Known as a warrior and a martial artist, Machowicz was also a student of Zen Buddhism. In 2009 he told POLICE Magazine editor David Griffith, "If I exist solely to help somebody else do something great, I am OK with that. That would be a blessing to me."
Many attendees at the 2009 edition of TREXPO West in Long Beach, Calif., put their minds and bodies to work advancing their tactical and technical skills.
You wouldn't know it if you saw Richard "Mack" Machowicz hosting his Discovery Channel show "FutureWeapons" or leading one of his martial arts classes at the Los Angeles-based Bukido Institute, but this former Navy SEAL studied to be a Zen Buddhist priest.
