Bushido: the Way of the Samurai

 
How would you feel if you had no fear? Feel like that. How would you behave toward other people if you realized their powerlessness to hurt you? Behave like that. How would you react to so-called misfortune if you saw its inability to bother you? React like that. How would you think if you knew you were really all right? Think like that.

God expects but one thing of you, and that is that you should come out of yourself in so far as you are a created being made and let God be God in you.

Meister Eckhart
