| yes indeed..
The samurai too feared death not.. A saying was said by a samurai , "Go to the battle thinking you will never return home, and you will return. Go to the battle wanting to return home, and u will die". Honor too, was everything to a samurai, he prefered death over dishonour and shame, and killed himself.
And the Sword was everything to a samurai.. maybe even more than the night.. The sowrd and the bow..
They say the blade of the samurais sword displayed its spirit. And the bow was the primary weapon of the early samurai too. And ofcourse, horse back riding was everythign too..
