LEVEL COLOURS AND CORDON

 

WHITE
(Pure/Cleanliness)

Underneath the black uniform and the rank that is received, it is only a 'skin' to differentiate rankings but in reality what is hidden is a soul that is pure and clean, fighting only because of loyalty and filial piety and a sense of responsibility for what is carried.

Not for arrogance or pride that needed to be flaunted just to cause the disease of the mind. Many have fallen in the middle of the journey because of this disease.

'Black is the shadows underneath those that are pure and clean,.... and white is the guide that his underneath the shadows. Therefore, what is exposed does not necessarily mean success or victory. and what is hidden is not necessarily mean being in the dark. For truth and purity of any art, it must be upheld through sacrifice and perseverance, not for personal victory..., because it is to broad to achieve in a short time.'
