[@knightshousegames]

What I love about Go Rin No Sho is that it is written in a (mostly) straight forward way, as in there isn't a ton of flowery language and he mostly just explains his philosophy as clearly as possible, while at the same time being strangely artistic about it. Basically his wordplay and metaphors for the most part felt effortless. In the translation I listened to the audiobook of, the "ether" chapter was referred to as the "Void" chapter. And when you get what he's trying to say, it makes sense that it is as short as it is. He's basically saying "to understand the way of the warrior is to never think you fully understand it. Never stop learning, never stop training" which I think is easily the best lesson in the entire book. To keep that chapter super short really drives that point home. The fact that Musashi lived as long as he did, and died of something not a ton of Samurais died of; old age, makes him easily one of the most credible sources on the way of a fighter in the world, not just in Japan, but anywhere.

[@SooonWukong]

I've always superficially thought that Musashi's figure was too overly glorified, but after this video I seriously feel total respect toward him and his way of living, not necessarily as a warrior but mostly as a human. Great work!

[@hanchiman]

His 21 points about his life now explain why we don't see him leaving any historical items and relics like his swords and armor or any personal items. Instead he left the world with his philosophy in the form of books he wrote or his few art pieces. Also now I understand why he didn't stay long in one place, and become an official sword instructor for a clan with a yearly Koku. For me, Musashi is a "Martial artist" instead of a "Warrior". Because a good martial artist seek to perfect their art to win a fight meanwhile a good warrior seek to survive in a fight. I think Bruce Lee read the book of fiver rings as his life philosophy sounds similar to Musashi

[@outboundflight4455]

It's said in one of the Samurai museum (can't remember which) has on display the actual nihonto he used and the refurbished koshaire he used.

[@hanchiman]

@@outboundflight4455 is his sword normal looking? I thought Musashi only see sword as a "tool" with no much affection or giving them nicknames like most famous swords in Japan that had a title after getting a certain kill. Like Helmet Cracker or Boar Killer

@@outboundflight4455 I actually attempted to check if there was any of his sword in google before I wrote this comment before, but all I could find then was just katana shops, so assumed there wasn't much artifacts from Musashi

[@symmetrie_bruch]

"Because a good martial artist seek to perfect their art to win a fight" so by your definition then it´s strange that you mention an actor that only ever oficially fought once. granted he won that fight but it was only against one other high shool. that´s not to say that lee couldn´t have been a good fighter but the fact is lee was never really tested, that´s just not where is interests lay. where musashi was tested constantly in deadly duels that he himself thought out for the most part. so i dunno they may have had similar philophies in general but how they actually lived their lives could hardly be more different.

[@outboundflight4455]

this scroll series by Musashi is amazing. it's impacted my life so profoundly that it made me get more involved into Japanese Martial arts and culture, specifically JuJitsu, Iaijutsu and Kendo. William Scott Wilson made an amazing translation. I was very privileged to practice Iai with his Iaito.

[@mikotagayuna8494]

As much as he is loved for bringing samurai culture to modern consciousness, the inaccuracies regarding his historicity also helped perpetuate misconceptions and exaggerations about samurai as well and it's often not easy to distinguish between both.

[@jsonitsac]

I feel like Musashi is interested because he knew that he was living at this very interesting Cross Roads in Japanese history. He was old enough to have participated in the Sengoku conflicts, however, the wars are all over for most of his life. So there’s this fundamental question underlying much of his philosophy and writing - what’s the point of a being a warrior in a country at peace? What do you do with yourself? This is a question that he and thousands of his fellow samurai or forced to wrestle with over the next 260 years. Legally at the top of the social order, these “warriors” are instead becoming bureaucrats, yet are required to maintain warrior skills. So it makes sense to me how this would resonate through the Edo period and beyond.

