Auch wenn ich Musashi ziemlich cool finde und mich freue seine Biografie zu lesen, dieses Buch war nicht so gut. Paar coole Sachen sind dabei, aber mit dem meisten Zeug kannst du nichts anfangen.

Wieso auch immer, wiederholt Musashi auch die ganze Zeit dieselben Phrasen, das war ehrlich zu viel.

I loved reading this book. At first it was hard to apply the principles of martial arts and sword combat, but I eventually found these beautiful nuggets of advice on how one should conduct himself and the discipline required for the highest level of success. I would liken reading this to be almost a spiritual experience. It made me want to be better at committing to things in life.

Kind of interesting from a historical point of view. It was cool to read about Miyamoto Musashi’s lifestyle and a bit of the lifestyle of that time. My personal version of this book comes with a 128-page book and a deck of 52 cards that has quotes from Musashi and modern explanations at the back. Most of the content in the book is centered around the long sword, so it is not very intuitive for the reader. The cards are actually pretty nice as Musashi’s wisdom in the book is “confusing” because the lifestyles of that time differ so much from modern japanese lifestyles let alone western ones.

Overall, cool little book but would only recommend getting it if you get a cool display version like a leatherbound or like the version I have with the cards (which comes with a little foldable paper/plastic stand for them).


Book Rating: 5.5
