This book was translated for the purpose of research into how Japanese martial arts transitioned from techniques taught to Samurai for war into arts used to strengthen the mind and spirit in times of peace. The Japanese have been adept at Bojutsu, the art of fighting with a wooden staff, from days long past. Loyalty and reverence, the foundations of our national identity, are therefore deeply ingrained into it. Training with the Bo is no different than practicing any other martial art. It strengthens the mind and forges strong nerves. What I am advocating with Bujojutsu-Taiso, or Staff Exercise program, first requires us to place the deeper philosophical and theoretical aspects of this martial art aside and highlight two points that differentiate this martial art from the others. Bojutsu is not a typical offensive or killing weapon, instead this simple stick can be used to subdue an opponent armed with some sort of dangerous implement.