[@ShogunateDaimyo]

When Rin Go, He No Sho

[@br0kenbutt3rfly23]

I own that very book you referenced by Alexander Bennett's and it has become a treasured possession of mine in my life. Like your friend, I'm a Martial Artist and it was because of my being such that I came to learn that Mas Oyama (the founder of Kyokushin Karate) apparently had nothing but the Gorin no Sho to read during his years of isolation training in Mt. Minobu. With that knowledge I took the aforementioned copy of said book and now, like Mas Oyama before me, it has become a strong influence in my philosophy in life. Miyamoto Musashi was a unique individual whose wisdom extended beyond his era. My life right now is a difficult one but Martial Arts and teachings like those of Musashi allow me to survive. I hope one day to be able to find the enlightenment he found as a warrior on the path. P.S.) I've been reading Takehiko Inoue's "Vagabond" manga lately and while it, like Eikichi Yoshikawa's novel before it, is a mostly fictional recounting of Musashi's life.. It is a rather enjoyable and relatable read for someone like me walking the so-called "Way of the Sword". Stay safe and much love from an Arnisador/Karateka from the Philippines. 🙏🥋

I liked how Musashi wasn't just a swordsman, he also did art and calligraphy. So maybe the key to being great is to be rounded in everything. Great vid!

As always I learn many things when I view your video's. Of course, I have a few copies of different translations of the Book of Five Rings, and I'm honestly torn with how I feel about the texts I've read. I have not read or heard of the primary source for this video, but will now have get and read this work. As to Musashi the man I'm also a sceptic on many of the things I've read. I felt that Musashi was a skilled swordsman, but he also had to be a skillful self promoter. As such many things could exaggerated or fabricated to help raise his profile. Without independent verification many fall for the If it's a choice between the truth and the legend, print the legend. Musashi's known life is a perfect canvas to paint myths and partial truths upon that will thrill disciples and attract new fans. The real Musashi will always remain a somewhat shadowy but interesting historical character.

I seem to remember the use of animated scenes along with live action to depict the duels, which was pretty cool. I enjoyed this video as well, of course.

People fail to appreciate the difference. Everybody and their mother these days want to think of themselves as a modern version of the samurai, spartan warrior, whatever... while failing to appreciate the level of institutionalization, blind obligation and self-discipline that involved.

[@kweassa6204]

It's a good video to watch that explains the "traditional" view on Musashi, I'd say. But I'd just like to mention that in Japan, there's been a lot of skepticism on Musashi since the mid '90s, and generally, the opinion of Japanese kendo world is that they hold people like Tsukahara Bokuden or Kamiizumi Nobutsuna in way higher regard than Musashi. One thing you have to remember is that the "traditional" view of Musashi has basically only twoi sources: (1) Musashi himself, and (2) writings on Musashi through his foster son Miyamoto Iori. And often, the claims from those two sources don't really check out when cross referenced with other contemporary sources during the time. One example: there are actually surviving independent references on Musashi's fight with the Yoshioka dojo. And the majority of those sources don't tell the story in the way Musashi described it himself. So I would like to suggest people take in the story of Musashi with a grain of salt, because most of the story as known in the West isn't exactly in-line with the latest trends of research. It usually mirrors '50s ~ pre-'90s "myth of Musashi."

Chinese soldiers couldn't beat the Japanese who used katana. China developed swords called Qijiadao, wodao, and miao dao based on katana, and the Chinese army used them. These are records of Japanese swordsmanship by China in the 16th and 17th centuries. Min's General Qi Jiguang (1528 - 1588)'s military book Jixiao Xinshu "This was the first time I knew this when a Japanese samurai attacked China. They moved like a dance, and the forward rushing force seemed to flash light, and our Ming soldiers were just distracted. The Japanese are very active and move about 3m at a time. Since the length of katana is 1.6m, it will be attacked even at a distance of 4.8m. It is difficult to approach with my soldier's sword, it is too late with a spear, and if I encounter it, everyone will be cut off and killed. This is because their weapons are sharp and they are free to use powerful and heavy swords that can be swung with both hands. " Min Martial Artist Cheng Zongyou (1561-1636) Martial arts book Dan Dao Fa Xuan "We call that Japanese weapon dandao. Use a swinging sword with both hands. This is a technique unique to Japanese people. The technique is well trained, precise and solid. Japanese swords are easy to handle, and each one makes sense, including the handle and scabbard. No other sword can match the Japanese sword. A well-polished Japanese sword reflects the light of the sun and hits our eyes. The light makes our hearts cold. In Japanese swordsmanship, the change from side to side is strange and mysterious, and it is not predictable to ordinary people. Therefore, even if you use a long-handled weapon such as a spear, you will always lose to the Japanese sword. " Min's military strategist Heliang chen's military book Zhen ji "The Japanese thief's attack is only hit twice or three times with katana, Often I can't prevent it. You should know the ingenuity of their katana sword technique. "
