Hokuto Shinken: Difference between revisions

*'''Musō Ryūbu''' (北斗無想流舞, ''North Dipper [[wikipedia:Mushin|Nil-Thought]] Flowing Dance''): Toki's [[wikipedia:Tai chi chuan|Tai chi]] like movements.

*'''Musō Tensei''' (無想転生, ''[[wikipedia:Mushin|Nil-Thought]]  [[wikipedia:Rebirth_(Buddhism)|Rebirth]]'') ㊙: The ultimate Hokuto Shin Ken technique, which had never before been properly mastered by anyone in the eighteen-hundred year history of the style. Kenshiro was the first to master it, followed by Raoh. Ken achieved this by becoming consumed with sorrow to the point where he had achieved communion with the deathless absolute emptiness or void spoken of in Buddhism. At times it enables him to be at one with the spirits of deceased fighters (Toki, the Nanto Rokusei Warriors), and in the second series, it enables his spirit to fight Kaio even though he is in a coma (following the first fight with Kaio, after Shachi escapes with his body). Its mastery was perfected after Kenshiro learned the secrets of the Hokuto Souke in Taiseiden, Asura, in the second TV series.
