Explanation:
1. Shu (守:しゅ?, "protect", "obey") — traditional wisdom — learning fundamentals, techniques, heuristics, proverbs
2. Ha (破:は?, "detach", "digress") — breaking with tradition — finding exceptions to traditional wisdom, reflecting on their truth, finding new ways, techniques, and proverbs
3. Ri (離:り?, "leave", "separate") — transcendence — there are no techniques or proverbs, all moves are natural
