Reviews for The Essence of Budo
What would a "ninja" know about Budo?
Essentially the whole ideology of ninjas is the opposite to that of the samurai (the latter believing in honour, fidelity, truth, etc).
If you want to know about the higher ideals promoted by martial arts like Judo, Aikido, Karatedo, Kendo, Kenjutsu, Jujutsu, Iaijutsu, why would you waste your time reading anything from some guy who not only gets others to believe they are real ninjas, but also charges them real money to indulge in this fantasy?!
Don't just stay away from this - run! And warn all else who may get suckered into this shyster. by Wesley Myers
