Great book about the warrior ways of enlightenment

Posted by Michael Aalto, Shidoshi-Ho on 23rd Sep 2011

The author of this book Shidoshi Ricardo Zapata is a great martial artist and he represents the art of Ninjutsu Budo Taijutsu in the way it should be represented to the outer world including it's inner Ninpo aspects as well as taijutsu and weapons. Although I have read many books and watched hundreds of videos about the subject Ricardo's book still offered me lots of new insights I have not seen anywhere else. It will not make justice for the book to call it basic, although it has demonstrations about many basic techniques. In the book taijutsu in it's nature is fundamental but the author represents much higher subjects about the art as well and it's philosophy that far exceeds the basic part of our art. I am very proud to say that in International Bujinkan Dojo Association (where I also am part of) has such teachers like Shidoshi Ricardo Zapata with that much deep information about the do and the way of the warrior.
