To any man who hasn’t, PLEASE pick up “the five rings” and read it. It is life changing.

[@kaku4702]

I need help .... I have never read a book in my entire life, so it's all new to me but now I'm thinking of start reading some can help me finding the right "the five rings" books cuz when i searched there r like more then 10 books with same name i don't wether they're all thr same or which one to pick 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 ( nd i want to start the journey with an actual hardcopy not an e-book or audiobook)

[@walkernunez6492]

@@kaku4702 you can get the original version which contains the original message that Musashi wrote. It is very short and each teaching is extremely brief… Which results in it taking on a different meaning every time you read it. I personally would recommend the “Definitive Interpretation” by Stephen Kaufman. The definitive interpretation provides a lot more detail on what each of the messages mean.

[@jeremyowens4115]

​@@kaku4702 when you're done with that, read "the four agreements". Be well!

[@joshwilson3020]

As this statement is true however so will the Holy Bible God bless

[@Rambop26]

As long as we’re all making suggestions I also highly recommend “meditations” by Marcus Aurelius.

[@jean-sebastienberube4056]

I'm blown away by this video. What a surprise! In 2016, I was in Japan for three months, as I did Kyokushin Karate for 20 years. I decided to hitchhike to Reigando Cave. Finding it was a bit hard, but I succeeded. I kept repeating the words Reigando and Miyamoto Musashi to Japanese people, so they would understand where I wanted to go. The place was exactly like Tu Lam said, with the artifacts, the Shinto shrine, the statues... When I entered the cave, I stayed there for a while and I realised there were no tourists at all, so I decided to sit down and meditate for 15 minutes, until a man came in to have a look. That place was so quiet and in a remote area, away from tourist attractions.

[@TheWolfgangfritz]

What saddens me is that "Modern Japan" has lost its moorings. I think of a good percentage of boys today who have coped out of participating in any type of Martial Art let alone Mastering it. One would think that challenging oneself, pushing oneself, building oneself would be the desire of most boys no matter what ethnic group. Surely Musashi should be the role model for anyone seeking self mastery!

[@djkylebabypleasesaythemfnb7633]

This happens globally. Martial means military. Everything has been watered down for the dojo and cage. There will be warriors from the next generation of young men.

[@Sword_SaintRonin]

I used two of Miyamoto Musashi's books (The book of five rings and Dokkodo) as sources on my informative speech in my lecture Business and Professional Communication. The title of my topic was "Miyamoto Musashi: The Three Principles of Life". However, when I was practising for my speech I felt depressed and didn't have the motivation to continue practising for my speech due to failing two Mid-term exams. I was suffering from failure, I felt that I couldn't trust myself any longer and had bad time management with my study schedule for a week. But I decided to read Musashi's book Dokkodo, I read his quotes "Accept everything just the way it is." and "Do not regret what you have done." which this words took a significant impact in my life and made me realise that we should accept our failiures of our past mistakes and we shouldn't shame ourselves about it but to keep moving forward in our lives for a better tomorrow. When the day came to talk about my speech I didn't expect to talk like a professional public speaker I was surprised for my own speech because it felt like I was expressing my feelings by analysing Miyamoto Musashi's quotes "Accept everything just the way it is.", "Do not regret what you have done." and "Never be jealous". Overall, all I want to say is to read his books because you don't know how much it can change your life.

[@appliedtechappliedtechinc8701]

Amazing. A true warrior having this experience. The camera breaks. He lets go and is fully present for this experience. Beautiful

[@RichHernandezEnt]

Very profound! Thank you Tu Lam for sharing this!

[@ninjasrose1653]

I am the proud owner of a Miyamoto Mushasi tattoo. I read the book of five rings a few years back and it let me know, not only that I was on the right path. But, that I had been on the right path the whole time and that being a lone warrior is currently the life I crave. I'd urge everyone to read the book multiple times. It's very dense and has many pearls of wisdom within it.

[@lovlovelle9237]

Even the book of Mayamoto Musashi and learning the way of life for the ronins during that time is very compelling! Been a big fan of his for years! Thank you for sharing your experiences🙏

Amazing experience Tu Lam. Thank you for sharing. I am traveling to Japan in February and this will be something I hope to experience. Musashi has been such an influence for me, I can only imagine the emotions you felt visiting the cave and his resting place

Look at the downfall of the samurai cast after this, especially at the end of the EDO period, the wondering, drunk ronins whom even the yakuza wasn't interested in to employ them as yojimbos anymore.

[@budomelbourne6122]

@@bakuto5898 the reply was to Ryuga Rai, who put the comments in quotation marks, and attributed them to Musashi... and, no, this does not align with the Dokkodo... not to mention that anything Musashi would have to say is not connected at all to the end of the samurai caste... so, really, no.

[@bakuto5898]

@@budomelbourne6122 After Musashi came to the EDO period which ended the samurai cast as we knew from the time of Musashi.

[@barbarakelly2421]

Thanks for sharing this video. I have just discovered Tu Lam. Observing him I sense a deep sorrow in his stories. Even when he speaks about his visit in Japan its embodied. He is from Vietnam, living in US, but I sense his Japanese attitude and interest for Samurai is very deep and even comes out in his appearance. It makes me think of a rein-incarnation?! Rare to experience in these modern times.

Nerd knowledge: Miyamoto Musashi influenced the video game "Shinobi" in the 80's following into the early 2000's. With protagonist "Joe Musashi". It was actually one of my favorite games as a kid and I've read the book of 5 rings at least 3 times for my buisness endeavors and general knowledge of life. A MUST read.

*Never let one failure from the past hold you back in the future* 👉🏻 *MUST READ FOR YOU* “As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. ‘Well,’ trainer said, ‘when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.’ The man was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.” *I LOVE YOU* 💝

This is interesting, because I heard Musashi died a little bit differently. The way I read about it was... Throughout Musashi's life he fought for peace. He fought and killed the best of the best in every martial art. By defeating all of them he unified Japan. I recall his death as; before he died he got into his battle armor and stood in attack stance to go make peace into the next world beyond death.

[@budomelbourne6122]

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but... no. "By defeating them all he unified Japan"???? He never held a fief, let alone was a Daimyo, so how would he have "unified Japan"?

[@StepsTowardPower]

Bu or 武 translates to martial or military. shi (士）can be translated to scholar or warrior. Broadly it means someone who is a practitioner. Do (道）means the way. The path. Or more profoundly, it represents personal philosophy. Together, Bushi (武士) means Warrior. A 'practitioner' of war, one who is a martial artist (in most cases), one who fights, and does so with conviction. Bushido (武士道） thus means, the way of the warrior. The path of the warrior. It is a philosophy adopted by samurai and many other modern warriors and great human beings, all fighting their own battles, all committed to their causes. I found Tu Lam's explanation of the 3 words quite misleading and quite departed from their actual essence, so I put this together to the best of my understanding. He most likely absorbed the essence of the teachings relating to bushido, but tried to relate them to the kanji or 汉字 in his own unique way, but I found his explanation and expansion quite off-tangent. I hope this helps
