Simple but wise teachings laid out next to many lovely Japanese paintings

If your already on your own way to enlightenment, and you have chosen the way of the warrior, this book reads like a guide to life. Take a page a day. Sometimes it will shock, sometimes it will show you recognition of what your going through; but it always will make you think. If you're a warrior, you'll know what I'm talking about.
The book is a blend of Bushido and Zen wisdom. Following the Bushido code in your own way? buy it. If you don't know what I'm talking about, leave it be, and start reading this first > Living the Martial Way : A Manual for the Way a Modern Warrior Should Think

But the text isn't bad either. This is a smaller sized book, only about 5 by 7 inches, slightly larger than standard paperback size. The author has written a modern personal Tao Te Ching. Uplifting brief paragraphs acompany vivid and colorful prints from China and Japan.

This little volume offers an opportunity to take a short jaunt away from the usual humdrum. It's perfect for next to the computer (while waiting for things to download), waiting in line at the post office, or on top of the toilet tank (you need an explanation?).
