In
regards to Shifu Nagaboshi's certification(s), that
you denounce as false, it so happens I do
have a legitimate copy of his certification.
This came out of the Ryukus back
in 1967.
To
those who may want to believe otherwise: this
document is perfectly legitimate and
authentic.
But
why should Shifu or anyone show his certificates
to you? Why must he or anyone give you
proof of the identity of his teachers?
You've
got to be very gullible to believe that a qualified
teacher of Budo of 30 years needs to prove himself or
herself by showing his certificates to unqualified
students or hanging them on a wall
for all to see..
In the
West this is not good form, less so in Japan or among
Japanese or Okinawa-trained budokas.
If you
can't trust the man from his actions and his
teaching, are you going to trust him from his
certificates should he demean himself to show them to
you ?
And
are you trying to tell us that Nagaboshi learnt all
he knows (and once taught you) from books? And
it took you 12 years (or 6) to find out you were
learning nothing?
What
martial artist in his / her right mind is going to
believe that?
Do you hear Japan laughing ? I sure
am!
So,
what's the next allegation?
