Book of Five Rings - Hardcover

by Miyamoto Musashi (Author)

There are various Ways. There is the Way of salvation by the law of Buddha the Way of Confucius governing the Way of learning the Way of healing as a doctor as a poet teaching the Way of Waka tea archery and many arts and skills. Each man practises as he feels inclined. It is said the warrior's is the twofold Way of pen and sword and he should have a taste for both Ways. Even if a man has no natural ability he can be a warrior by sticking assiduously to both divisions of the Way.
