The samurai of the 17th century were not exactly the samurai we all think of when we look at movies like The Last Samurai or any of those classic films which Quentin Tarantino is such a fan. In fact the early 17th century began a class of Samurai which we call the Edo or Tokugawa period of the Samurai's history in which they moved from being the famed warriors of Japan and became more of a political/bureaucratic nobility. It was not uncommon at all for the Samurai of this period to purchase and wear fine silks and clothes of the highest quality.

This is because it has not been established in one's mind beforehand. From this, one's unmindfulness of the Way can be known. Negligence is an extreme thing.
