“The iron hand on the benevolent
heart”. The hand symbolizing strength
is an iron hand. The heart symbolizing
love is a benevolent heart. The iron
hand is formed by training, the benevolent heart by thoroughtly understanding
the way of martial arts.
Whenever one place a hand over the heart to salute, a Vovinam Viet
Vo Dao disciple must remember that whenever using martial art always couple it
with love. It means that using martial
art to warn, to convince and to enlighten others, not to punish or to
retaliate. Martial arts is always imbue
with the way.
Besides, when we put our hand over our heart, we also think that we
are a part of the same humanity. We all
have the same heart, coursing with same blood.
We have to love each other, to protect, to support, to encourage in
order to work for the benefit of family, the country and humanity...
