When Death Becomes Your Teacher
Picture a manuscript delivered to a publisher on the morning of its author's planned death. In 1970, Yukio Mishima-Japan's literary giant-handed over his final work before committing ritual suicide. The subject? An obscure 18th-century samurai manual he'd carried through World War II like a talisman. What could possibly be so compelling about a feudal warrior's handbook that it would captivate one of the 20th century's most brilliant minds? Hagakure, meaning "Hidden Leaves," wasn't just hidden by its poetic title-it was literally concealed from public view for generations, deemed too extreme even for feudal Japan. Yet today, everyone from Silicon Valley founders to special forces operators mines its pages for wisdom. What makes this text so enduringly powerful? Perhaps it's because Tsunetomo understood something we've forgotten: that embracing our mortality might be the key to actually living.
