Book content

...It only took me a week to learn meditation, a common exercise practiced among the people of Sundanar and Bhadjarath. Don't let its seemingly straightforward nature trick you - noticeable results only come with experience.

Unfortunately, I never had the patience for hours-long training sessions, a vital prerequisite for reaching the true mastery. Each person has to decide for themselves how much effort they are willing to put into untapping their full potential. I personally found the prospect of sacrificing a few years of my life too bothersome.

Health is strengthened by tempering, tendons - by running, and muscles - by lifting weights. These exercises unquestionably prepare a warrior for hardships. However, they, as all things corporeal, have their limit. The final obstacle, which prevents the full extent of inner power from manifesting intself, lies within the mind. Once this limit is broken, the warrior is no longer a slave to their body, instead putting it at the service of pure Willpower.

To walk off paralyzing pain, to break shackles of fear, to find strength where there was none, to understand your place on the battlefield with crystal clarity - it's all just a tiny fraction of what can be achieved if you train your mind alongside your muscles.
