Kusanagi-No-Tsurugi, also known as Grasscutter, Murakumo-No-Tsurugi, Sword of the Gods or Sword-of-the-Village-of-the-Clustering-Clouds, is a legendary holy sword in the Usagi Yojimbo series which is the central object in the Grasscutter arc and the Grasscutter II arc.
The sword was first found in the fourth tail of the Eight-Forked Serpent of Koshi by Susano-o, the kami of the sea-plain and dubbed it "Murakamo-No-Tsurugi" As he was banished from the heavens because of an insult towards Amaterasu, Susano-o presented the sword to her to appease her anger.
Years later, at the temple of Amaterasu, Yamato-Dake, the son of Emperor Keiko received the sword alongside some fire strikers as favors to aid him in quelling the Yemishi. Yamato then went to the Suruga province, where a lord offered to organize a hunt for him, which he accepted. Once outside however, the lord had the intention to assassinate the young prince by setting the grass around him aflame. Yamato began cutting back the surrounding grass using "Murakamo-No-Tsurugi", when he realized that the wind blew in the direction the sword was swung. He then set his own fire using his fire strikers and swung the sword in the direction of the traitor, killing him and his men. Once the fire died out, Yamato-Dake renamed the sword "Kusanagi", or "Grasscutter".
Later on April 25, 1185, after the Heike clan lost the final battle of the Genpei War, Kusanagi was lost to the sea. It was the only sacred item besides the Sacred Mirror and Jewel that was not recovered from the aftermath. A forged duplicate of the sword was put in Atsuta Shrine.
Centuries later, a group of Heike clan sympathizers naming themselves "The Conspiracy of Eight" began a plot to reinstate the Emperor into power by recovering Kusanagi to be presented with the two other sacred items; this would give the idea that the gods wanted the Emperor back in power. The leader, Lord Kotetsu employed a woman named Ryoko who had supernatural powers. Using her abilities, she was able to control the Keike crabs in the ocean to locate the lost sword, in which they were successful.
Unfortunately for the conspirators, Miyamoto Usagi came across the sword. Initially thinking of it to be a fake, he took the sword anyway to present to Lord Noriyuki as a gift. Consequently, he was continually pursued by the conspirators' men, until Ryoko's personal servant, Kitanamono took the sword from him. Unfortuntely for Kitanamono, however, Jei - The Blade of the Gods was also pursuing the sword after it (allegedly) summoned him. Unsurprisingly, the feral servant was killed. Jei then attempted to consecrate Kusanagi; much to his surprise, the sword did not change - unlike other weapons.
Not long afterward, Usagi and Gen crossed paths with Jei, who stated that the sword would be a trophy for the victor. Jei stuck Kusangai into the ground, apparently creating an earthquake. After losing his sword during the fight, Usagi used Kusanagi to run the sword through Jei's body, destroying it. Sanshobo and a group of priests brought Usagi, Gen and Kusanagi to his temple, where they devised a plan to deliver it to Atsuta Shrine.Many of my clients come to me to learn about social media, Facebook in particular, I teach them the tool but mostly I teach them about their client. I teach them about what motivates their client. The thing is, as a business coach, I’m more interested in what motivates them. I want to know what their end goal is. I want to help them achieve that.
Over the years, I’ve had people tell me that their end goal is to sell their business, that they want more vans on the road, that they want their own premises. They are so varied and I love all of them, I have to say “selling the business” is a favourite and always keeps me thinking.
When it comes to business coaching, the end goal for the business is one of the first things I ask about. I want to know what we are working towards. The thing about social media is that it needs to be drawing your audience to that end goal too. Social media is a tool, a means to an ends and not an end itself.
Let’s just be clear that it has to be more than just money, that’s a thing not a goal. If all you can think about is money, then consider what that money will allow you to do, that’s your goal. Money is but a means to an ends. Consider what you would do with your business if money wasn’t a barrier.
So you know what it is but why should you play the end goal?
The biggest benefit of playing the end game is focus. If you are consistently focused on your end game, you’re more likely to achieve it. You’re also less likely to be distracted by other things along the way. Too often I find that business owners are distracted by the idea of developing a new offer or a new tool and they lose sight of the end game. That can waste time and other resources.
Playing the end game keeps me grounded. Now I’m back to spreading the word about the importance of understanding the psychology in your business, I am dogged. I am centred. I am passionate. All of these things come across to my audience and they are less confused as to what I do and why they need me.
Your messaging is on point. With your eye on the end game, you are focused and that makes it easier to speak to that one thing. To make your point. To move yourself and your fans to that end. It helps you to be brief, clear, and accurate.
So, do you know your end goal? What would help you play the end goal?Home Health & Fitness Workout Tips: How to Choose the Correct Weight to Lose Weight in...
Hey guys, it’s Kannan hope you are doing well. Today I’m going to share your ways much weight do you have to lift to reduce? Otherwise, you could be eager to skills to progress in the matter. Now that you’ve got started and when do you have to move up if that’s you, I got four stages for you.
The way to go up in weight arising?
How does one choose weight?
How does one progress in weight?
When trying to reduce If you were trying to find what rep ranges to hit to decline, I even have a Post thereon and that I recommend you to ascertain that post on this site.
Stage 1: once you pick a weight that you know, needless to say, is just too light. If it’s the primary time, you’re ever doing the movement. Now Seeing this post, you would possibly already be past stage one. You would perhaps have already done the training before. Have a touch bit better idea of where your weight should be? Because you are not starting thereon anymore. But if you’re fresh starting later, you should start with something that’s way too light something that you know. I mean, you’ve never done this exercise before. So if you’re going to do a dumbbell bench press, you check out the weights and you are like. I can handle these weights right here pick them up and that I can take these, albeit that is the fives. Albeit that’s something but the fives to practice the moving because your systema nervosum is going to be all twitchy, you do not want to be holding the 20-25 pound dumbbells.
It’s a bit an excessive amount of weight. Maybe it’s just the proper weight. But since you’re all twitchy and new this, you twitch right into your face, and your workouts over perhaps far more than that’s over. So you only want to take care of thereupon and take care. Confirm not to choose an excessive amount of weight when doing it for the primary time.
Stage 2: Probably your next set; if not, maybe three maybe four groups later so perhaps. Your very next workout, but this happens pretty quick, which is what you progress up in weight increments by one or two weight increments. If you’re using the 5 lbs dumbbells, then be happy to travel up to the eights or whatever. They need next or even the 10s once you are feeling easier with it. The key here is that one you recognize, and you’ll keep propriety. And Two you’re confident, you are feeling good If you’re nervous about moving up to the tens because you do not have full confidence yet within the fives or overconfidence within the fives then don’t move up to the tens it’s better to require some time and waste a little touch bit of time within the early stages then to injure yourself and not be within the gym for subsequent couple months not losing weight in the least.
Stage 3: At now, you are a bit more confident. This might be your second or third workout. This is often where you only start to gauge for yourself based on each set. And you ask yourself, was that too easy. If it
