With the accumulation of over thirty years of practical Martial
Arts experience the Sr. Grandmaster of American Kenpo Karate Ed
Parker Sr. decided to document and share his findings in a
monumental series of books. Writing with the intent to expound upon
the merits of his American KENPO Martial Arts system, he wrote of
it's many facets as, "a discipline, a way of life, a philosophy,
and an art and a science." With each book intended to offer a
unique and exciting adventure into KENPO knowledge, he called the
series of five volumes " Infinite Insights Into Kenpo." Early in
1982, Mr. Parker completed and published the first book in the
"Infinite Insights Into Kenpo" series, titled "Mental Stimulation."
He wrote, "I was sensitive to the need of innovations during my
early years of training. Analyzing the methods of fighting in
Hawaii, the place of my birth and early rearing, verified the
unquestionable need for an updated approach to the Martial Arts."
Mr. Parker broke the bonds of tradition and experimented with more
logical and practical means of combating modern day methods of
fighting. What emerged was, in his own words, "my own
interpretation of the Art." It was this perspective that he
introduced in this initial volume and developed and expanded upon
through his subsequent works. Mr. Parker introduced an unparalleled
number of combative predicaments, indicating the need for several
viewpoints. Thee mystic "Universal Pattern," introduced to the
public for the first time some twenty years earlier, was put into
context. In an effort to develop and articulate definable qualities
in the Martial Arts, he sought to set the backdrop for the unknown
to become known, the intangible to become tangible and for the
mysticism to disappear.
