Kodo Ancient Ways: Lessons in the Spiritual Life of the Warrior/Martial Artist
by Reverend Kensho Furuya
A master swordsman, aikido teacher, renowned scholar and Harvard graduate, and an ordained Zen priest, Kensho Furuya brings over 35 years of experience together to open the mysterious doors of the East into the spiritual inner teachings of the martial arts. KODO Ancient Ways is many books in one; it is a book of Eastern philosophy, of the art of aikido, of the samurai sword and its ancient traditions, and of the warrior history and culture of Japan. It is a book of wisdom; it is a book for everyone. Fourty-one of the best articles of the popular Ancient Ways column in Martial Arts Training magazine are brought together for the first time. Along with nearly 150 illustrations and 40 never before published photos, Furuya has added much additional new commentary and notes to create an instant martial arts classic. A 6th dan in aikido from the Aikido World Headquarters and 6th dan kyoshi master instructor in iaido, Kensho Furuya is the resident chief instructor of the prestigious Aikido Center of Los Angeles, where he personally gives instruction daily. First rate all the way.

Victorian scholar Nitobe searched European archives for original sources and translated much of the material for this book from original Japanese texts.
