In the garden where the cherry blossom tree stands, the Blue Samurai gathers his disciples. The petals, float gently to the ground, creating a soft tapestry of pink and white. with the bright sun shining high above, this appears to be a perfect setting for today’s teaching.

The Blue Samurai begins his lesson with a beautiful smile by stating:

Love, my dear disciples, is the purest form of enlightenment. It is the sun that dispels the shadows of ignorance, the river that nourishes the barren soul.”

“When we are on the vibrancy of love, we are heartfelt, generous, nurturing, affectionate, steadfast, and forgiving.”

A cool gentle breeze moves through them as they feel the relaxation of the words

“Love is the nourishment of the soul. Can you remember the last time you truly felt love? the last time it nourished you?”

He pauses, letting the silence settle like the morning dew. His eyes, deep and serene.

“In the energy field of love, we are thankful for our life and for the miracles it brings.
We are grateful for every act of kindness from others,
for their affection, caring, and thoughtfulness.”

“Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.”

Rumi, 13th Century

“A single act of kindness has a rippling effect, uplifting the collective human spirit……. In time, this kindness we freely give to life flows back to us.”

He pauses, embraces the present moment and then continues:

we are surrounded by love and merely don’t realize its presence.”

“Love can be appreciation, Love can be admiration, love can be creation, love can be virtue and love can be devotion.”

Love as in Remembrance and Respect

 

“The presence of love within us makes everything better—our breakfast gets cooked better, our customers are more open to buying from us, and we find ourselves the recipients of unexpected kindness and warmth.”

"That is the power of love; it can greatly improve your existence. You just need to choose to love.”

He loves his doggie

“Love rests on no foundation. It is an endless ocean, with no beginning or end.”

Rumi, 13th Century

One of the disciples, eyes wide with curiosity, asks, "Master, how can we cultivate such love in our hearts?"

The Blue Samurai’s smile widens and he answers:

"Begin by loving yourself. For how can you give what
you do not possess?
Embrace your flaws, your fears, your dreams.
In understanding and accepting yourself,
you create a reservoir of love that will naturally overflow to others.'“

He smiles gently, his expression a mirror of relaxation and ease.

Eventually, we become love.
Everything we do and say, every movement we make,
is energized by the lovingness that we have owned within ourselves.

“I looked in temples, churches, and mosques. But I found the Divine within my heart.”

Rumi, 13th Century
