THE SEVEN VIRTUES OF BUSHIDO

Japanese culture is very old and has always emphasized virtues in battle. Unlike in other latitudes, a Japanese fighter must represent high ideals in order to be considered worthy. The word "Bushido" speaks exactly of this and is translated as the way of the warrior.

This way of the warrior or bushido includes an ethic that the samurai used. It comprises a number of principles, but above all seven values ​​that should guide behavior. It is said that members of the ruling class were taught it from an early age.

“Anyone can enter the hard fight and die. The farmer needs great courage to do this, but the samurai makes the decision imperturbably. For him it is essential to know how and when to live, how and when to die."
~ Prince of Mito ~

The way of the warrior is also known as the code of the samurai. This unites principles of Buddhism, Confucianism and other Eastern philosophies. He still provides a valuable guide to life. These are the seven virtues and teachings he describes.

1. Courage, an indispensable virtue to be free

According to the warrior's way, only when you are brave can you be free. It is the courage that allows one to live freely, without the shackles that fear puts on you. It takes courage to act, especially to do great things.

With courage one does not mean blind boldness. True courage must always be accompanied by intelligence and strength. Fear exists, but we must not let it overwhelm us. Instead, we should replace them with caution and respect. This is the only way real courage can develop.

2. Politeness must never be lacking

In the warrior's way, courtesy does not mean simply a series of kind gestures or good manners. In reality, it is a virtue closely related to respect for others, even if they are enemies.

Above all, politeness is based on respect for other people, regardless of the circumstances. This means not being cruel and refusing unnecessary displays of power or strength. It is a virtue that shows character and inner strength.

3. Compassion must always be present

The strength and power that you carry within you must be used for the good of all people. This shows the way of the warrior, which is also built on solidarity. This is a quality that adorns the power.

Compassion is not just a feeling, it must also be translated into concrete actions. Whenever you can help someone, you should do it. And if the opportunity to help someone doesn't arise, you have to go out into the world and look specifically for such an opportunity.

4. Justice always comes first

The way of the warrior says that justice cannot be done half-heartedly. According to this ancient wisdom, in what we define as right or wrong, we assume what we understand to be truth. The right will be rewarded and the wrong will be punished.

To be fair means to always do right. Our behavior should not depend on what others say, but only on ourselves. Everyone knows deep in their heart what is right and what is not. One should only follow the light that emanates from oneself.

5. Loyalty resides in strong and noble spirits

What someone does or says is part of their character. Therefore, the consequences are always our own. It is therefore important to internalize responsibility before acting or expressing something.

Loyalty means, above all, loyalty to yourself. The ability to be consistent or coherent. In this respect, it is also an obligation to react to deeds and words. Loyalty resides only in the strongest and noblest.

6. The word and sincerity

For the samurai, the word has immense value. One does not simply speak just to speak. Therefore, in the warrior's way, words are equal to deeds. When something is said, it is perceived as if it had already been done.

In this philosophy, the value of a promise is eliminated. Promises are not necessary here. It is enough to say that something is being done so that the other person knows that it is being done. This is only possible among those who are completely honest with themselves and with others.

7. Honor exalts man

According to the Way of the Warrior, the greatest of all virtues is honor. To be honorable means to act with righteousness, regardless of the circumstances. Do your duty and uphold the values ​​regardless of whether or not others share them.

Honor is linked to respect for oneself. This includes not engaging in immoral or despicable behavior. Honor is so important in this philosophy that the samurai who loses the only path can only find redemption by taking his own life.

The most interesting thing about the warrior's path is that the values ​​that this code of ethics describes are still valid, even though it is so old. The world would look very different if we applied these precious samurai principles to every conflict or confrontation.
