Product Description
Millions of readers have thrilled to the astonishing true adventures of the tiny peasant who achieved ultimate prosperity during history's most turbulent epoch. Now, The Prosperous Peasant reveals the Secrets that guided him--and successful people the world over--since time began.
A colorful cast of teachers--the peasant-turned-samurai Hideyoshi, Kembo the Vengeful Priest, Fernao the Portuguese trader, the brilliant strategist Nobunaga, Daizen the ronin, and many others--bring to life five ageless Secrets of Fortune and Fulfillment in parables whose beauty and truthfulness haunts and inspires.
The key to Prosperity, readers learn, lies not in "techniques" or "strategies" but in ancient knowledge drawn from the great philosophies of China and Japan--wisdom more fundamental than any "how-to" advice.
Forged in an extraordinary collaboration between an acclaimed novelist and a Japan specialist who made his own fortune, The Prosperous Peasant will teach, charm, and motivate--but above all, its powerful message may change your life.
Begin your journey to prosperity and fulfillment today. Heed the ageless wisdom of The Prosperous Peasant!
