Binary Matrixing introduces the Martial Arts as a science. It is the single most important book in the history of the Martial Arts, as it opens the door to all martial arts, and moves the student directly towards the realization that all martial arts are one. The yin yang symbol, most people believe, is a mystical thing that you will someday understand, or if you buy into theories like 'sun and moon,' or 'male and female,' or any other number of mystical definitions, then it is simply a mysticism, a 'mystery,' reserved for somebody smarter. But Binary Matrixing defines the yin yang in a definitive and scientific manner. This definition results in the Martial Arts being considered a science. Once somebody understands the yin yang, which is to say they understand the actual truth of the martial arts, they will be able to see how the martial arts 'grow,' how they develop from one art into the next. The Martial Arts then become a simple technology requiring as much thought as 'one, two, three....' Finally, understanding the truth of the martial arts, and how they actually develop, one will be enlightened. Enlightenment is often thought of as a 'lightening stroke,' a realization that changes the way one views life. And it can be that way. More important, however, are the thousand and one 'little things' that make sense out of life, that make life into a single, absorbable subject. As stated, this book is the most important book in the history of the martial arts. It will elevate the reader to an entirely different viewpoint. It is not, however, for everyone. If you believe the martial arts are mystical, if you think that people can't understand a body of knowledge without suffering for twenty years, if you believe that people must learn a foreign language to learn the martial arts, or any other long, laborious and intricate theory, then this book is not for you. This book was written in the belief that the truth is simple, and that studying the truth of the martial arts will make the arts easy to understand, easy to remember, and intuitive to do.
