There are times in life when it seems as if you have read someones mind. Maybe you just blurt out the same sentence at the same time, or have the same thought on a place to eat. Sometimes, however, it is as if you have looked into somebodys actual thought process and know what they are thinking.

The martial arts enhance this procedure, and a good martial art does it fast. Indeed, if you aren’t effectively reading minds after a year or two, there is probably something wrong with your martial art. At the very least, you should look into applying some principles from Matrix Martial Arts and straightening it out.

The first time you realize that you can look into somebody elses mind is usually during freestyle. You intuitively know what technique your opponent is considering using, and, as time goes on, you begin fitting intuitive responses to whatever he does. Many people think this is because of the freestyle, but it is really because of the forms that you have been perfecting in your martial arts.

Yes, freestyle provides the situation where you can realize your abilities, but forms provides the energy and context for developing those abilities. Without forms, you won’t be able to read minds in the martial arts, except on the lowest level. Give up doing your forms, and you are left with fighting, and fighting does not lead to reading minds.

When doing a form one learns how to control their body, making it do things one couldn’t make it do before. Then, one learns that it is the control of the mind that is really enabling him to control the body. Lastly, one starts to understand that behind any action in this universe, there must be a thought.

The universe is nothing but a space filled with objects that float around. Being able to read minds, you see, is being able to predict the path of objects. Predicting the path of objects just means that you start looking further out in space to see them coming.

What the matrixing method of Matrix Martial Art does is organize the data so that one can see beyond the confusion. Matrixing analyzes and handles force and direction, and thus, one can perceive and handle more force and direction. Once one can do this through a practice of the forms in the martial arts, one can begin doing it through all the activities of his or her life.

Want to get a better deal when you trade in your vehicle, or finally meet the girl of your dreams? You can do so if you use matrixing to analyze and handle the forces and directions involved in that activity. And whether you study a form of kung fu, be it shaolin or Wudan or whatever, or whether you study Karate, such as kenpo or Goju Ryu or whatever, you can use Matrix Martial Arts to align it, and to align life itself.
