Bushido is basically a code to live your life by once you've dropped all the fears of death.  Once I figured that out, the Book of the Five Rings made soo much more sense.

sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the
dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve an
equation, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a
computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

A book written by Miyamoto Musashi, part poetry, part Tao; this is definitely worth the read.

Here's what his wiki has to say about him.
Quote:
Miyamoto Musashi was a Japanese swordsman and rōnin. Musashi, as he was often simply known, became renowned through stories of his excellent swordsmanship in numerous duels, even from a very young age. He was the founder of the Hyōhō Niten Ichi-ryū or Niten-ryū style of swordsmanship and the author of The Book of Five Rings (五輪の書 Go Rin No Sho?), a book on strategy, tactics, and philosophy that is still studied today.


  *Usually studied by CEO's and businessmen.

He had a 2 sword style that was very unique.  He didn't believe in alot of the bullcrap associated with traditional Japanese martial arts.  He was about getting it done.
