In this episode, The Zen Samurai, Sensei Zen Takai, 16th-generation Samurai Master, joins Jason Van Blerk to explore the forgotten intelligence of the body, the spirit of the sword, and how true strength begins with stillness.

Through stories of lineage, philosophy, and training, The Zen Samurai reveals how the Samurai tradition mirrors the nervous system — discipline as devotion, paradox as truth, and movement as meditation.

This dialogue bridges worlds: from ancient Japan to modern AI, from logic to intuition, from ego to embodiment.

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

•⁠ ⁠Why the sword is seen as a living messenger between life and the afterlife.

•⁠ ⁠How to unlock inner calm and natural power in your tanden, the energy center below the navel.

•⁠ ⁠The truth about why logic without embodiment creates imbalance in modern civilization.

•⁠ ⁠How the Samurai trained intuition through the body, not the mind, to harmonize with nature and others.

•⁠ ⁠How real mastery comes from releasing ego, finding balance, and living with “60% effort” in all things.
