The Kōdō Kihan is a Code of Conduct composed of thirteen Fundamental Principles that the practitioner of Chūjutsu should integrate into their life as a path of inner discipline, vibrational elevation, and continuous self-transformation.
Inspired by the millennia-old teachings of the East, these paths are not rigid rules, but invitations to awareness, discipline, and inner expansion. Walking the path of the Kōdō Kihan is like ascending along a way of light toward the fullness of Being.
1 Faith – shinkō 信仰
2 Gratitude – Kansha 感謝
3 Detachment – Mushūchaku 無執着
4 Posture – Taidō 態度
5 Wise Speech – Chigen 知言
6 Silence – Seijaku – 静寂
7 Humility – Kenkyō 謙虚
8 Serenity – Heisei 平静
9 Integrity – Seijitsu 誠実
10 Kindness – Shinsetsu 親切
11 Respect – Sonkei 尊敬
12 Patience – Nintai 忍耐
13 Forgiveness – Yurushi 許し
When cultivated sincerely and consistently, these principles not only reorganize the inner field but also make it lighter, more centered, and expansive. It is as if each virtue activates a specific flow of subtle energy, aligning the mind, heart, and body to the axis of consciousness.
By living the Kōdō Kihan, the practitioner strengthens their presence, develops emotional clarity, and begins to radiate balance, compassion, and wisdom wherever they go. They cease to be merely an individual seeking peace and become a radiating center of harmony, silently influencing the environment and people around them. Their energy becomes a true reflection of their state of consciousness.
These principles are not externally imposed laws but arise from the deep understanding that every human relationship is, above all, an energetic exchange. When we comprehend that we are constantly emitting and receiving frequencies, we learn to better care for the quality of what we think, feel, and express.
Kōdō Kihan thus becomes an inner compass that guides our actions and reactions with firmness, compassion, and centeredness.
