“This is the substance of the Way of the Samurai: if by setting one's heart right every morning and evening, one is able to live as though his body were already dead, he gains freedom in the Way.
his whole life will be without blame, and he will succeed in his calling.”
― Yamamoto Tsunetomo

That is a yoga style.
"Tummo (Tibetan: gtum-mo; Sanskrit: caṇḍālī) is a form of Yoga, found in the Six Yogas of Naropa,[1] Lamdre, Kalachakra and Anuyoga teachings of Tibetan Vajrayana. Tummo originally derives from Indian Vajrayana tradition, including the instruction of the Mahasiddha Krishnacarya and the Hevajra Tantra. The purpose of tummo is to gain control over body processes during the completion stage of 'highest yoga tantra' (Anuttarayoga Tantra) or Anuyoga."
What does bushido have to do with it? Unless you kids wanna get into the "mind over matter" affair. Reaching a mind state of peace or tranquility, or just focus, stances, and making your sword apart of your body? Open palm, or a closed fist, is the best analogy I can make of what you guys are trying to get at.
Other then that, the traditions are completely different in style, as well as history.

Let me ask you a question....Why is it that the Romans an Greeks denied the power of Jesus to raise the dead. When in reality they, in there history acknowledged the existence of ASCLEPIUS???

Is it because Jesus was not a member of the Roman Elite System ?
