The Ninja are a mysterious warrior elite said to be so spiritually advanced they knew the mind and will of God. Regarded with awe as masters of invisibility and "warriors of the shadow-self," their legendary skills include the ability to command the elements and transform themselves into Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Void--the nothingness from which all things stem. In this book Ross Heaven reveals the training exercises and mental discipline used by the Ninja to develop these extraordinary physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual skills. Central to Ninja philosophy is the understanding that there is no higher power than the actualized human being. The Ninja believe there are four gates to freedom, and to pass through them we must overcome four initiatory ordeals. Succeeding at these enables us to combat fear, find true power, clarify our vision, and overcome the soul fatigue that is at the root of our personal and social problems in order to embrace our positive energies and realize our talents. Ross Heaven guides us through these four gateways with exercises and initiations that utilize the energy of the lover, seeker, magus, soul warrior, and mystic as well as dealing with their shadow manifestations that may be causing problems in our lives. We learn how to break the destructive habits of the past and create a bushido, a personal code to live by. Without initiation, we cannot access and channel our energies; they remain uncontrolled or even work against us. Ross Heaven provides the key that allows us to turn these elemental forces into allies.

I bought this book as something of a joke for a friend - nicknamed "The Ninja" for his ability to get things done on his own. My expectation was that the tone of the book would be like the old Hong Kong Kung Fu movies - sensational and filled with helpful suggestions like, "in order to walk up the side of a wall, you must first master the art of becoming weightless. Now, are you weightless? Good. Place your right foot on the wall and lean into the wall...then, move your left foot from the ground and place above your right foot. Run to the top of the wall. Isn't it greate to be able to walk up walls now?!
In looking it over prior to giving it to him, I was impressed with the author's sincerity and focus on the spiritual aspect of this discipline. I find myself looking for another copy for myself...
