Welcome to book 3 in the Tesaihiryu Ninja series. If you are new to martial arts consider yourself a lucky. You are as an empty canvas awaiting its first stroke of paint. Allow us to first provide you a bit of background for your portrait by introducing the basic foundation of the Tesaihiryu Ninja. Tesaihiryu began its official development over 20 years ago, but even today it is alive with new growth. We like to see that our disciples are knowledgeable on an unprecedented level, which cannot be capped. The source of wisdom we seek to bring forth in our students, comes not from us alone, but from within. If we guide your hand through every stroke of your creation, the final image on your canvas will look distinguishably similar to our own. But if we provide you with a large array of brushes and colors that you can combine into multitudes of combinations, we believe you will learn to tap that eternal source that so many have let fall dormant with age.
The mere word `Ninja' conjures up images of ancient hidden secret powers and flawless execution of tumbling and fighting. It is true that the ninja must literally perfect every tiny movement that his body can manage in order to achieve these feats, but also one must learn to focus the mind and listen to the rhythm of the universe.
The mission is what the ninja lives for. In life, the mission is perfection of life itself. In the field, the mission is the motivation that keeps the student aware of his own training needs. To KNOW that you may be called upon for a mission in the back of your mind, is the single secret that drives the engine of ninja training.
Volume 3 brings to you whole new variety of Jutsu and mission tactics. Join us, as we leave our dreams of being ninja behind, and take hold of lives as ninja now.
