"Way" in this sense is translated {tIgh} in the title of TKW. We have
had some discussion in the past about whether {He} could refer to an
abstract "way of life" or whether it is limited to a physical course;
apparently {tIgh} is the appropriate word for this concept.
[I'll also point out that {X-wI' jIH} is often equivalent to {jI-X},
though in this case with {-moH} the grammar isn't quite so simple.]
