The real way of the warrior is based on compassion, wisdom, fearlessness, and love of nature—as the inspirational teachings in this collection show. The selections are drawn from the talks and writings of Morihei Ueshiba, founder of the popular Japanese martial art of aikido, a mind-body discipline that offers a nonviolent way to victory in the face of conflict. Sensitively translated by John Stevens, this lovely hardcover edition features examples of Ueshiba’s calligraphy and includes a reading of the text on one audio CD.

This beautifully rendered collection of the teachings of the founder of Aikido holds an important message about the importance of inner strength to overcome violence. It is fascinating to read the Sensei's thoughts on spirituality and religion as well.
