Ninjutsu—the way of the shinobi— has long been shrouded in secrecy, often reduced to myths of invisibility and supernatural prowess. Yet, beneath the folklore lies an intricate psychological discipline—one that masters the arts of influence, deception, and intelligence-gathering. NINJUTSU MIND-TRAPPING by James Loriega-sensei is a study in the hidden dimension of those arts, where the battlefield is not the body, but the mind itself. At the heart of this work is the concept of Gojyo —the systematic identification of an individual’s psychological vulnerabilities and the calculated application of those insights to achieve cooperation. This skill is not about brute-force coercion or simple manipulation. Instead, it is about understanding the hidden triggers within a target’s psyche and using them to navigate strategic interactions. The principles discussed in this book have direct applications for professionals who rely on persuasion, discretion, and the ability to extract valuable information from well-guarded sources. Whether in business negotiations, intelligence operations, or corporate strategy, the ability to read and influence others is an invaluable skill.
