Miyamoto Musashi: Sword Saint of Feudal Japan - Part 1

There is a term in Japan: kensei. Sword Saints. The peerless warriors bestowed with this honorific title were such hardcore blade-swinging warriors that they were actually believed to have possessed otherworldly abilities with their weapon of choice. Fierce fighters, perfectly-tuned machines who had ascended to a plane where they had become one with the sword.

At the forefront of this pantheon of warrior-gods stands one legendary man: Miyamoto Musashi. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices.
