Shuhari (Japanese: 守破離) is a Japanese concept that describes the stages of learning to mastery. Shuhari is usually translated as "follow the rules, break the rules, transcend the rules". This specific phrasing is usually attributed to Sen no Rikyū, a 16th century tea master and poet. It has been applied to other disciplines, such as Go, Japanese martial arts, Noh theatre, and more.
For rules: 1. Learn 2. Break 3. Transcend
