There is no first attack in karate

The second of the Gichin Funakoshi’s 20 Guiding Principles of Karate: 'There is no first attack in karate'. This principle remind us that karate is for defense only. A karateka will never instigate violence or perpetuate it's development; only, as a last resort, will a karateka use his skill to end a fight. Japanese text: 空手に先手なし (からてにせんてなし); reading: karate ni sente nashi.
