We find God in everything, flowers, sunsets, a child’s face, etc. The Teachings call that Sourcing. The more that you resonate with the divine the more beautiful your life becomes. We support all spiritual paths and share source connection practices that have been used for thousands of years.
BE VIBRANTLY HEALTHY
Energy is a dimension of time and determines the quality of your existence. There are many factors that determine your vibrational field including what you put into the body in the form of substance, mental thoughts and even the breath that you breath. it is how you breathe that is perhaps even most important and vital to your life.
EXPAND YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS
Quality of Life is about becoming more aware in each moment and having belief systems that allow for an expansiveness of your consciousness versus a contraction. It is time to thing about what you do want versus what you don’t want.
LOVING RELATIONSHIPS
The most important relationship you will ever have is with you. When it get’s right on the inside it will get right on the outside and not until then. When you are happy everyone, including you, wants to be around you. You attract what you vibrate.
KNOW YOUR TRUE POWER
Awaken yourself to your highest potential. Immortality or becoming a Shaman may not be your goal but I am sure that you want more strength, clarity of mind and a powerful presence of being or you would not be reading this far. Be who you are. Learn how to do what you love. Learn what you purpose is in this life and how to fulfill it.
AWAKENED MIND
Knowing the science of how your mind actually works will give your the empowerment to control or direct your thoughts or turn them off at will so that you can make clear decisions or know peace.
INTEGRATED BEING
The ultimate goal of Bushindo’s Teachings is for you to own yourself fully, to empower yourself mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally. Then become a fully integrated human being living to the ultimate of your capacity manifesting in every way the lifestyle you choose to live. A master of your life.

BUSHINDO MEANS
"Way of the Awakened Warrior" or "Awakened Warrior Path"Bu – Warrior
(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.
Shin
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 “Awakened” to describe them. When writing Bushindo we use the kanji character for ‘heart’ because the heart is the center of all the teachings. We begin here and end here in the jeweled heart.
Do
Way or Path of the Bushin (Warrior with heart). Do in Japanese (Dao/Tao in Chinese) also means willful clarity of mindful purpose and directing of the divine will.
