Kyudo
Kyudo is the Japanese martial art most often compared to Zen. It is a martial art using the bow, but unlike other kinds of archery, the real aim is far more than merely hitting a target. With total awareness of oneself, the spirit of Kyudo is expressed by the term mushin – pure mind free from all distracting thoughts.
