Sep. 20, 2009: Each religion's view of death in Japan


The ancient Japanese religious view will probably give us a glimpse into some clues about Japanese peoples' roots.
And, when talking about a religion or belief, its view of death is a fundamental tradition by which people could accept his/her death, or not.
A religion is made up of only two aspects: the view of death and ethics, I think.

Sep. 4, 2009: roots-our ancestors' discerning eyes


Since the Asuka-era(592-694), Japan had eagerly started to catch up with China and to model its state's and cultural form on those of China. It goes on and on: the building of the state's capital modeled on Changan(長安), introduction of the code(律令格式), Kanji(Chinese character), and Buddhism ・・・, which seem to cover almost all aspects of the state's foundations. However, particular attention should be paid to the fact that our ancestors didn't introduce eunuch, Imperial Exam, and religious aspect of Confucianism.
