And, just as the religious deity figures of the world there are people who spend time dissecting and analyzing context and content in a argumentative and philosophical frenzy, when it comes to Bruce Lee. Not in terms of being the savior of the world of course, but rather, what Bruce said or did is considered “gospel”. JKD people continually speak on Bruce as if he were Jesus Christ himself. The problem is that people have made a deity of Bruce Lee. The first issue surrounding the identity crises of JKD, is the perception of it’s founder. But do Jeet Kune Do practitioners put those philosophical precepts to work, or are they just imitating ideas and idols from a past time? At least that’s what everyone keeps telling themselves. When one pushes boundaries we often put ourselves in vulnerable positions to truly experience the bottom of the empty cup, so to speak. Well if you are that pursuer of excellence then you are also pushing boundaries. If you are a true Jeet Kune Do practitioner, you are most likely a free thinker, a cerebral person, someone who seeks truth, a passive philosopher and a person who is in constant pursuit of personal and physical growth.
