As this forum will testify to, people generally just like to hear themselves speak. I've seen many of the "Telekinetic Powers in 10 Days or Less!" or "Become a Ninja and Learn Accounting!" type books. Some books can be helpful explaining techniques and strikes (though nothing can replace actual practice), but when you get to the section about lighting leaves on fire with your eyes...it might be time to stop.

In Japan, there is the legend of "tengu" who lives on a mountain and has the figure of a "yamabushi". He has a pronounced nose and supernatural capabilities. A "Ninja", who was an agent or spy in the old days while working for his lord, goes to "tengu" at the mountain to get from him supernatural abilities. "Tengu" gives him a "tora-no-maki" (a scroll of the "tora") after giving him additional powers. This "scroll of the tora" is regarded as a very important book which is helpful for any crisis. We Japanese use this word sometimes in our daily life even today.

Yamabushi"s are religious men in training and are unique to Japan. Today, they are thought to belong to Japanese Buddhism. But the Buddhism in China, Korea, or India have no such custom. The custom of "yamabushi" has existed in Japan before Buddhism was imported into Japan in the seventh century.
