Meijin means a master of the martial arts.
Tatsujin means a "completed human being".
It is very difficult to become a complete human being.
To live as a human being means you are not obsessed with who is weak or who is strong. An animal has to be strong to survive in nature. Humans can live regardless of their outward strength.
This is the most important realisation of the Human Fighting Arts.
To work to be a meijin is to miss the point.
In STMA, we are not trying to be masters of the individual fighting arts, we are working towards being tatsujin, complete human beings.
Be a White Tiger, not just a person "doing" White Tiger Martial Arts.
