once again, i am refering strictly to his phillosophical views. Disregaurd all the fighting stuff. I am not here to argue wether his methods of training etc would be sufficient for ass kicking.

i want to know what peoples thoughts are on his eastern (and buhdism) influenced philosophies of life (i.e. middle way etc.)

From what I understand, he studied Philosophy in college, but it seems he concentrated a lot on Chinese philosophy; mainly ideas of Taoism. Still, I dont see how you can really differentiate his philosophies on life vs his philosophies on fighting. They are intertwined.

has anyone here actually read his book? the first part of it is filled w/ general philosophy. It can be and some of it is applied to fighting, but most of this section can be applied to anything really.
