Autograph notes, in pencil, on one side of a 5 x 3 index card. Lee writes, in full: “PROCESS IN LEARNING GUNG FU. *self-cultivation. The point where to rest being known, the object of pursuit is then determined; and, that being determined, a calm unperturbedness may be attained to. To that calmness there will succeed a tranquil repose. In that repose there may be careful deliberation, and that deliberation will be followed by the attainment of the desired end.

#Wishing to cultivate oneself, one first rectifies his heart (mind).

#Wishing to rectify his heart, one seek to be sincere in his thoughts.

#Wishing to be sincere in his thoughts, one first extend to the utmost of his knowledge. Such extension of knowledge lies in the investigation of things.

Remark – It cannot be, when the root is neglected, that what should spring from it will be well ordered.”

Also included is an unissued ‘gold stripe’ membership card for Lee’s Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute, 3.75 x 2.5, signed in black ink “Bruce Lee.” In fine condition, with a trimmed top right corner to index card, and a bit of trivial toning and soiling. Over 120 words in Lee’s hand revealing his unique philosophy of Gung Fu.
