Welcome to the home page of Rich Cearley and the Bujinkan Murakumo Dojo of Richmond Texas. Not only is this page dedicated to the art of Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu but to various interesting health topics related to martial arts. My chosen profession is in the field of Physical Therapy and I've found that it has benefitted not only myself and my fellow students but our understanding of the art as well- The links included are some of my favorites. I hope you find some use for them as well. Listed here is an edict from the current Grandmaster's teacher, Toshitsugu Takamatsu-33rd Grandmaster of Togakure Ryu Ninjutsu. "The way to experience ultimate happiness is to let go of all worries and regrets and know that being happy is the most satisfying of life's feelings. Reflect back on all the progress in your life and allow the positive, creative and joyous thoughts to outshine and overwhelm any sorrow or grief that may be lingering there in the recesses of your mind. Knowing that disease and disaster are natural parts of life is the key to overcoming adversity with a calm and happy spirit. Happiness is waiting there in front of you. Only you can decide whether or not you choose to experience it. Take this to heart."
