Tomaranu Kokoro - No Stopping

It’s been called the secret essence of the Samurai. If you have ever seen a Samurai, perhaps even in a film, you will have seen Tomaranu Kokoro.

It is a whirlwind of action, of constant motion. There is a constant flow of motion in their body which extended from their mind. “Without once stopping he attacks, feints, cuts, slashes, turns, leaps, spins, and thrusts in a whirlwind of action” DJ Rogers

No stopping to worry.

No stopping to ask what if.

No stopping to ask why.

It is when your thoughts get trapped and you start overthinking, and over analysing everything that your life comes to a screeching halt.

If you stop mid battle, or even pause, you will lost your head.

Remember, Tomaranu Kokoro, “The mind that knows no stopping”
