Strength to Overcome Yourself — 克己心 (Kokkishin)

Model Number: C002-507
Sale price€117,95 EUR

This Japanese calligraphy scroll features the powerful term 克己心 (Kokkishin), meaning "the spirit of self-mastery". It represents a universal principle across Karate, Judo, and Aikido — the idea that the greatest opponent is often within.

Rather than defeating others, true martial arts begins with conquering one’s own doubts, impulses, and limitations. Kokkishin speaks to the courage and discipline needed to train the body while refining the mind — a lifelong path of self-control and inner strength.

克己 (Kokki)
"To overcome the self" — the mindset of facing your own weaknesses with discipline and resolve.

心 (Shin)
"The heart/spirit" — the core of intention, where perseverance, humility, and strength of character reside.

Ideal for martial artists of any discipline, this calligraphy serves as a daily reminder: true strength lies not in overpowering others, but in mastering yourself.

Great word, wish for more colors

The meaning is deep and inspiring. I just wish there were more color options to match my space.

More than martial arts

The meaning of Kokkishin is something special. It goes beyond Karate. It fits every sport. Honestly, it fits life itself. I had to have this on my wall. No question.

I needed this reminder

Karate taught me that the hardest fight is with myself. This scroll says it perfectly.

Good message, but smaller than expected

I do Judo and love the message of self-mastery. I just wish it was a bit larger for my dojo wall.

To push through setbacks

Judo isn’t always easy. I wanted something that keeps me going when I fail.
