If you are not already familiar, Miyamoto Musashi (宮本武蔵, c. 1584 – June 13, 1645) is arguably one of Japan’s most famous swordsmen. He is the author of Go Rin No Sho, or The Book of 5 Rings, one of the most widely read yet probably least understood guides to strategy ever written.
The Book of 5 Rings is divided into (as you might expect) 5 chapters. Within the first chapter, The Ground Book(or “earth” depending on which translation),
he outlines his broad principles of strategy, he gives 9 principles for those who wish to study his way:
1.Do not think dishonestly.
2.The Way is in training.
3.Become acquainted with every art.
4.Know the Ways of professions.
5.Distinguish between gain and loss in worldly matters.
6.Develop intuitive judgement and understanding for everything.
7.Perceive those things which cannot be seen.
8.Pay attention even to trifles.
9.Do nothing which is of no use.
He then goes on to say how important it is to set these broad principles in your heart in order to begin learning the way of strategy.
