"follow the rules, break the rules, transcend the rules".
 
守破離
The Shuhari  concept was first presented by Fuhaku Kawakami as Jo-ha-kyū  in The Way of Tea, "Sado 茶道".
 
  • shu (守) "protect", "obey"—traditional wisdom—learning fundamentals, techniques, heuristics, proverbs.
  • ha (破) "detach", "digress"—breaking with tradition—detachment from the illusions of self, to break with tradition - to find exceptions to traditional wisdom, to find new approaches.
  • ri (離) "leave", "separate"—transcendence—there are no techniques or proverbs, all moves are natural, becoming one with spirit alone without clinging to forms; transcending the physical - there is no traditional technique or wisdom, all movements are allowed.
