O SAMURAI.

"Ninguém é tão sábio que nada tenha para aprender, nem tão tolo que nada tenha pra ensinar. Blaise Pascal"

Versículo: “Tenho-vos dito isto, para que em mim tenhais paz; no mundo tereis aflições, mas tende bom ânimo, eu venci o mundo.” João 16:33

Bom dia! Pessoal

O SAMURAI.

Perto de Tóquio vivia um grande samurai, já idoso, que agora se dedicava a ensinar o zen aos jovens. Apesar de sua idade, corria a lenda de que ainda era capaz de derrotar qualquer adversário. Certa tarde, um guerreiro conhecido por sua total falta de escrúpulos apareceu por ali. Era famoso por utilizar a técnica da provocação: esperava que seu adversário fizesse o primeiro movimento e, dotado de uma inteligência privilegiada para reparar os erros cometidos, contra-atacava com velocidade fulminante.

O jovem e impaciente guerreiro jamais havia perdido uma luta. Conhecendo a reputação do samurai, estava ali para derrotá-lo, e aumentar sua fama. Todos os estudantes se manifestaram contra a idéia, mas o velho aceitou o desafio. Foram todos para a praça da cidade, e o jovem começou a insultar o velho mestre. Chutou algumas pedras em sua direção, cuspiu em seu rosto, gritou todos os insultos conhecidos, ofendendo inclusive seus ancestrais. Durante horas fez tudo para provocá-lo, mas o velho permaneceu impassível. No final da tarde, sentindo-se já exausto e humilhado, o impetuoso guerreiro retirou-se.

Desapontados pelo fato de que o mestre aceitar tantos insultos e provocações, os alunos perguntaram:

- Como o senhor pode suportar tanta indignidade?

- Por que não usou sua espada, mesmo sabendo que podia perder a luta, ao invés de mostrar-se covarde diante de todos nós?

- Se alguém chega ate você com um presente, e você não o aceita, a quem pertence o presente? perguntou o Samurai.

- A quem tentou entregá-lo - respondeu um dos discípulos.

- O mesmo vale para a inveja, a raiva, e os insultos - disse o mestre.

Quando não são aceitos, continuam pertencendo a quem os carregava consigo.

"A sua paz interior, depende exclusivamente de você .As pessoas não podem lhe tirar a calma, se você não o permitir."

Excelente Segunda-feira
Abraços       :]

Não existem sonhos impossíveis para aqueles que realmente acreditam que o poder realizador reside no interior de cada ser humano, sempre que alguém descobre esse poder algo antes considerado impossível se torna realidade.

Sds, Marcell

Na renovação da mente, renascerá sua vida. E o que parecia impossível acontecerá. E até na velhice você produzirá frutos. E a vida terá grande motivação sempre.

"E não sede conformados com este mundo, mas sede transformados pela renovação do vosso entendimento, para que experimenteis qual seja a boa, agradável, e perfeita vontade de Deus. (Romanos 12:2)“
