Hanna Maarit JauhiainenUsein iltaisin istun työhuoneella ikkuna auki, kynttilöiden valossa, kuunnellen mustarastaan laulua ja tarkastellen päivän työn tuloksia. Tämä pieni apina loistaen kynttilän valoa muistuttaa minua aina ihmisen olevaisuudesta; kuinka tavoittelemme maallista mainetta ja materiaa, unohtaen niin helposti olla tässä hetkessä läsnä; avoimena ja nöyrin mielin, silti ylpeänä omasta itsestään ja eläen itsensä näköistä elämää. Kultainen apina symbolisoi minulle ilkikurisuutta, myös liiallista itsetietoisuutta ja jopa julkeutta. Katsellen tuota pientä kitschimäistä otusta, maadoitan itseni tähän hetkeen ja asiat saavat oman paikkansa ja arvonsa; Me ihmiset olemme aikamoisia kultaisia apinoita. Sen tiedostaen on helpompi olla ihan vain oma itsensä, omine haavoittuvuuksineen, vajavaisuuksineen ja vahvuuksineen. Ihanaa ja levollista iltaa juuri Sinulle!

Reality Fragments I like looking into the background of quotes that I come across – I source just about everything I write, with the exception of what is imagination or opinion. In doing so this morning, I was thinking of using a quote by Musashi, and I thought to use:“Truth is not what you want it to be, it is what it is, and must bend to it’s power or live a lie”. I went to my copy of the Book of Five Rings, which is pretty much where all legitimate Musashi quotes come from. That quote wasn’t there. I check Project Gutenberg for the book, since they would likely have an older copy, but strangely they do not have that book – which should be in the public domain by now! – at all1. No one who uses the quote cites a source. No one.It seems that this was something added by D.E. Tarver in his rendition of Musashi’s “Book of Five Rings”- but apparently it’s not in the original Japanese. No texts by Musashi seem to have this quotation. This does not mean it doesn’t express some of his teachings, such as in the Dokkodo – accepting things the way they are, though extrapolating to living a lie does not seem to be something he actually did. The fact that this quote circulates so much is pretty much the exact opposite of what his teaching would be. <a href="https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/dynamic-translation/db4762949fa5bd824a19d68773d98b3ea7dcf457.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">これは翻訳者によって追加されたようです。(Kore wa hon’yaku-sha ni yotte tsuika sa reta yōdesu.)</a><ol><li>Someone should get on that.

MariaHeute gefreut, weil Band 1 von Takehiko Inoues „<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Vagabond" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vagabond</a>“ bekommen. Manga-Freundinnen kennen ihn von Slam Dunk, ich wollte das ewig lesen, weil er in Vagabond die Geschichte von Miyamoto <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Musashi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Musashi</a> nacherzählt. Werd nicht kennt: Der Roman von Yoshikawa ist sehr unterhaltsam (und brutal). <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/freecomicbookday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freecomicbookday</a>

Darnell Clayton :verified:Book: Miyamoto Musashi (By Eiji Yoshikawa) <a href="https://youtu.be/mZXjksJLpAI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/mZXjksJLpAI</a> If you are a fan of Japan 🇯🇵, Japanese history, samurai or just a good novel, then I suggest reading Miyamoto Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa. It is a novelized recount about the life of Japan’s 🇯🇵 greatest swordsman & it starts out with (slight spoiler warning).. ..the ending of an epic battle! What I loved about this book is that it highlights the cunning of battle tactics of a swordsman at a time crossbows & hand guns were beginning to enter history. Tactics on how to fight a group, when to draw a weapon, how to avoid trouble & how to engage close friends trying to kill you (yeah, it gets really crazy!). This book is not without controversy as there are some scenes/events that take place where you will hate Musashi (I will not spoil that here). But overall the book does a great job of humanizing a legend, one who mastered & popularized two sword fighting techniques (ironically in the middle of a battle! Sheesh!). Sword fighting aside, there is also some excellent philosophy discussed, which I will not get into much here. A great read if you are into books—provided you can stomach the violence (there is a lot!!!). <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/Japan" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Japan</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/JapaneseHistory" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JapaneseHistory</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/Miyamoto" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Miyamoto</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/Musashi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Musashi</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/MiyamotoMusashi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MiyamotoMusashi</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/Samurai" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Samurai</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/Swords" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Swords</a> <a href="https://darnell.moe/tags/Books" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Books</a>
