About this listen
Hagakure: A New Modern Translation
"The Way of the Samurai is found in death."
From the seclusion of the mountains, Yamamoto Tsunetomo dictates the uncompromising essence of the warrior spirit to the scribe Tashiro Tsuramoto. Hagakure transcends the combat manual to become a spiritual guide on the absolute loyalty and mental discipline of the Nabeshima clan.
This work teaches that accepting the inevitable end liberates man from fear, allowing for pure action without hesitation. It is an invitation to abandon calculating logic and live with "death frenzy" (shinigurui): an existence where constant preparation, compassion, and selfless service transform every instant into a moral work of art.
