Body and soul captured by the Ninja
Not moving only with the whole body, but with the soul also.
Tengu
 |
| Tengu and a Buddhist monk / Kawanabe Kyōsai |
Οι Tengu είναι ένας τύπος θρυλικού πλάσματος που βρίσκεται στη σιντοϊστική πίστη. Θεωρούνται τύπος yōkai (υπερφυσικά όντα) ή Shinto kami (θεοί ή πνεύματα).
Οι Tengu αρχικά θεωρούνταν ότι έπαιρναν τις μορφές των αρπακτικών πτηνών και μιας θεότητας πιθήκου και παραδοσιακά απεικονίζονταν με χαρακτηριστικά ανθρώπου, πιθήκου και πτηνών.
Το Sarutahiko Ōkami θεωρείται το αρχικό μοντέλο του Konoha-Tengu (ένα υπερφυσικό πλάσμα με κόκκινο πρόσωπο και μακριά μύτη), το οποίο σήμερα θεωρείται ευρέως το καθοριστικό χαρακτηριστικό του Tengu στη λαϊκή φαντασία.
Είναι η θεότητα του Σιντοϊσμού πιθήκου που λέγεται ότι ρίχνει φως στον Ουρανό και τη Γη.
Μερικοί ειδικοί θεωρούν ότι ο Sarutahiko ήταν θεός του ήλιου που λατρευόταν στην περιοχή Ise πριν από τη διάδοση του Amaterasu.

THE HIDDEN LINEAGE – IN SEARCH OF THE HISTORY OF THE TOGAKURE RYU
***UPDATE on: THE HIDDEN LINEAGE – IN SEARCH OF THE HISTORY OF THE TOGAKURE RYU*** Many have been asking me when the Togakure Ryu history book that includes the information about Toda will be ready. Honestly, I am slightly behind schedule due to several long business trips with my day job but I still plan to be finished with the rewriting and editing by the end of May. So, if things go really well I may have copies at the end of May. But by the latest I should have everything ready in June. I am also opening a new website in conjunction with the book to promote the BKR Dojo’s new member’s only content. I will still always be writing and posting for free here on Facebook but this will be for my personal students and for those who want more in depth videos and articles along with the chance to earn rank in the BKR syllabus created by myself and approved by Hatsumi Soke and Noguchi Dai-Shihan in 2001. There will be monthly live training webinars included for members.
TOSHITSUGU TAKAMATSU TAKAMATSU SENSEI O’Sensei Takamatsu
TOSHITSUGU TAKAMATSU TAKAMATSU SENSEI O’Sensei Takamatsu 33rd Soke of Togakure Ryu Ninjutsu – “The last living true Ninja” O’Sensei Takamatsu (as we at ABD call him) was born in the 23rd year of Meiji (10th March 1887), in Akashi, Hyogo province. His given name was Hisatsugu but he later changed the name (using the same kanji characters but different pronunciation) to Toshitsugu. O’Sensei Takamatsu was one of the greatest martial artists to ever live. He not only practiced his art …. he lived it and victoriously fought many to the death battles from challengers. He began his training at an early age. His grandfather, Toda Shinryuken Masamitsu, had a bone clinic, and a Budo Dojo in Kobe.
Hensōjutsu (変装術)
Hensōjutsu (変装術) was a Japanese martial art skill involving disguise, impersonation, and infiltration. In some ninja clans it was known as the "Shichi Hō De" (七方出?) or, "seven ways of going" (one form of ninjutsu that has a person play a role much like an actor does in impersonating people). A ninja had to appear either as a priest, samurai, merchant, craftsman, performer, puppeteer, or farmer.
