===The simple legend===

The founding of Sōsuishi-ryū dates back to '''''Futagami Hannosuke Masaaki''''' <ref>[http://www16.ocn.ne.jp/~sekiryu/edouzyou.html Shadanhoujin Sekiryukan]</ref> <ref>The name Masanori appears in print in the English Language. The name "Masanori" is a ''mis-reading/mis-pronunciation'' of the name Masaaki. </ref> in 1650 ''CE''. He was a district [[samurai]] living in the area of Bungo-Takeda, which was in the domain of Kuroda during the era called ''Sho-o''. (now present day [[Oita]] and [[Fukuoka Prefecture|Fukuoka]]). Masaaki, was a practitioner of his family martial art Futagami-ryū and a high-level student of [[Takenouchi-ryū]] under Hisamori Takenouchi. He felt the techniques of Futagami-ryū were imperfected, so in order to improve them he decided to travel all over Japan and train himself by going on a pilgrimage (Musha Shugyo). At one point he went deep into the mountainous, rugged valley of Mt.Yoshino, where for thirty-seven days he trained and sought enlightenment.  He refined the finer points of the technique of Futagami-ryū and honed the secret teachings that he had studied. He then assembled them into what he believed were the best of everything he had learned. One day, while he was gazing at the Yoshino river, he noticed the water flowing and swirling together steadily. The training of his mind, body and spirit converged at that one moment. This event, called ''[[satori]]'' in Japanese,  prompted him to change the name of Futagami-ryū to Sōsuishi-ryū in remembrance of his experiences at the Yoshino River.
