 | Tendai Mikkyo is a total system of self-actualization made up of methods for quieting and centering the mind. |
| Mikkyo is a solitary practice, not a religion. |
| Mikkyo instruction, in general, takes place between Teacher (Sensei) and Disciple (Deshi). To undertake a commitment to a specific Teacher is to form a Karmic Link with that aspect of the Lineage known as Tendai. As Deshi, we are striving to authenticate the oral teachings as passed down over the ages in a protected fashion. |

| Is Mikkyos kuji-in the same as other martial arts? While it may be enticing to properly compare the borrowing of lineage-based Kuji-in teachings amidst a variety of martial arts, both modern and ancient, my own limitations prevent me from even commenting to a learned degree on the question. |
| Mikkyo by definition is an orally-transmitted lineage body of teachings, practices and interpretations of Japanese Buddhism. |
| Without a sanctified initiation (or kanjo) within the specific method to be transmitted, traditional mikkyo theory is that the method, although understood and practiced in good faith, is of shallow efficacy. |
