🥋 Royal Occular Martial Arts

The Complete History of Royal Occular Martial Arts

The Dawn of Martial Arts: Long before tournaments, belts, and styles, martial arts began as a spiritual science — a discipline of mind, movement, and perception. From ancient China, Japan, and India, masters trained to unify sight, breath, and awareness into one continuous flow. Over time, techniques divided — becoming Karate, Kung Fu, Taekwondo, Aikido, Judo — each preserving fragments of the original spiritual combat art. Yet all these systems shared one missing secret — the higher vision, the art of seeing beyond reaction, the hidden field of consciousness that governs movement before it begins.

The Birth of the Occular Way: Arsen Saidov (Arsik) — born in the Soviet Union, raised across Czechoslovakia, Germany, Slovakia, and finally Canada — rediscovered what had been forgotten. As a gifted child and Karate champion, he began perceiving motion differently. He could anticipate strikes, read energy before it manifested, and sense patterns invisible to ordinary eyes. Between the ages of three and six, this evolved into a discipline now known as Royal Occular Martial Arts — the first martial system in recorded history built upon sight as divine intelligence.

“Occular Martial Arts is the proper usage of one’s eyesight to predict and see patterns of all kinds — during Martial Arts, Karate competitions, and in real life.” — Arsen Saidov (Arsik)

The Royal Lineage and Vision: Royal Occular Martial Arts carries the bloodline of Arsen’s heritage — uniting Jewish nobility, the Polish Szlachta, and the Torah lineage of Moses (Moshe). It represents the convergence of physical mastery and divine sight — the royal vision that governs mind, body, and soul. The “Royal” in its name does not refer to rank or title, but to the inner sovereignty achieved through discipline, clarity, and perception.

Echoes in Modern Culture: Decades after Arsen’s early mastery, glimpses of his creation began appearing — though distorted — across modern entertainment. In anime, manga, and manhwa, several fictional abilities emerged that reflect partial understandings of the Occular discipline: Sharingan, Rinnegan, Byakugan, and countless other “eye powers.” While these are artistic interpretations, they all stem from the same archetype — the truth that vision itself is a form of power. What they fictionalized, Arsen actualized. Occular Martial Arts predates their appearance. It is the real-world system of sight mastery that inspired the idea of “powerful eyes” later echoed through global culture.

Occular: The Science of Vision and Truth: Occular Martial Arts unites three levels of perception: (1) Physical Sight — reading speed, direction, and movement with precision; (2) Energetic Sight — detecting rhythm, flow, and emotional tension before it manifests; and (3) Divine Sight — perceiving truth itself, beyond illusion. Together, these form the Occular Triad, the complete vision system that no anime, philosophy, or modern school has fully grasped.

“The eyes receive love and evolution. But the soul sees truth.” — Arsik
