Niō Zen, 仁王, Beyond Sissy Buddhism

By Ta'ir LaNier

Nio Zen, ,Beyond sissy Buddhism is Buddhistic thought governed by the Warrior vitality. For a free chapter, visit the cyber temple at NioKiZen.com The terms Nio Zen were first flirted with during the medieval times of Japan by a samurai named Shosan. Shosan became a monk, and he preached that the missing ingredient in all of Buddhism of his time was vitality, only able to be attained through that of cultivating the Warrior''s mind. In Nio Zen, the term Warrior means a fighter who specializes in the strategies and tactics of conflict resolution, guided towards a liberty, a freedom for virtue. Warrior is that of where fighter meets philosopher. The Shakyamuni, or the Sage of the Shakya, was what Buddha was called often. He came from a Warrior people, and like Warriors with great insight before and after him, he grew weary of war and wanted to see it reduced. However, he saw that the greatest war was the one occurring in the mind of the populace : the war between the low mind, or hell mind, and the high mind, or the Heavenly mind. The external conflicts were a result of the internal conflict. To end the external wars, or at least mitigate them, one had to become a conqueror of the self, master it, tame it, and cultivate it towards the Heavens. Nio Zen is harsh. It is a system of thought that honors a specific breed of human : a breed that has the fight originating in it, that knows there is an innate nature to life, of it being a war, and they are ever so driven to master warfare, to master life. This is not a promotion of harm to others, on the contrary. Nio Zen holds the affirmation that only a Warrior can restrain the use of force, can be a pacifist, while the rest are not pacifist; they are pacified. Buddhism does not deal in the first virtue of the Buddha, said to be "All Power", for a reason. It leads to Sovereignty, and Sovereignty is that cultivated state of no longer being subject to any other, nor having any subjects. It is awakened freedom, and no government, no religious institution, and no collective favors Sovereignty. Sovereignty can be said to be one of the main objectives of Nio. Nio Zen aims to liberate Bodhi from Buddhism. The free chapter at NioKiZen.com is titled to represent this very objective. It comes with the declaration that if one is not a Warrior, they can not be a Buddha, for the first thing to "awaken" to, in life, is that life is war, and this is the true sense of duhkha, not suffering. Nio Zen answers to the bold and adventurous nature of those not born timid, not inclined to passivity. It is for those rare fighters, Warriors looking to master their conditions, not be subject to them. Nio Zen, ,Beyond sissy Buddhism offers the first step in developing the awakened mind and character. It focuses on the first virtue of a Buddha, the "All Power", the great analytical mind of awakening. In its analytical approach, Ta''ir uncovers a hidden and forgotten lesson of Early Buddhistic thought. He uncovers the meaning of the Nio statues, and shows that their characters point to an esoteric teaching of primacy. Nio Zen, ,Beyond sissy Buddhism is not the work of an academic. Coming from Brooklyn New York of the 80s and 90s, Ta''ir Lanier was an orphan and a street ruffian with a code of ethics not common to his condition. Ta''ir was a visionary considered by those around him a genius, a savant. Ta''ir began teaching liberation philosophy at the age of 12, and his influences were highly Eastern, mixed with Hellenistic thought of the ancient world. He was a Stoic, a Pythagorean, a modern-day Appolonius of Tyana. At 17, Ta''ir entered the Armed Forces of America in order to free himself of the streets of Brooklyn. Over the years, he would become an experimental and investigative Behavioral Philosopher, as his professional cover, when in fact, quite simply, he is a Warrior Sage.
