I've learned so much from Thomas Cleary's book and others about the Bushido/Code of the Samurai too. We can learn so much about applying these principles to some of the challenges we face today.

I used to be a horse trainer in a small town in Colorado. I know what you mean when you say that you must master the animals cues. Its hard, but eventually you and the horse learn to read each other's signals through the lightest of touches and pressure releases. It should also be noted that in the early days of the samurai that horsemanship and archery were considered the ultimate and most quintessential skills for a warrior to have. It wasn't until later that the sword was considered the highest art. I really enjoyed your article here. I used to be a horse trainer in a small town in Colorado.
