The Art of Thai Boxing
Questions from the audience:
A lot of people think that Thai boxing is one of the national arts, so Thai people should preserve it. Is it correct? If it is not correct, is there any bad retribution?
Answer:
There are many people thinking that Thai boxing is one of the national arts and it should be preserved. It can counted to be partial correct because it is the ancient art using for the country prevention and protection. But it is not the pure art, it is partially mixed with bad retribution. So the best way Thai people should preserve it as an exercise like the Chinese boxing for health. The truly pure art is the art which is able to improve one’s mind such as the way of stilling one’s mind. If that kind of art can do, it is counted to be the highest art.
