"Kenshō Sāndrava" — The Flow of Absolute Knowing

(Kenshō: Zen term meaning "seeing one's true nature"; Sāndrava: Sanskrit for "stream of essence or tension")
This is a holistic discipline that unifies nervous system mastery, internal respiration, perceptual transcendence, and lethal precision into a singular school of combat, meditation, and total awareness.

Core Principles

1. Prana-Bindu Integration (Dune)

Bodily Autonomy: Through precise Prana (energy) and Bindu (muscle) control, practitioners achieve complete voluntary control over every muscle, nerve, gland, and organ. Pain can be shut off, blood flow rerouted, toxins neutralized, and hormones regulated in real-time.

Molecular Efficiency: No movement is wasted. Every twitch and breath is controlled at the sub-millimeter level.

Deep Muscular Awareness: The practitioner can shift muscle tone, fascia tension, and tendon elasticity with thought, allowing them to simulate superhuman flexibility or rigidity depending on need.


2. Bene Gesserit Conditioning (Dune)

Observation Mastery: They detect microexpressions, breath shifts, muscle tension, and even subtle voice tremors to discern intent.

Voice Manipulation: Using pitch, resonance, and subliminal command patterns, they can override the target's conscious control and enforce obedience.

Mnemonic Recall: Every second is recorded and can be recalled at will, forming perfect combat analysis and pattern recognition.


3. Weirding Way (Dune)

Sonic-Aided Combat: A developed practitioner uses precise vocal harmonics (akin to a focused kiai) to resonate, distract, or even disorient foes.

Combat Invisibility: Through soundless motion, breath suppression, and psychological suppression of presence, users vanish from perception even while standing nearby.

Explosive Entry: Practitioners can shift from invisibility to maximum output in milliseconds, overwhelming opponents before they register motion.

Demon Slayer Disciplines Integration

4. Total Concentration Breathing (常中)

Respiratory Foundation: Breathing becomes cyclic and purposeful even during sleep, enhancing cell oxygenation, toxin removal, stamina, and focus.

Energy Amplification: With each breath, internal pressure surges, enhancing strength, reaction speed, and sensory perception.


5. Repetitive Action Training

Neural Embedding: Through obsessive repetition and post-traumatic conditioning, certain reflexes and state-switching commands are hardcoded into muscle memory.

Combat Recall Triggering: Unique mantras or gestures can instantly unlock advanced mental and physical states even under extreme duress.


6. Opening Thread & Transparent World

Opening Thread: The user learns to perceive the critical "thread of fate" in an opponent's defense—an opening to end the battle in a single blow.

Transparent World: By syncing heartbeat, breath, and spatial awareness, the user perceives the opponent's muscle tension, blood flow, and energy displacement—as if looking through their skin. This allows prediction of attacks before they happen.


7. Selfless State

Ego Removal: The practitioner erases all thought of self, achieving pure reaction without intent. Their movements are no longer telegraphed, making them unreadable.

Untrackable Presence: Without ego or bloodlust, they become invisible to instinctive awareness—even to seasoned killers or sensory-based techniques.

Kenshin-Style Integration

8. Shukuchi (縮地) – "Reduced Earth Technique"

Perceptual Manipulation via Speed: By blinding acceleration and perfectly placed footwork, the user can cross short distances faster than the eye can follow, creating the illusion of teleportation.

Frame Breaking: From the opponent's POV, the user phases from one place to another, disrupting predictive or reactive defenses.


9. Futae no Kiwami (二重の極み) – "Mastery of Two-Layered Strikes"

Impact Overload: First strike breaks surface tension; the second, applied microseconds later, bypasses the dispersed energy to damage internal structures directly.

Prana-Bindu Synergy: With perfect joint and muscle control, this technique becomes deadly even with fingers or the edge of clothing.


10. Izuna (飯綱落とし) – "Izuna Drop"

Aerial Submission Throw: A movement capturing the opponent in mid-air and spinning downward into the earth or structure, turning their momentum against them.

Zero-Balance Pivoting: By merging with the Weirding Way's physics-defiance and Transparent World perception, the practitioner sees the perfect moment to unbalance and break in even chaotic environments.

Final Synthesis: The Way of Kenshō Sāndrava

Practitioners of this combined art become ghosts on the battlefield, moving with no wasted motion, no audible breath, no telegraphed intent. They breathe in battle as they do in sleep—deeply, methodically, and powerfully. Their senses are so refined they can detect a heartbeat at ten meters, and their vision penetrates muscle and blood. Their muscles coil with suppressed tension, able to explode into Shukuchi bursts or hammer out a Futae no Kiwami from unarmed stances.

They use the Voice to manipulate weaker minds, and the Selfless State to become unreadable to stronger ones. They can cross a room before their enemy notices, see the enemy's next step before they act, and end a fight in a single, quiet moment.

Training Regimen

1. Year 1:

Total Concentration Breathing Mastery (awake and asleep)

Prana-Bindu nerve mapping and muscle fiber isolation

Voice resonance modulation and auditory manipulation

Repetitive action with weighted resistance (thousands of reps/day)



2. Year 2–3:

Transparent World perception drills with blindfolds

Shukuchi pattern sparring with disorientation environments

Izuna aerial control practice via scaffolding or vertical drop zones

Psychological reinforcement for Selfless State immersion



3. Year 4–5:

Combat pattern prediction and Opening Thread reflex training

Futae no Kiwami structural disintegration drills (with wood, stone, armor)

Battlefield invisibility tests with trained observers

Application of the Voice against resistant minds (animal and human alike)

Ranks or Stages

1. Threadwalker – Basic prana-bindu and breathing discipline


2. Ghoststep – Full Shukuchi and Weirding movement


3. Veilpiercer – Transparent World and Opening Thread mastery


4. Voicebearer – Vocal mastery and emotional manipulation


5. Nameless One – Selfless State unlocked, becomes unreadable


6. Sāndrava Kenshō – The complete form: silent, lethal, omniscient in motion



(A/N) So apparently this is what happens when I reread several different fanfics at the same time as rewatching rurouni kenshin but I have my hands full with my current fics and don't want to start another new one but I can't count on my dumb ass brain remembering this shit so I'ma kill two birds with one stone and post it here for both storage and feedback so let me know what you think
