I’m working on a chapter in New Samurai Code on focusing on the core drive of your practice, purpose, life. I thought this would be a great inspirational side-piece.

You are ready now for the treasure which

has been set aside for you.

For the lit jewel of your heart, showing

the landscape of your life.

for the soft, clear light of your whole

thoughts, preserving you.

for the jade apple of loving the world –

a satiation that cannot be taken from you.
