Ninpo teaches us to connect to the sacred elements and the power of the universe; all of which is KI (気)… energy.

Everything is Energy. Match the vibration frequency of the reality you want, and you will achieve that of which you connect to. This is deeper than just ninjutsu, this is everything in your life…

How The Ninja Used The TenChiJin (天地人) Ninjutsu Martial Arts Training Techniques (Ninpo)



In this video, I teach how the ninja used the TenChiJin as a fundamental method of martial arts training, to enhance their warrior strategy and their ninjutsu/ninpo techniques.

.

In the Tomo-ryu tradition, there are three sections of training called the Tenchijin no Ho (Methods of Heaven, Earth, and Man).  Each of these three sections of training has its own principals, strategies, and philosophies in war, life, and spiritual refinement.

.

- Tenton Jupppo (天遁十法; 10 methods of heavenly escape)

- Chiton Jupppo (地遁十法; 10 methods of earthly escape)

- Jinton Jupppo (人遁十法; 10 methods of mankind escape)

.

The Tenchijin refers to the connection of energy that we have to the heavens that we pray to and the earth that we walk on.  Without understanding this feeling, you cannot have the connection.  Without the connection, you cannot understand the feeling.  The Tenchijin is more than simple warrior survival strategies, but strategies on life and spiritual refinement as well.

Seizonjutsu: Survival Training within Historical Ninjutsu | Ninja Martial Arts (Ninpo)




Facebook Post Here:

In this video, “Survival Training within Historical Ninjutsu”, I discuss a specific “jutsu” within the training of Tomo-ryu Shinobijutsu called seizonjutsu.  This is a specific aspect of training within Tomo-ryu, which is much different than that of other more popular ninjutsu ryuha such as Togakure-ryu Ninpo Taijutsu.
.
Schools such as the Bujinkan, Genbukan, Jinenkan, etc have never formally had “survival training”, in their curriculum.  There has never been a time that you see Masaaki Hatsumi or any other “Togakure-ryu” practitioner in Japan teach: primitive fire making, how to disinfect water while living off of the land, how to build shelters, tracking and survival skills.  Ever… They teach taijutsu, kobujutsu, etc.  That is not me being disrespectful towards them at all. That is me stating a fact.
.
I could say the same thing towards other martial arts such as: Taekwondo, Karate, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Aikido. They do not teach survival skills either as part of their martial art curriculum.  Again, that is not me being mean or hateful.  It is me stating a fact.
.
In 2010, I started making seizonjutsu lessons and posts more available in the public and in 2011, I wrote a book (Shinobi no Michi; The Way of the Ninja) detailing the importance of seizonjutsu and its importance within historical ninjutsu training. Then out of no where, all of these people that were trashing me, from these other organizations started teaching “Seizonjutsu”.  Some of them are even from some of the organizations that I stated above.
.
In the Budo Ryu Kai, we have 7 warrior traditions and the Togakure-ryu is one of them.  There is no “Seizonjutsu” in Togakure-ryu. I teach Togakure-ryu.  Like I stated above; There are no videos or books of Masaaki Hatsumi rubbing sticks to create primitive fire. Just look at the Togakure-ryu densho. There is nothing at all written about primitive survival training. However, there are many things that are specific to the Togakure-ryu, that are not found in any other ninjutsu ryuha as well.  But this post is not about Togakure-ryu, it is about Seizonjutu, which is a specific skill within Tomo-ryu. So anyone who is teaching Togakure-ryu and is adding “Seizonjutsu” to their curriculum got it from watching and reading my materials…
.
I will say there is a “grey area” with survival training within Togakure-ryu. As a teacher of the Togakure-ryu, I help many other teachers of this particular ryuha and they ask me many questions. The reason that “Seizonjutsu” is NOT within the Togakure-ryu is because they have a set of teachings called the TenChiJin and the individual skills, such as use of water (suiton) use of fire (katon) and so on are found in the TenChiJin.  So if you are a Togakure-ryu instructor.  Your survival teachings (if you are sticking to the densho) would be in the TenChiJin aspect of training. So if you teach the Togakure-ryu, shouldn’t call it Seizonjutsu, you should be calling it what is written in the densho, and that aspect of part of the TenChiJin.
