The greatest power of the warrior mind its its ability to act from Mushin, a state of "no mind". Just as a mirror reflects objhects without clinging to the images, the warrior mind is free to flow from one object to the next without impediment. From this state arises an instinctive wisdom, which the author, a black belt and Zen master, hopes to awaken in his readers. This wisdom is in each of us but is counteracted daily by the false mind and its endless projections. The task at hand is to still the mind to the point where the action and actor are a seamless thread.
Daily life is the battlefied for the warrior mind. The author shows us how to flow into the affairs of the day, meeting the rising and falling of circumstnace, and learning to trust our true selves once again. With the power of the life energy itself, no one ever need walk in fear again.
