Order of Musashi Shinobi Samurai
The Order of Musashi Shinobi Samurai is a Japanese shinobisamurai clan which served Tokugawa Ieyasu and the Edo Shogunate from 1582 to 1868. They served the Tokugawa Shogunate as intelligence operatives called onmitsu (undercover agents), and metsuke (inspectors), and in the 19th century, as diplomats. When the political system changed due to the restoration of the monarchy in 1868, it became independent. The order consists of a number of families and people who have built close relations of trust with the Shibata Clan of the Musashi Province.
The clan was closed for over 450 years and kept its arts hidden, but turned to open its door to the public in 2006. It has become an NPO and now engaged in introducing the ninja and samurai cultures of the Clan Shibata, as well as in the advocacy of its philosophy, now termed Ninshido which was developed by their ancestors under the shogunate.
The Definition of "Shinobi samurai"
[edit]According to the First Chapter of Mansenshukai (Bansenshukai) authored by Fujibayashi Sabuji Yasutake in 1676, there were two types of shinobi, namely shinobisamurai and shinobinomono. The shinobisamurai were samurai who trained their servants, peasants and the locals to work as shinobinomono and contracted for shinobi services from feudal lords. The shinobinomono didn't have warrior backgrounds.[1] The two Japanese characters used by the author for the term "shinobisamurai" (忍士) can be also read "ninshi".
In the order, the term "shinobisamurai" refers to the samurai who used to engage in shinobi activities during the Warring State Period. And after 1600, those who served the Shogunate are referred to as "ninshi".
The case for the Musashi Shinobijutsu was made at the congress of the International Association of Ninja Research, 2020.[2] The traditional understanding of shinobijutsu (ninjutsu) in the order is that it is not a martial art but a collection of strategic techniques to collect intelligence without being noticed. The shinobi arts handed down in the order are: the clan martial arts, weapon crafting, performing arts, equestrian arts, shinobi medicine, explosives and language education. Thus each member chooses his/her art(s) to focus on. As shinobi's missions are to gather information that shinobi do not need to be martial artists. There are variety of shinobi classes, namely, bugei(martial arts)-shinobi, gigei(performing arts)-shinobi, tokumu(special duty)-shinobi, etc. depending on the expertise of the shinobi.[3]
The Ideology of the Order
[edit]The Ideoaly of the Order was explained at International Ninja Research Association 2019.[4]
The clan follows an ideology known as "'Ninshido" (忍士道),[3] the Way of Shinobi Samurai. It promotes the concept of 'Kyohmei Mizukagami' (共鳴水鏡), aiming for the state of Ku, or no-self, through training. When a Shinobi achieves inner peace, they harmonize with nature. The inner peace is called "Washin'" (和心).
Understanding that everyone vibrates with energy, our training purpose is to attune ourselves to others' vibrations. We strive to act like water mirrors, reflecting others with compassion and aiming for mutual prosperity through this resonance.
The ninpo of the Order is called "Gorin Ninpo" (五輪忍法). Ninpo is a fundamental philosophy to indicate how shinobijutsu should be applied. The teamwork guideline is expressed by four characters: "Lin fuh lai in" (林風雷陰(隠) signifying "Act quietly and fast, get results instantly without being noticed."
The Ninshido provides guidelines, systems, and methods to help each Shinobi member gradually transition their expertise from mere jutsu (techniques) to a path based on Do (Way).
History
[edit]The order has a shinobi samurai origin. The history of the order goes back to the mid-16th century.
On 4 June 1582, right after Honnō-ji Incident (本能寺の変), Shibata Suwo and Nagamochi Tokuzo, escorted Tokugawa Ieyasu by the request from Ieyasu's retainer, Hattori Hanzo. Together with other Iga and Koka shinobi, they guarded Ieyasu to Ise where Ieyasu and his retainers boarded a ship and eventually arrived at the Okazaki Castle in Mie successfully. Since then the Igamono shinobi samurai started to serve Ieyasu, and the clan officially became retainers of Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1582.[5][6] They moved to Edo (in Musashi region) in 1590 with Tokugawa Ieyasu and thereafter served the Tokugawa Shogunate till 1868.
During the Bakumatsu period, the two families reestablished themselves as a new clan in Musashi Region. After the Meiji Restoration of 1868, declining the offer from the Meiji Government, it became a private organization to maintain its shinobi samurai traditions.
1582-1833: "Era of Edo Onmitsu Ninshi"
[edit]The definition of the Edo Ninshi
The ninshi are the samurai metsuke (inspectors) and samurai onmitsu (undercover agents) who engaged in covert operations for the Edo Tokugawa Shogunate, and those who became key to intelligence activities in Europe as envoys.[3]
In 1582 Shibata Suwo and Nagamochi Tokuzo became retainers of Tokugawa Ieyasu.
In 1584 Nagamochi Tokuzo died in the Battle of Matsugashima Castle. Went to the Castle with Hattori Hanzo and other Igamonos to assist the Oda force, ally of the Tokugawas.
From 1590 the clan heads (Shibata Suwo and Nagamochi Judaiyu) in Edo served in the Edo Castle, as Hiroshikiban to guard the shogun's private quarters in addition to working as onmitsu (undercover agents).
