Musashi

"Miyamoto Musashi has gone down in history as an iconic figure. This samurai, the most famous of old Japan, represents key aspects of the bushido spirit of the land of the rising sun. He participated in some of the pivotal battles of his day that established Tokugawa rule and ushered in the long Edo period. He also developed magnificent skills in poetry, calligraphy, painting, tea ceremony, garden design and Zen meditation. He was the author of one of the classic texts on the martial arts, Go Rin No Sho, or Treatise on Five Wheels. All this makes Musashi an almost mythological figure, a poet-soldier who is still a source of inspiration today."--
