In allowing yourself to be seen, you trust the integrity that created you as you are. The ninja strives to minimize the use of force, always seeking the least intrusive way of influencing the world. Like the perfect dive, the ninja's actions create minimal unintended effect. The ninja respects all life, and seeks to control nothing, because there is no control, only influence. Attempts to control create splash.
Respectful influence affects with minimal disturbance.
These are not lessons to be learned in a day or a year, or perhaps even in one lifetime. They are a direction for attention and movement. The ninja recognizes the pitfalls of perspective, and directs effort with vigilance rather than striving for goals. You do not become a ninja. Rather, you create a new self in every moment.
