Samurai Secrets Revealed: English Translation of the 500-year-old ‘Sword Scroll’ Provides Fighting Tactics Including ‘Egg Them’
 

A medieval samurai text recently translated into English gives many practical tips on fighting an enemy and advises all warriors to be ‘pure of heart and in balance in their spirit’. Although presumed written by two members of the highly equipped samurai elite, it interestingly provides instructions on how to make a homemade projectile from everyday kitchen items. The translator says there are many other Japanese martial arts texts remain to be translated.
