Old Story: The Fish & The Fisherman (Do Not Chase Desire) Ninjutsu Martial Arts Philosophy Lesson
In this video, I teach an old zen philosophy lesson called: “The Fish and The Fisherman”. This is a lesson that has been passed down for many years to teach us to not focus on desire.
.
In the Budo Ryu Kai we study 7 warrior traditions. 1of the 7 warrior traditions of the Budo Ryu Kai is Gyokko-ryu Kosshijutsu. In studying Gyokko-ryu, we learn the 9 rules of Gyokko-ryu. 1 of the 9 rules of Gyokko-ryu is: “Vices dissipate your proficiency”. Today’s philosophy is a good artistic lesson to help understand this particular thought from Gyokko-ryu.
.
However, as a ninjutsu practitioner you should learn how to use desire to help you complete the mission or objectives. At the end of the video I briefly mention my time “working” in “adult entertainment” and now (in the present day) my students know what I was really doing, who I was working for, and why. I will not get into detail here, however I will say, when I convinced my most hated opposition online to “believe” the “new identity” of me in adult entertainment, it gave me an opportunity to do this job. They (online haters) started posted these “facts” online of me as a escort, etc… This helped me create a new persona and allowed me to get into places to do things that I would not have been able to do. This aspect of creating a new persona, making it believable and getting into places you should not be is a very intricate aspect towards ninjutsu and is something that I will discuss in depth in one of my upcoming books.

Ninpo Must Be Taught By Kuden | Bansenshukai Historical Ninjutsu Training | Ninja Martial Arts
In this video I share a quote from the Bansenshukai regarding the importance of keeping ninjutsu secret and only teaching those that are truly able to understand the depth of ninpo.
.
The Bansenshukai (萬川集海) translates as “All Rivers Merge into the Sea”, meaning that the Bansenshukai is the ultimate collection of all Iga & Koka Ninjutsu and is regarded by scholars as the Bible of Ninjutsu.

BANSENSHUKAI LESSON #4
BANSENSHUKAI LESSON #4 – PLEASE READ!
So even though there are some ninja “groups” / “organizations” that want to claim that ninja were not assassins, and did not have secret forms of fighting, is clearly wrong.
The most famous ninja densho of all time says it is possible to kill the enemy with shinobi-no-jutsu. It even states that there are secret skills taught to kill the enemy general.
It is simply amazing that these words can be written in what is known as the bible of ninjutsu, and many ninja “practitioners” / “historians” want to claim that they are not assassins, and do not have secret form of fighting.

BANSENSHUKAI LESSON #3
BANSENSHUKAI LESSON #3 – PLEASE READ!
We live in an age of internet access, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, where lots of information is at our finger tips. Just because we live in a digital era, does not mean that everything that we do has to be public. Ninjutsu has its roots and essence in secrecy, and I believe that it needs to stay there.
Yes I am very open to the fact that I teach ninjutsu. But, I keep the curriculum, the scrolls and densho between myself and my students. I believe that the art of ninjtusu has to be earned, not giving away. Ninjutsu is an experience, not a text book.
Amazing how the Bansenshukai says that you must protect the art, it must be a secret only kept to the members of the clan, yet when I keep all of the training secret, I am doing ninjutsu wrong… Really?
Ninjutsu is more then just words on a paper. It is a vehicle to help us become better people, which is very intimate and sacred to each one of us. Instead of trying to learn ninjutsu from the ink on a page, dedicate yourself and train in the warrior arts. Push yourself mentally, physically and emotionally, then, you will have a deeper understanding of the truth.
To those that do not train in the warrior arts, this makes no sense to them and these words sounds foolish; but to those that train in the real warrior arts, the ones that sweat and bleed in the dojo with a warrior family that has closer bonds than their own bloodline, this is not foolish, and the training of ninjutsu becomes more than just a method of warfare, it becomes a way of life.

BANSENSHUKAI LESSON #2
BANSENSHUKAI LESSON #2 – PLEASE READ!
It is amazing when certain ninjutsu “groups” and “organizations” practice the art of ongyojutsu, it is a historical part of ninjtusu from the Bansenshukai. However; when I teach ongyojutsu, these same groups and organizations claim that I get it from a children’s book.
FUN FACT:
I was teaching these 4 ongyojutsu methods years before the release of the Bansenshukai English translation. I have published the instruction of these methods in two books (Shinobi-no-Michi & Tomo-ryu Shoden-no-maki) both books being published before the release of the English translation of the Bansenshukai.
In both of the books that I published, I referenced in the bibliography the Bansenshukai as a source of information. This is fact. The idea that the Bansenshukai is a children’s books is ridiculous. I have been teaching these techniques for years. Now that the Bansenshukai is out, it should be clear to everyone that I have been displaying real authentic ninjutsu since the birth of the Budo Ryu in 2004.
It does not matter if you agree with my lineage or not. The facts are the Tomo-ryu “jutsu” that is taught within that ryuha completely aligns itself within historical ninjutsu technique.

