Bruce Lee scene with teacher in Enter the Dragon

[Tevin]

Sorry for starting another Bruce Lee thread!!
I just watched the Enter the dragon dvd, and heard that the scene in question was originally remove when the film was released. Any reason for this? Was Bruce trying to explain JKD concepts through the film?

Could someone explain in layman's terms what Bruce meant in that scene:

Teacher: What is the highest technique you hope to achieve?
Bruce: To have no technique

Teacher: What are your thoughts when facing an opponent?
Bruce: There is no oponent.

Teacher: Why is that?
Bruce: Because the word I does not exist
A good fight shal be like a small play but played very seriously.
A good martial artist does not become tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming, ready for whatever may come. When the oponent expands I contract. When he contracts I extract. When there is an oportunity, I do not hit. (pointing to his fist) It hits all by itself.

Teacher: The enemy only has images and illusions behind which he hides his true motives. Destroy the image and you will break the enemy. The 'it' you refer to, is a powerful weapon...
=============================================
There is no opponent? It hits by itself? 'I' does not exist? Destroying the image? Was he referring to not being intimidated by size and weight of the opponent?

Could some shed some light on these concepts? Thanks in advance

This is one of the few scenes that were cut from the original release but put back in the DVD. The explanation I heard was that this was too philosophical for the audience at the time and they wouldn't understand so they decided to take it out.

Even by today's standard, unless someone is somewhat familiar with Bruce Lee's philosophy or JKD, they'd be lost too.

The last sentence was audio heard when Bruce was in the mirrored room towards the end of the movie, right before he starts to break the mirrors.
