CHAPTER 1

Bushido as an Ethical System

hivalry is a flower no less indigenous to the soil of Japan than its emblem, the cherry blossom; nor is it a dried-up specimen of an antique virtue preserved in the herbarium of Cour history. It is still a living object of power and beauty among us; and if it assumes no tangible shape or form, it none the less scents the moral atmosphere, and makes us aware that we are still under its potent spell. The conditions of society which brought it forth and nourished it have long disappeared; but as those far-off stars which once were and are not, still continue to shed their rays upon us, so the light of chivalry, which was a child of feudalism, still illuminates our moral path, surviving its mother institution. It is a pleasure to me to reflect upon this subject in the language of Burke, who uttered the well-known touching eulogy over the neglected bier of its European prototype.

Legend has it that this oddly shaped tree was used by the 11th century warrior Minamoto Yoshiie to hang his armour from while 2 History Philosophically Illustrated (3rd Ed. 1853), Vol. II, p. 2. resting on the way north to subjugate the Abe clan.