Amazing that the ninja of old knew this, yet this stupidity and ignorance still exist today. I guess there are those that feel if they do it “just like the book says” they are right, and everyone else is wrong.
“Ignorant ninja are not aware of this principal but directly stick to ancient ways and do not even know the simplest of facts…” – Fujibayashi Yasutake; 1676

The Kagi-nawa (a.k.a Uchikagi)
The Kagi-nawa (a.k.a Uchikagi), according to the Shoninki, is known as one of the six tools of the ninja. This ninja tool is found in many other historical ninjutsu texts, including the Bansenshukai (shown in picture).
Kagi-nawa translates out as: “hooked rope”. The kagi-nawa is a rope that has a hook attached to the end of it, and it would aid the ninja in: climbing, infiltration, extraction, tying people up to torture them, tying doors together to keep people from entering or exiting, building shelter and setting traps. The list of uses for the kagi-nawa/uchi-kagi can go on and on.

(Transcription)
“Regardless of class, a person who does something beyond his social standing will at some point commit mean or cowardly acts. In the lower classes there are even people who will run away. One should be careful with menials and the like.” – Yamamoto Tsunetomo; 1659-1719
(Translation)
All samurai (bushi) understand that there are hateful and mean people in society that will do anything to tear another down. This can come in all forms from and in the modern day we see: racism, prejudices, sexist, hate crimes, slander, online bullying, lying, cheating, rape, theft and assassination.
As practitioners of Budo, we need to recognize this and clearly see the difference between truth and fact and act appropriately to the situation.
If they are not samurai, than there is no need to show them your fighting technique, as one only fights in the last resort. A samurai you would never let a coward who is not face to face in front of you, get to you. All samurai understand, no person, place, thing or idea is strong enough to get in your head, unless you are weak enough to let them.
I hope that you understand today’s lesson and can see my interpretation of this wonderful classic text on samurai bujutsu.
Thank you all for your support!
Take care, be safe and good luck in your journey of Budo.

Bushido (武士道) The Way of the Samurai – Courage (勇)
Photo taken – 2.2012
Anshu Christa Jacobson teaching Hanbojutsu (半棒術) at the Budo Ryu Hombu Dojo
To see just cause and to not act, is lacking in courage.
When one finds oneself in a situation where there is an obvious right and wrong, yet remains silent for fear of loosing face, they prove nothing and show that they lack in the ability to stand up for their own beliefs. As a warrior one should be ashamed of oneself.
This is not to say that one should go out in search of conflict to show their strength, as this is foolishness as well. However; if conflict should present itself, one should have the courage, confidence and resolve to make themselves and their righteous beliefs known without fear of loosing something as trivial as public acceptance and stand up for what they believe in and have come to love.
I hope that you all enjoy the lesson.
Take Care, Be Safe and Good Luck in your Journey of Budo.

35 METHODS OF SRATEGY – HEIHO PART 5
35 INSTRUCTIONS ON SRATEGY – PART 4
Hyoho Sanju go kajo — Miyamoto Musashi; 1614
_________________________________________
In 1614 two years before he wrote the Gorin no sho (Book of the 5 Rings) Musashi wrote a work called “Thrity-five Instructions on Strategy”. It was written for Lord Hosokawa, by his guest Miyamoto Musashi. The Gorin no sho (Book of the 5 Rings) is considered a more elabora te piece off of this work.
To truly understand these teachings and the nature of this text is extremely difficult as Musashi used special terms and verbal meaning to express his respect for Lord Hosokawa, which is very hard to understand the exact meaning to translate into English.
In the translations I am using the terms that was used in the Gorin no sho (Book of the 5 Rings) as they are the more popular terms for identifying Miyamoto Musashi’s works.
STRATEGY NINE
(KNOWING THETHREE LEVELS OF STRATEGY)
Someone who adopts guard positions in strategy and displays different guard positions while handling the sword sometimes slowly, sometimes fast practices strategy of a low level. Someone who has refinement in strategy and who appears magnificent die to elegant bearing, practices at an intermediate level. The supreme strategy will appear neither strong nor weak; nether slow nor fast, neither magnificent nor bad, but broad, straight and calm. You should examine this well
(*note* in the test musashi uses the term “ge”, “chu” and “jo” when using these terms in expression, they are more than just low medium and high they also refer to level of skill or quality.)
STRATEGY TEN
(A GRADUATED CORD MEASURE)
You must always have a graduated cord measure in your mind. If you measure your opponent by adjusting the cord to him, you will be able to ascertain clearly his strengths and weakness, his straightness and crookedness, where he is relaxed and where he is tense. With this measure you must size up all aspects of your opponent – round, square, short, crooked or straight. You should examine this well.
STRATEGY ELEVEN
(THE PATHWAY OF THE SWORD)
Without knowing the pathway of the sword, you cannot handle it feely. You cannot properly slash you opponent if you put too much force into it, if you do not have a sense of the back and the side of the blade, if you shale the sword around like a knife or a spoon for serving rice. You must train in hitting you opponent well, always knowing the pathway of the sword and moving it calmly, following its weight.
I hope that you all enjoy your lessons today from the Hyoho Sanju go kajo. Thank you all for your support! I wish you all the best in your journey of the arts!
