The way of the Spiritual Warrior is not self-will. It is surrender aligned with strength. It is not the ego choosing a path—it is the soul obeying God.
To walk this path is to find God, love God, and move only as God moves through you.
God’s will is not discovered through overthinking. It is felt.
It arises as a quiet, unmistakable knowing in the center of the chest—the spiritual heart. This is intuition. This is the inner compass. This is where command replaces confusion.
When the heart is clear, action becomes effortless. When the heart is polluted by fear or ego, action becomes noise.
The Spiritual Warrior does not act from impulse. He acts from alignment.
YIN AND YANG: THE WARRIOR’S BALANCE
From the martial perspective, this is Yin and Yang.
Yin is stillness, listening, restraint, humility, devotion.
Yang is decisive action, pressure, force, protection, execution.
A warrior without Yin becomes violent and blind. A mystic without Yang becomes naïve and defenseless.
The Spiritual Warrior holds both.
He is gentle in spirit and absolute in action. Empty inside—unstoppable outside. Calm in prayer—ferocious when duty demands.
This is not contradiction. This is mastery.
AHIMSA AND REALITY
The world is not yet ready for Ahimsa.
Compassion without strength is vulnerability. Love without boundaries invites destruction.
Therefore:
Better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.
The Spiritual Warrior does not seek conflict. But he is prepared.
He trains so he never needs to prove himself. He sharpens the blade so it may remain sheathed.
Violence is not his identity— readiness is.
MARTIAL ARTS AS A UNIVERSAL LAW
Martial arts is not just physical.
It is:
Business strategy (timing, positioning, pressure, adaptability)
The image of a samurai, facing insurmountable odds and casting aside their scabbard, is a timeless metaphor for commitment, focus, and victory. It’s a story that transcends cultures and eras, and it speaks to the heart of what it means to live with purpose. In a single moment, the samurai embodies a truth that Michael Abedin lived every day: when you commit fully, align with divine intent, and take inspired action, you emerge from life’s challenges with great power.
Michael Abedin, a modern-day warrior, healer, and teacher, was a shining example of living with purposeful alignment. His life was an extraordinary blend of martial arts mastery, spiritual wisdom, and creative genius, leaving an indelible impact on all who crossed his path. As the owner and editor of Austin All Natural Magazine, an 8th-generation Reiki Master Teacher, and a Fifth-Degree Kenpo Karate Black Belt, Michael epitomized the perfect balance of strength, grace, and wisdom.
The Samurai’s Mindset: Total Commitment
Michael’s philosophy mirrored that of the samurai. The act of discarding the scabbard represents total commitment to a single outcome—there is no retreat, no fallback plan, only forward movement infused with unwavering belief. This is the essence of the Law of Attraction. To manifest success, one must approach life’s challenges with clarity, intent, and confidence in the divine process.
Michael’s martial arts training taught him to combine physical readiness with mental focus and spiritual energy. His spontaneous yet calculated approach to life was akin to a samurai stepping into battle. Victory wasn’t merely about defeating an opponent; it was about embodying purpose and surrendering to the flow of divine energy that guides every inspired action.
The Law of Attraction in Action
Michael was a friend of Dr. Joe Vitale, star of the movie The Secret. As a certified teacher of the Law of Attraction under Dr. Joe Vitale’s organization, I, Sifu Matt Russo have experienced firsthand how the principles Michael lived and taught can transform lives. The Law of Attraction isn’t passive wishful thinking; it’s a call to action. Like the samurai who trusts their blade, you must trust the tools and resources the universe provides.
Clear Intent: Know your purpose. What do you want to achieve? Clarity is the foundation of manifestation.
Summon Energy: Align your thoughts and actions with your goal. Cultivate the mental, emotional, and physical energy needed to bring it to life.
Surrender to the Process: Trust that the divine will guide you. Take inspired action, knowing the outcome is already unfolding as it should.
Michael embodied these principles in every aspect of his life. Whether editing his magazine, practicing Reiki, or stepping into the dojo, he acted with force and focus, infused with the confidence that comes from knowing he was aligned with a higher purpose.
Michael’s Renaissance Spirit
Michael was a true Renaissance man. His Cherokee heritage, passion for alternative healing, and lifelong dedication to martial arts made him a unique force of nature. He wasn’t just a fighter; he was a teacher, storyteller, and mentor who inspired others to find their inner strength.
In martial arts, Michael was known for his speed, precision, and adaptability—qualities born from a deep understanding of the mind-body connection. As a Reiki Master and holistic healer, he blended this physical mastery with spiritual insight, offering others a path to self-healing and empowerment.
Lessons from Michael’s Journey
Michael’s life was a masterclass in living with intention and courage. Despite his eventual battle with cancer, he faced his challenges with the same grace and strength he exhibited in all areas of his life. His passing was a reminder that even warriors can be humbled by the mysteries of life. Yet his legacy endures, teaching us that:
Commit Fully: Whether in battle, healing, or life, don’t hold back. Burn the bridges of doubt and hesitation.
Align with Spirit: Trust the divine process, and know that the universe provides exactly what you need.
Take Inspired Action: Manifestation requires movement. Follow the signs, trust your intuition, and act with courage.
The Legacy of a Warrior, Healer, and Teacher
Michael Abedin’s life serves as a powerful reminder that we are all capable of greatness when we act with purpose, force, and focus. His samurai-like commitment to victory and his mastery of the Law of Attraction continue to inspire those of us who seek to live with intention and manifest our highest potential.
As I reflect on my own journey as a master martial artist and Raja Yogi in the lineage of Paramahansa Yogananda, I see the parallels between Michael’s teachings and the timeless wisdom of the great sages. True mastery lies in integrating the physical, mental, and spiritual realms into a harmonious whole.
Let Michael’s story be a beacon for all who dare to face life’s challenges head-on. Cast aside your scabbard, commit fully, and trust that the universe will guide you to victory.
May we all live with the courage, creativity, and commitment that defined Michael Abedin’s remarkable life.
