Summary: Essence of the ninja
Comment: At its core, Wisdom From The Ninja Village Of The Cold Moon is an extraordinarily beautiful book of poetry. The maki-mono scrolls of the ninja clan's collected knowledge and wisdom inspire the compositional style of the book. If there is one book which can break the ... view of the black garbed ninja, this is it. Rather than focusing on what weapons the ninja uses or what fighting style he or she employs, this book reaches into the heart of the ninja. Hayes brings the philosophy and responsibilities of the ninja to the forefront by exploring everything from the need for harmony with the surrounding natural world:
"Become one with the small animals of the forest.
Teach them not to fear you.
Move with natural gentleness through the realm
You share with them." (Hayes)
To controlling one's inward feelings:
"Do not hate
and your enemy will not know that you bring his
destruction.
Do not fear
And you will not be controlled." (Hayes)
This book is necessary for the true practitioner of ninjutsu to understand that the most powerful weapons are not what is held in the hand, but what is harbored in the heart and the mind. Even for the more casual reader, truths to dealing with everyday problems will come forth from this book. A masterpiece to be treasured upon any bookshelf.

Summary: Ninja Scroll by an American Master
Comment: This was written in the style of the traditional teaching scroll inherited down the lineage among Ninja clans, pointing to their traditional teachings, but leaving much to the oral lessons of Master - student relationship. A great read!
