DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is the author's attempt to present what is probably the most important aspect of ninjutsu in print. Of course, philosophy is very important to the ninja, but since technique is a reflection of philosophy, careful study of this book should shed some light on the ideas that were used, and are still followed today, by the "Shadow Warrior." This book is, in many ways, a companion work to the author's "Traditional Ninja Weapons." However, the present work presents many new ideas about ninjutsu, which hopefully will help the reader gain a fuller understanding of this fascinating, albeit often misunderstood, martial art. In this work, the author has outlined a general overview of taijutsu while remaining as true as possible to the art's traditional form. There are, of course, many special cases that have not been included in the book because of space considerations. As always, the author would like to extend his thanks to the many instructors and training partners that have made this book possible.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNinja . . . that single word conjures up images of mystery and power. The ability to move swiftly and silently, to mesmerize one's victim, to strike infallibly, and then to disappear into the night--this is the legend of the ninja. These nearly sorcerous aspects of the ninja, as well as the exotic weapons they use, are the focus of The Mystic Arts of the Ninja. Its author, Shidoshi Stephen K. Hayes, is the sole American to be granted teaching credentials by the 34th grandmaster of the Togokure School of Ninjutsu in Japan. Going beyond the basic conditioning and training techniques of his best-selling Ninjutsu: The Art of the Invisible Warrior, Hayes explains the most sought after secrets of his ninja training: Hypnotism: Saiminjutsu, the ninja's hypnotic powers are described and explained. Sample exercises are provided to help develop your hypnotic powers. Invisibility: Stealth walking and camouflage are discussed. Hayes provides examples of how to move silently across various kinds of terrain and how to blend into your surroundings to become invisible. Weaponry: The Hanbo cane, the sword, and the infamous shuriken throwing stars are ninja trademarks. Hayes fully describes their use in grappling as well as in attacking. More than 400 black-and-white photos are used to illustrate the secrets and techniques that have been used by the ninja to surprise and outwit their foes over the past 800 years. The authenticity of Shidoshi Hayes's instruction is perhaps the most important aspect of this book: no other book represents the true ninja tradition.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe classic text on the mystical traditions of the ninja now decoded in English • The path of the ninja as an authentic spiritual discipline • Details the art of concealment and espionage, including methods of disguise, survival techniques, and face reading • A ninja response to the Samurai Bushido and the way to mind-body harmony Experts in disguise, infiltration, espionage, and counterintelligence, the ninja had spiritual values and magical traditions that distinguished them from the soldierlike samurai. Their art of ninjutsu, invisible as well as indispensable, was transmitted in secret schools and relied on only a few books, which were written in code. The Shoninki, one of the most important of these coded manuals, was written in 1681 by Master Ninja Natori Masazumi. Presenting all facets of the art of concealment, espionage, and physical prowess, including methods of disguise and survival techniques, this source text also contains teachings on spiritual meditations, psychic powers, the art of face reading, controlling the emotions, and magic spells. Revealing the connection between the ninja and the yamabushi--warrior monks who were endowed with supernatural powers--this classic text confirms the path of the ninja as an authentic spiritual discipline, one of self-realization and detachment and the way to mind-body harmony.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis masterfully crafted guide to ninjitsu or budo explores in depth the history, culture and philosophy of this fascinating and enduring Japanese martial art. Budo is one of the least understood forms of art in the world. Even more than skills or techniques, the teachings of budo require faith to learn and courage to understand. One of the fundamental teachings of budo is ninjutsu, the art of perseverance that forms the basis of the Japanese martial arts. The lessons in this book come directly from experiencing the living vitality of the world's foremost master of the ninja arts, Masaaki Hatsumi. Through the use of stories, poetry, art, and earned wisdom, the authors move beyond the common image of the martial arts and reveal the nature of the unexpected changes in themselves as they struggled to come to terms with what being a martial artist in the ninja tradition meant. The Art of Life and Death is a reflection of the discipline, the aesthetics, and the philosophy that lies hidden within the martial way. It is a glimpse at the hidden potential of the martial arts, one where the practitioner can embrace transcendence and transformation in order to face all the fears that litter life and also life's most fearsome opponent: Death.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere are lots of great devotional books and discipleship guides out there, but The Art of the Christian Ninja is different. The name ""The Art of The Christian Ninja"" was birthed from an encounter with God that spawned an unshakable thought: the critical importance of the secret side of the Christian faith. This book was written to inspire believers to build their relationship with God in ways that no one else sees. This is more than a simple Bible study or discipleship manual. It's a partnership between art and writing, black ink and white space, a tying together of teaching and questions, meditation and practice, humour and study. It's a journey, a meditation, a conversation, a long walk, and a training ground to help believers connect their faith and life and become the Christian Ninjas God wants to help them be. ""An interesting account of the old Ninja mythology and how it can be turned to the Christian's advantage. It should be a valuable source of spiritual help to readers who need and want to grow and become more effective."" --Charles Dondale, Retired Arachnologist ""This book really lends itself to building up Christians to defend themselves against the attack of the enemy. Learning to be stealthy and effective is especially relevant in our culture of intolerance towards Christians. I see this book as being complimentary to C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters in which Lewis shows the inner workings of the enemy. Pastor Allan shows us tools to combat the enemy in practical, reflective and effective ways."" --Steve Bastian, Teacher ""A handy tool for developing Christians. The advice and teachings within are concise, yet informative, and each chapter is just the right length to be a daily lesson. You can then take what you have been taught and work with it throughout your day, returning to review the Ninja Meditations in the evening to see how you did. The process of changing your life into that of a Christian Ninja is here at your fingertips "" --Mary Ellen McLellan, Homemaker, Equine Specialist ""A 'How to Grow' manual for new believers and mature believers alike. Each chapter focuses on a discipline that needs to exist in each believer's life in order to have a strong walk with God. If you're looking to strengthen your relationship with your Lord but don't know where to start, this ninja training manual will set you on your way."" --Michael Kruszelnicki, Engineer, Youth Leader Allan Descheneau is a preacher, writer, podcaster, and pastor of Beckwith Baptist Church near Ottawa, Ontario. His passion is helping people find the tools and inspiration they need to pursue a deep, consistent, and meaningful relationship with God.
