The School of the Red Samurai

Hello Enlightened Samurai Readers,

Welcome to the School of the Red Samurai, the Warrior of Ambition. He is here to bestow the superior knowledge of Passion and Belief.

This is his message:

I symbolize the human capacity to achieve the extraordinary and thrive in the utmost difficulty! For I have mastered the virtues of passion and belief.
My school shall teach you to adopt these virtues as well.

Demons of the Mind

Never bend the knee to the mind, when the mind is given power, it becomes a demonic presence

What hinders self-esteem is most often negative voices in our heads. We can never tap into our most creative and joyful selves if we do not witness our thoughts. Simply be the watcher of your thoughts, a watcher who gives no judgment.

To the faithful, I am a beacon of hope, a symbol of what can be achieved when one is fueled by true belief. To the heretics and unbelievers, I am a storm, a relentless force that will not be swayed or diminished. I am the defiant voice in the wilderness, proclaiming the power of unwavering faith.

Behold my School!

The Cultivation of Tejas, Creative Energy

Tejas is the passionate energy that fuels life and creativity in Vedic Science. It is considered one of the three subtle energies of the mind. It is the inner fire that drives individuals to pursue their goals with vigour and enthusiasm.

We can acquire Tejas when we improve our vitality and presence. we can do this through a variety of practices and lifestyle choices.

You should first have a positive mindset and practice gratitude to significantly impact your emotional well-being, leading to a more radiant and joyful presence.

You should also practice techniques such as mindfulness meditation, loving-kindness meditation, or mantra meditation to acquire Tejas.

However, The most effective practice is Pranayama. Pranayama techniques help control and expand the life force (prana) within the body to be converted into Tejas.

Other ways to improve vitality are exercise, a healthy diet, sunlight, cold/hot exposure, yoga and higher testosterone.

Passion is The Essence of Creation

Speaking from personal experience, when you give yourself entirely to your passion, you can experience an extraordinary feeling of success. It's a sensation that your endeavours have already succeeded. This feeling arises when you commit fully to your deep-seated passion, without hesitation and without doubt. When you immerse yourself completely, believing wholeheartedly in your vision, the rest becomes history.

My heart beats with the fervor of a thousand suns, for I gave myself entirely to my passions.

Belief Triumphs over Everything

Every great dream, every great accomplishment, was powered by an unclenching belief. It is the invisible force that transforms visions into reality, a catalyst that turns ordinary individuals into extraordinary achievers.

It’s this belief that propels explorers to venture into the unknown, artists to paint masterpieces, and innovators to revolutionize the world. Without belief, there would be no light bulb, no moon landing, no symphonies.

Belief can make you sane in the darkest times.

BELIEF CONQUERS ANYTHING

God willing, you will never lose belief in yourself.
Know that Belief has a divine aspect.
