	Martial Arts Definitions and Terminology (1)
		The delineation is not all that concrete, at least not in Japan.
		Many bujutsu teachers call their arts a "budo," for the sake of convenience or some other reason.
		Another set of terms for budo and bujutsu, which are more concrete, are gendai budo and koryu budo/bujutsu.

	Budo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Similarly, Bujutsu is a compound of the kanji characters 武 (bu) and 術 (jutsu) meaning technique or skill.
		It is distinguished by many terms representing the actual technical skills and techniques being practiced such as Kyudo ("The Way of the Bow"), and Kendo and Kenjutsu ("Way of the Sword" and "Sword Techniques" or "Sword Skill").
		In modern times these have been broken apart and translated into what are commonly known as karatedo (striking), jujutsu, judo or aikido, (grappling), kendo, iaido and kobudo (weaponry).

	Bujutsu (Bugei) vs. Budo:
		Bujutsu is the older of the two and are quite literally the “martial arts” of Japan with goal being the absolute effective application of fighting techniques in combat.
		The budo or martial ways, in contrast to bujutsu, are far less concerned with practical and realistic application of techniques in the modern age, but much more focused on the perfection of the moral fiber of the individual budo student.
		Bujutsu, has it’s own shuygo (intensive training), but the goal is not by any means the perfection of character but rather preparing the warrior for the eventuality and reality of real life combat with the correct technique being the difference between life and death.

	RANDORI AND THE UNIFICATION OF JUJUTSU DISCIPLINES BY THE KODOKAN
		In addition, agreements of the bujutsu master and the clan were for only one generation and there were no guarantees that the clan would continue to use the same discipline after the agreement was fulfilled.
		Butokukai was established as the governing body of the different types of bujutsu by high ranking government officials, military personnel and policeman to "maintain the samurai spirit" in the Meiji era and the new government system it brought to that era.
		For example, at the bujutsu competition held at the police headquarters in 1885, it is said that the Kodokan dominated the Tozuka-group Yoshin-ryu who were the main powerhouse at the time.

	Interpretation of an excerpt from 'Budo' by Morihei Ueshiba :: Seishinkan Bujutsu
		The original intent of bujutsu was to kill an enemy with one blow; since all techniques can be lethal, observe the instructor's directions and do not engage in contests of strength.
		Bujutsu is an art in which the one is used to strike the many.
		A Bujutsu exponent should be prepared to use their body in whatever manner is necessary so as to achieve the desired result, whilst producing the least harm to themselves.

	Martial Arts: Searching for Budo
		Since weapons are usually regarded as mechanical extensions of the human body, students are typically not taught the use of weapons until after they have adequately learned the first levels of fighting.
		This, however, is not the case in those schools whose Bujutsu training is confined to the use of weapons.
		While the techniques may in fact be authentic, these are schools of Bujutsu, and, as such, they will usually teach all the necessary techniques for fighting.

		The primary objective of a student of a koryÅ« is to engage in the practice of bujutsu in order to develop the combative mindset of his or her ryÅ«, through which he will come to understanding the effective utilization of a broad range of weapons in mortal combat.
		While bujutsu and budÅ remain two distinct practices, they are not mutually exclusive, and the terms are used almost interchangeably in the Japanese language.
		The distinction, however subtle, between bujutsu and budo points to the essential difference and qualities of each approach and their relationship to koryÅ«.

		Unlike modern budo, such as judo, karate-do, or iaido, the old martial systems (koryu) were often sogo bujutsu.
		A sogo bujutsu incorporates a number of martial disciplines that are linked by a set of unifying principles as espoused by the art's founder.
		Although the exact arts that made up the bugei juhappan, or "18 martial arts," varied according to martial system, and sometimes according to historical period as well, suiei-jutsu is often described as being one of them.

	Renwaku Bujutsu Association
		Renwaku Bujutsu as a self defence system is not designed to be of a competitive nature, and therefore not specifically designed for tournament.
		Renwaku Bujutsu training consists of a lot of free style movement in relation to punching, kicking, blocking, and other exercises to become familiar with the technique and build general fitness and stamina.
		My influence to create the Renwaku Bujutsu system was the simple effectiveness and fluid movement that is obtained from combining different techniques from within the existing individual styles with my own principles of self defence.

		In the midst of this social upheaval, those hit particularly hard were the bujutsu instructors in the employ of the Bakufu or domains, or who managed their own private dojo in the cities.
		In fact, after 1911 when bujutsu was finally accepted into the official school curriculum, albeit as an elective activity, many turned face and rained harsh criticism on the early bujutsu-taiso initiatives as being nothing more than performance exercises with sticks.
		Nevertheless, bujutsu was not to become elevated to a compulsory subject in the physical education curriculum until 1931.

	Shudokan Martial Arts Association: Online Articles: Sawai: My Introduction to Bujutsu
		Although suiei-jutsu was developed by the bushi ("warriors") of my country in feudal times, and while it is a form of koryu bujutsu, or "old style martial arts," we practiced it as a do, or spiritual path.
		All through these peaceful times, for three centuries, Japanese koryu budo and bujutsu, as well as other classical arts, went through a unique modification, that is, as I mentioned, the process from mere practicality to finding beauty in established forms (kata) or styles (ryu).
		Practicing budo or bujutsu is not only good for our health like physical exercises, but also it teaches people about the relationship between mind and body—in other words, the importance of unity of mind and body.

		Similarly to budÅ, bujutsu is a compound of the words bu (æ¦), and jutsu (è¡“:ããã¤), meaning science, craft, or art.
		Thus, budÅ is most often translated as "the way of war", or "martial way", while bujutsu is translated as "science of war" or "martial craft." However, both budÅ and bujutsu are used interchangeably in English with the term "martial arts".
		A martial arts school might choose to call their practice bujutsu, because they desire a connection with the past, or to emphasize that their art is practiced as it was during a certain point in history.
