For centuries, the Japanese samurai were the unquestioned leaders of their society, maintaining their position through their iron will, Zen-like emotional control, and clan-building social skills.

In this ultimate guide to making use of the authentic samurai practices and techniques in today’s world, learn how to control your mind and emotions, stay on the path until you have achieved mastery of your chosen art, build a network of loyal followers, defend your home from physical and psychic attack, use samurai spirituality and even magic—and much more.
Antony Cummins is the author of Ninja Skills and The Ultimate Art of War, among many other books on the ways of the East. He is the leader of a project to resurrect the authentic Natori Ryu samurai school and provide the first English translations of their 17th-century training manuals.
