Questionable Questing

He was a superpowered peace seeker who taught them a means by which true peace and understanding could be achieved. Then they used it to give themselves magical war powers instead.

Also, I like the idea of a clan of ninjas that still uses Ninshu, or perhaps a direct derivative, as a set of hiden. Maybe a close relative of the Yamanaka, or perhaps the Yamanaka themselves...Or perhaps both. Their relative literally uses ninshu, while the Yamanaka use derivative mind manipulation arts. Injuries are mirrored because ninshu connects mind to mind and body to body.

By creating a mental-mental and physical-physical connection between two people, it's /meant/ to be the means of gaining true understanding. The close relatives would have derivative techniques for...say...'ninshu mediation'. Bridging two people without ninshu knowledge with yourself as the intermediary. Or one way sympathy, to detect problems they're experiencing.

Even for maintaining the consensual ninshu connection over a distance. Hmm...maybe a teaching technique, since people with a ninshu link can feel what each-other are doing with their chakra/body/thinking processes.

To be perfectly honest, I still have no idea what the fuck ninshu even is and what sets it apart from ninjutsu.

NInshu is an art of mutual meditation where you connect your mental energy with another person's, and your physical energy with theirs. It purely exists to facilitate a degree of understanding between two people that can't be attained otherwise - to disprove solipsism solidly and score points for empathy. Only thing it has to do with ninjutsu is that the sage had to give people chakra to let them learn ninshu.

And then people who didn't buy into the philosophical side of the teachings learned to combine physical and mental energy into actual chakra - how to cultivate it to greater levels. How to use it as a weapon.

Basically it's mutual telepathy - sharing your internal life, from your worries to the ache in your knee - with someone else perfectly.
