The way of the warrior
The way of the warrior is the way of the void. The void is nothingness, complete non-existence. Practice your way so that you may live in the moment, nothing moves or disturbs you. In your way, there you exist, nothing more, nothing less in complete stillness of body and soul. Here you and your way are one. What you need to achieve is second nature. You live your way, free from the world.