In 1615 Shibata Suwo died in the Summer Seize of Osaka Castle. With two other Igamonos, Suwo was in charge of covert operations in and out of Osaka Castle.[7]
In 1717, the 8th generation Shogun Tokugawa Yoshimune, introduced a new intelligence system, the Oniwabanshu (gardeners), and some of Yoshimune's retainers joined the Hiroshiki Igamono.[8] As a result, the clan became strengthened through marriages with Oniwaban members.[9]
In 1794 the shogunate introduced a meritocracy system based on Gakumon Gimmi (Recruitment examination) which started two years earlier [10] and opened its offices to talent.[11] The shinobi samurai started to place importance on academic achievement.[12]
In 1802, under the 11th shogun, the head of the Shibata family, Jinshiro, was transferred to work in the shogunate's Gakumonsho (shogunate university). Jinshiro's son, Junzo was promoted to belong to the Hasei Goemon Group for his academic excellence and served as metsuke.[13]
The most noteworthy contributions to the society made by the members were done during the Bakumatsu period. There are two outstanding Edo ninshi personalities worthy of mention. One is Shibata Takenaka (also known as Shibata Sadataro Takenaka),and the other is Nagamochi Kohjiro Yoshiaki. They were brothers.

For decades the order has systematized its traditions, and codified them as the fundamental principles and guidelines.
In 2019 its fundamental philosophy was presented as "The Code of Shinobi Samurai", or "Ninshido" [44] in the annual congress of the International Ninja Research Association.
Musashi Ninshidan, NPO (NPO法人 武蔵忍士団)
In 2019, The Order of Musashi Shinobi Samurai, NPO (Musashi Ninshidan NPO - NPO法人 武蔵忍士団) was founded by Kazuhiro Aizawa, Kiyomi Shibata, and Mayumi Shindo and 7 other members.[45] The vision of the NPO is a sustainable and peaceful world where every person thrives, and the present purpose of the order is to contribute to the public interest by conducting projects related to promoting culture and international exchange besides its century-old aim of training its members to be full-fledged shinobi.
In the same year the order established its transnational research center[46] with Kenryu Hayek (chief administrator) and Ulises Villa Huesca. The research center fortifies the ninshi think tank by providing information throughout the world. Intelligence gathering has been historically the main mission of the shinobi order. The order advocates Ninshido as a valid framework for today and for the future.[3]
Ninshidan Europe, NPO (NPO法人 欧州忍士団)
In 2021 an NPO in Europe was established with the name Ninshidan Europe as Sven Kristjan Kreisberg as chairman.[47]
The development of Ninshido
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8a/INRA2019.jpg/220px-INRA2019.jpg)
![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/The_3rd_issue_of_the_report_by_the_International_Ninja_Research_Association.jpg/170px-The_3rd_issue_of_the_report_by_the_International_Ninja_Research_Association.jpg)
In 2019 an academic presentation titled "Ninshido: The New paradigm of the Order of Shinobi Samurai" was made by Kazuhiro Aizawa and Kiyomi Shibata (The NPO Musashi Order of Shinobi Samurai), at the 4th annual convention of the International Ninja Research Association in Nagano in 2019.
According to Mansenshukai(Bansenshukai), the shinobi's ethics was "seishin" (正心 right-mindedness), which encouraged the shinobi to be loyal to their feudal clients and not to use their arts for themselves. But this was not enough for the shinobsamurai to serve the shogunate, as "seishin" could be used as justifications of arbitrary conducts.
With the introduction of the Gakumon Ginmi (学問吟味) recruitment exams in 1792 by the shogunate, which required the examinees to study Confucianism and neo-Confucianism. Especially the Neo-Confucianist ideas were combined with the old shinobi mindsets that new ninshi philosophical ideas started to develop emphasizing on Gotoku (五徳 Five Virtues), Gogyo (五行 Five Elements), and Sansai (三才 Three Powers). This took place before the introduction of Bushido by Nitobe Inazo.
In 1989, the fundamental philosophy was named Kyohmei (共鳴 Empathetic Resonance) and Mizu kagami (水鏡 Water Mirror), and the ultimate purpose of the members training was to be one with ku (空 large universe) or “無我 no-self.
The order maintains that ninshido has evolved and has adapted to changes that the ninshi traditions have survived to this date. The ninishido ideas have been incorporated in the order's practical educational system so the members can learn a collection of strategies called "Gorin ninpo" (五輪忍法) and the "Kyohmei" guideline" to serve their communities as shinobi should. Through training, the members efficiently learn to integrate their mental and physical strengths, which will cultivate their inner fortitude to be equanimous under any circumstance.
The ninshi education helps to develop a more positive shinobi paradigm in the world as well as to help mold members personalities. The timeless ninshi wisdom can be effectively utilized in this modern age. [48]
Activity
[edit]2007-2017 Establishment of a martial arts dojo "Jidai Academy" in Tabata[49]
2017–present Management of a Martial arts dojo "Shinobi Samurai Honjin Dojo" in Shibakoen[50][51]
The order has become a small think and do tank following the footsteps of the ninshi forefathers to work for world peace. This organization provides the public with seminars, workshops, events for the purpose of promoting culture, international exchange, tourism, etc., and with projects related to information gathering.
2019 Published an academic textbook for interpreter-students featuring the memory training used in shinobi training of the order.[52]
