Learnings
The softest of stuff in the world
Penetrates quickly the hardest;
Insubstantial, it enters
Where no room is.

By this I know the benefit
Of something done by quiet being;
In all the world but few can know
Accomplishment apart from work,
Instruction when no words are used.


Tao Te Ching


The water and the Way (Tao) permeate everything, with no effort, no sense of doing. The use of Water is also meant to reflect the importance of work as a sustaining and fulfilling activity, and the reference to an intuitive learning method.

It is through practice of skills in private and the use of these skills in public situations can one truly grasp the essence of the Way and Musashi's Heiho.
