To me a laser symbolizes a highly focused and concentrated energetic principle. In Fujita sensei kihon waza one can identify this as the concentrated energy in which he projects into sumi otoshi points. In Chinese internal martial arts this is often translated as Yi, Qi, Li. A simple explananation of this would be that in projecting energy one uses to full effect mind(Yi), breath power(Qi) and body(Li). These three powers combined will produce a laser like power into a single spot. Usually the most weak part of your partner's balance is used. When doing atemi this principle can also used to create a power which is multiplied because of the joining of energy into a single point.
Use of laser in kokyu nage by Fujita sensei. Notice the projection extends beneath the surface of the mat.
Enjoy practice.
