I have been privileged to spend a short period of time speaking with a master of Goju. He is a 10th Dan and studied under two 10th dans. I train occasionally with another top Goju man who is truly a master but would never call himself that, such is his humility. And, I train with an Aikido man regularly whom I consider a master. The rest of the top people I have trained with over many years are not at what I call master level, although two would be close.
True 'Masters' are a bit thin on the ground.
