Tsukahara Bokuden (1490 – 1571) was the most deadly Japanese samurai of his day who earned his reputation by fighting and beating the best martial arts experts the country had to offer. He lived during the Muromachi Period and was the ideal warrior who never lost a fight, whether in a battle for his Daimyo (warlord) or an individual duel; he was loyal, noble, and always ready to die if necessary. However, what was unusual about Bokuden was that in later life he developed the philosophy that there was more merit in avoiding conflict than there was in fighting and killing an opponent. While this is generally accepted within martial arts philosophy today, during Bokuden’s day, it was all but unheard of.
