzled, past and present, on
who this man was. Melchizadek first is noted to be a King, king of
Salem, which is king of Peace. Some people believe He was the
Infinite Intelligence. Others believe He was the Anointed One sent
to Earth to anoint God's chosen. Then, there are others who believe
that he was a High Archangel on a mission to teach man how to
organize his life and become one with God.
It is my belief that Melchizadek taught the prophet the fighting and
touching arts which were to prepare them for battle against the
spirit and followers of the Red Dragon. These fighting secrets were
passed on to Abram and his descendents.
King David wrote in Psalms 144:1,
"Blessed be the Lord my strength which teaches my hands to war
and my fingers to fight." Did David know the Touching Arts? Doesn't
that sound like the words of a Martial Artist?
The Foundation
Everything begins in mind and everything begins with a
thought. This is known as Psychogenesis. Whatever you can conceive
in your mind, and believe in your heart, you will receive in your
hand. In other words, expectation with positive belief will become
your experience.
Blessed be the Lord my strength which teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight.
In the Angelic System, we believe that the strike of a finger should be equivalent to the blow of a fist. Great emphasis is put on hand and finger development through stone viceing and hydro exercises. Insperexperational exercises (breathing) is also part of the Angelic practitioners ADL (activity of daily living).
The First style of touching in the Angelic System
is known as Ostiological Combat. Ostiology is the study of
the bone structure. This is the foundation of the structure of the
human anatomy. We study the bone structure from head to toe. Within
the study of ostiology, there is another study known as
Arthrological Combat. Arthrology is the study of the joints.
Chin-a, JiuJitsu, Akido, Hapkido, etc., are all branches of
Arthrological fighting. As the Practitioner studies the bones and
joints and understands how these bones are connected to the
ligaments and cartilages, his understanding of techniques will be
greater. In any touching art, the study of ostiology must be pursued
first.
The Power of the Eye
It is the job of the Teacher to help surface that which lies
within the innerdepth of his / her students. Through prayer,
meditation and fasting, the student becomes empowered to see himself
as he truly is. As his faith increases in his higher Power (God), he
becomes empowered with great strength and power far beyond the norm
of the average individual. As the Practitioner's level of faith and
confidence increases, he or she becomes as the angel- - Higher than
the average man or woman. He is known by his fellow angels as the
Cando Man / Woman. "I Can Do" all things through my Higher Power
which strengthens me. The angel knows that fear is the mind killer
if not properly channeled.
" For God has not given us the spirit of fear but of power and of
love and of a sound mind." [ I Tim. 1:7] If you are faced with a
situation where someone is much larger,stronger, and uses his pitch,
tone, and resonance to intimidate you, you are almost bound to
develop fear. Remember fear is the mind killer if not properly
channeled. Psychogenesis opens your spiritual eye. Empower your eye
to be transformed into an x-ray. Through your study of ostiology and
arthrology, you will be able to see his bones, cartilages,
ligaments, and all joints. You will understand better what you are
looking at and why the techniques work. All guessing is alleviated.
His flesh becomes decomposed. All that exists is his bone structure.
The application of techniques now becomes simple because of the
power bestowed upon you.
Remember that true power comes from no one. It is a gift that is given to anyone who seeks to know The Way. ( Tao-Do )
