Go Rin No Sho (1645), The Water Book
Context: In strategy your spiritual bearing must not be any different from normal. Both in fighting and in everyday life you should be determined though calm. Meet the situation without tenseness yet not recklessly, your spirit settled yet unbiased. Even when your spirit is calm do not let your body relax, and when your body is relaxed do not let your spirit slacken.

“I never felt settled or calm. You can't really commit to life when you feel that.”
[Swami Aseshananda, Glimpses of a Great Soul; a Portrait of Swami Saradananda, 43]
