Miyamato Musashi and Bruce Lee both became the greatest warriors of their times through their intelligence ; not accepting the status quo , but rather observing inherent flaws and weaknesses of the established styles and creating their own way

My favorite story of one of his duels was when he had to meet a man on an island. The time of the duel was around noon, and he showed up around sunset. Musashi upset the man so much, that as the boat man docked to shore. The opponent, in such rage, took his sword from the sheath, which he threw to the wind. Then, ran to Musashi, as Musashi had only one foot on land, began his attacks. Musashi, drew his katana and cut the opponent down. The boat man, left in awe asked, "How did you do that?" Musashi replied, "I knew the deal was mine when I saw him throw his sheath away. The sheath is the place of peace for the sword. Once I saw him throw away the place of peace, I knew the duel was mine."

I’ve travelled with the book of five rings for years and I have to say, having a videos captivating like yours will help me introduce “The way” to my nephews. Thank you. Forever grateful.

This is the answer, our WANTS and NEEDS are the only reason we have emotions, so in order to be happy and be considered “smart” you have to think about what you want, so ALWAYS KNOW the knowledge is there, but we must LEARN to UNDERSTAND what we want, so NEVER stop learning because persistence is key, and just because you’ve learned something doesn’t mean you understand it. This is the key for understanding ALL beings with emotions, so always listen, and ALWAYS live in the MOMENT as if it were nothing but a blank canvas, and NEVER implement TIME into your personal life, as you WILL be stressed and WILL focus on the past resulting in depression, or the future resulting in anxiety. Also, your very WILL is stronger when you know, what you want and need it’s important to remember to focus energy into that but not ALL of your energy as you need to remember yourself and others because we all have wants and needs.

This channel is a public service. Thank you 🙏🏾

I have to say that I really look forward to hearing this content when this particular narrator is used. I’ve heard a few recent ones and they really weren’t able to keep my attention as much as this guy does. Does anyone else feel that way?

I've been meditating on strategic and tactical prowess and how to advance, I'm starting to realize the power of the mind. I'm glad I watched this video❤😊

Bro cooks so much with these vids.

been a fan of him for awhile now..

Glad I found this channel hard to find good entertainment on this app sometimes

Bro, love your voice. Love the topic. Instant follow

Musashi also led his men into battle at the age of 12. Into battle. Never lost a battle in 16 yrs and then just left the world and lived in a cave

Bro, love your voice and the top topic ❤

Just finished watching this insightful exploration into Miyamoto Musashi's strategies, and I'm struck by the timeless relevance of his teachings. The video does a great job highlighting how Musashi's life, filled with challenges, shaped not just his swordsmanship but also his approach to life's myriad challenges. The breakdown of "Goin no show" and its five elemental rings adds a fascinating layer to Musashi's philosophy. I found the analogies to Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and the Void quite intriguing as they offer a holistic perspective beyond the battlefield. But this the emphasis on Musashi's mental approach to combat is something I hadn't considered deeply before which added by... the "no sword" strategy, focusing on psychological warfare and projecting invincibility, makes me wonder how applicable these principles are beyond the martial arts context. Have any viewers tried implementing these strategies in their daily lives or professions? I would like to know more on the segment on Nan Ichi Ru and Musashi's innovation in two-sword combat is captivating, if anyone can shed light or share their perspective. Got me thinking about instances in life when breaking away from tradition or embracing change led to unexpected advantages.

Great video bro

Well said

Examining that headline, it becomes evident to me that individuals often invest too heavily in the pursuit of undermining others and attempting to outwit them, or simply adopting a negative attitude. In all honesty, living a virtuous life, maintaining your own path, and sharing laughter with the right companions can lead to a tranquil existence without the need to outsmart anyone. Why bother spending time attempting to appear clever?
