Resumen

Cada escuela del arte marcial japonés del karate posee valores y normas especiales, únicas para su práctica. Así, la filosofía del Karate Idokan es similar a la de otras escuelas, a la vez que distinta, en la miríada de prácticas marciales. El Karate Idokan posee una filosofía práctica (es decir, aplicable a la vida cotidiana) influenciada por los sistemas de creencias orientales y occidentales, que sus practicantes internalizan y utilizan en el ámbito civil como formas actuales del camino del guerrero. Este estudio de caso único examina la ética, los valores y las reglas principales del Idokan y, asimismo, detalla su contenido específico y simbólico. A través del método de investigación fenomenológico hermenéutico, presenta un análisis de contenido de la literatura sobre el Idokan, dentro del discurso más amplio de los estudios sobre las artes marciales, realizando un amplio análisis discursivo de estos temas, tanto en estudios científicos como en publicaciones divulgativas. Al hacerlo, las implicaciones prácticas de este estudio son que este no solo ofrece una mirada a la singularidad de la filosofía del Karate Idokan, sino también a la enorme y maravillosa diversidad de las artes marciales. La filosofía del Karate Idokan se deriva claramente de la comprensión que tienen sus fundadores sobre las artes marciales chinas y japonesas, el taoísmo y el cristianismo, y dicta a los practicantes una moralidad única. Tal teleología proviene de valores, reglas y objetivos especiales, que se incrustan en las enseñanzas del Idokan. En la ética normativa, el Decálogo y la nobleza de espíritu (el Homo Creator Nobilis) son lo más importante. El Tao en el Idokan se entiende como la Palabra de Dios, el principio del amor y el camino del cielo (cristiano).
