Nitobe Inazo: The Sense of Honor
Photographer Unknown, (What is Life Without Honor)
‘Nitobe Inazo, “Bushido: The Soul of Japan”, 1905, G.P. Putnam’s Sons
The Eight Virtues are: Rectitude or Justice; Courage; Benevolence or Mercy; Politeness; Honesty and Sincerity; Honor; Loyalty; Character and Self-Control.
“The sense of Honor, a vivid consciousness of personal dignity and worth, characterized the samurai. He was born and bred to value the duties and privileges of his profession. Fear of disgrace hung like a sword over the head of every samurai … To take offense at slight provocation was ridiculed as ‘short-tempered.’ As the popular adage put it: ‘True patience means bearing the unbearable.” – Nitobe Inazo, Bushido: The Soul of Japan, Chapter 8, “Honour”

Artist Unknown, (Sitting on the Sidelines), Computer Graphics
“Very few beings really seek knowledge in this world. Mortal or immortal, few really ask. On the contrary, they try to wring from the unknown the answers they have already shaped in their own minds — justifications, confirmations, forms of consolation without which they can’t go on. To really ask is to open the door to the whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner.”

The Lit Candle
Photographer Unknown, (The Lit Candle)
“When you have gone beyond thinking, and if you can still remain alert, aware, as if one is fast asleep but still alert—deep down at the very core of one’s being a lamp goes on burning, a small candle of light—then you will see your original face. And to see your original face is to be back in the Garden of Eden.”
