Really? I don't believe so, Duncan Stewart was feeling danger about an earthquake, which finally was for real. Look at this blog: https://tazziedevil.wordpress.com/page/2/ Dean Winchester, I already answered your question. If you want more details, look for them. Chadderz, how smart you are. Thank you.
No you didn't, you answered one question. The second I asked was slightly different. So what is sakki, what does the sakki test assess? It sounds like you are a little confused to be honest and are mixing things up a bit.
Like I said: "I felt like goosebumps in my body, and simply moved. I didn't took the choice, was only my instinct of survival." For me that is sakki. The instinct of survival that all people have. I comes when you don't think, just feel the situation. I don't lived the sakki test because I never took it. I had the chance to experiment with shihans about when you think and what you submit, and when you stop thinking, but is all I can write. Keep in mind that I have no rank, so ideas may change in time. I only wrote what I lived, as the original question asked.
"blog" is not synonymous with "proof" or indeed "scientific paper" - also worth noting as he mentions "2000 years" as justification for clinging to archaic notions he is pretty much toast as any kind of authority or clear thinker What you described is 100% a standard visceral function of a body under stress that has nothing to do with sakki - read up on it
THE FORCE OF THE KILLER During a later training season, one of the students asked the master in a polite tone: "What do all these personality aspects has to do with fighting?" Hatsumi sensei smiled warmly. "They have to do with not needing to fight". There was a momentary pause while we contemplated the comment. "There are certain types of conflict where you might not even realize that you have an adversary. You would not even have a chance to fight. How do you fight a sniper armed with a silenced rifle? How do you fight an assassin who stabs you unseen from behind? How do you fight the man who rigs your car to explode when you turn on the ignition?" The teachers present kept their gaze on the master. They seemed to know the answers. The rest of us shifted around uneasily and looked at each other with questioning glances. Hatsumi sensei broke the silence. "There is no way that you can fight him." It was not the answer I had been hoping to hear. "Since you cannot successfully fight this adversary, you must learn to protect yourself in other ways. The ninja refines his perceptive abilities to a level higher than most humans, and becomes sensitive to input from sources in addition to his five physical senses. The ability to perceive what we call 'premonitions of danger' takes the ninja to the fifth of the nine developmental levels. "An attacker, whether man or animal, puts forth his harmful intentions as a sort of vibration or thought impulse. Just as we say that sights, smells, or sounds are things, we can also say that thoughts are things. The ninja refers to these thoughts impulses that accompany harmful intentions as sakki (the force of the killer). This sakki is there to be perceived, regardless of whether or not we are sensitive enough to pick it up. "When you are sensitive enough to detect this intention of harmful action, you can fight back by simply not being where the attack will take place." Extract from the book "The Ninja and Their Secret Fighting Art", by Stephen K. Hayes.
Two questions: 1. Have you taken the sakki test? Interested as you say you have no rank. 2: You mention "kyojutsu", did you mean that, or did you mean "kyojitsu"?
I disagree. On many occasions I have got home late from the pub and had this unexplained feeling of dread as I open the front door.
That's just a lousy memory or you would have remembered what happened last time and the time before. And the time before that. And the.............
“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.” ~Buddha (563-483 B.C.)
