## Description

Buy The Unfettered Mind: Writings from a Zen Master to a Master Swordsman Reprint by Soho, Takuan, Wilson, William Scott (ISBN: 9781590309865) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Five Stars - Excellent reading, especially if you have an interest in both swordsmanship and philosophy.
Review: A magnificent collection from an old master - In this book, do not expect to find either enlightenment or the answer to your questions, because this is not a guide to life or spiritualism. Rather, the unfettered mind is a collection of letters, each revealing the viewpoint of the Zen master Takuan to the reciever. An amusing and deeply philosophical book, portraying a "path" long since abandoned. A must for anyone's bookshelf that contains spiritual books.
