BUSHINDO is your
âEMPOWERED LIVING SYSTEMâ
All The Training and Tools that You Need To Life an Optimal Empowered Life.
We love personal empowerment and have dedicated our lives to training and helping others to live the most incredible lives possible. Bushindo University has offerred many budo Martial Arts (Ninjutsu, Budo Taijutsu, DeCuerdas Eskrima, Bushindo Sword), Personal Empowerment Training, Spiritual Awakening Methods, and Optimal Life Teachings worldwide for over 30 years in the form of privates, seminars, dojos, websites, home study courses and online training.
GrandMaster Richard Van Donk has now integrated all these teachings into his one complete Empower Yourself system. Richard deeply started on the path at age 19 looking for one complete life living systemâŚ.. a system that one could live all the principles and have the most awesome life possible. That took him on a vast search all over the globe studying with many masters in the fields of Body-Mind-Spirit to mastery level in them (see Bio). The Bushindo Empowered Living System utlizies the best of all these teachings of ancient, modern and futuristic.
Bushindo means:
âWay of the Empowered Warriorâ or the âEmpowered Warrior PathâÂ
Buâ Warrior â (Our definition) One who has the courage to transcend fear, to be resolved in times of challenge, demonstrate peace while being able to protect peace.
Shinâ Depending how the kanji is written this can be read as Heart, Mind, Truth, or Highest Aspect of God. In our training we combine all four attributes, using the word âEmpowermentâ to describe them. When writing Bushindo we use the kanji character for âheartâ because the heart is the center of all the teachings. We begin here and end here in the jeweled heart.
Doâ Way or Path of the Bushin (Warrior with heart). Do also means willful clarity of mindful purpose and directing of the divine will.
DOSHI - basically means Shower of the WayÂ
VISION
GrandMaster Richard J. Van Donk AKA "DOSHI" reveals his vision and story behind Bushindo.
The Bushindo System was founded in order to integrate my martial arts knowledge, my experiences of spiritual awakenings, and brain-mind research, as well as to separate these teachings from those of the Bujinkan Ninjutsu System as taught by Soke Hatsumi in which I invested 4Â decades of study. In the past few years Soke Hatsumi has merged his arts into a kobudo (ancient warrior) fighting system now called Budo Taijutsu. Although I have trained extensively in these fighting arts, both with him and with many other Grandmasters, my heart and the passion that drives my life is the integration of the philosophical and spiritual sides of the sacred temple arts.
I am very interested in seeing how far a group of individuals can evolve ourselves as human beings.
The studies of brain-mind research, yoga, kundalini research, sound and light activation of consciousness, meditation practices, body healing methods and alternative medicine are foremost in my personal dedication now. Therefore, BushindoTM as a University was born.
