9 mental powers of the Ninja

[dre_doggX]

I bought Mind Control by Ashida Kim, it does really teach Mind Control but is an introductory to mental powers, one is mind reading.

This 9 powers have a hand postion, to activate qi channels, in his other book which is at his website they explan the positions more clearly.

from what I have read, Ninjutsu came not just from the kungfu fighting systems, but by chinese, philosophy, war strategy and martial arts(kungfu I guess).

Ashida Kim is a fake and has been discussed to death.
Do a search on it.

The Legitimate Ninpo arts are the Bujinkan (http://www.kabuto.nu) the Genbukan (http://www.genbukan.org) and theJinenkan (http://www.jinenkan.com)

I always suspected that ninjas were mental :D

The taijutsu webite is rocks! The guitar intro is pretty cool but it reminds me of that kid with the funny website about ninjas flipping out and wailing guitars.

That's great but ewhat is ninpo?

[shinbushi]

The music is a short clip of Iron Maidens 2 minutes to midnight. Ninpo means the law or method of the ninja (lit. endurance or stealth) It is kinda the Bushido of the ninja. It is also used to describe their combat method ninpo taijutsu. tecniqually ninjutsu is all the stealthy spy/guerilla fighter stuff. Which has not really been taught in the Bujinkan but ninpo taijutsu has.
