Not so much married, but they did send minor sons (those not the heir apparent) to become monks. Not too surprisingly, many of these high born aristocratic sons were often made very high ranking monks and even abbots fairly quickly.
I stayed in a buddhist temple up in Koya-san. I participated in a meditation session and I even got to experience a morning reciting of montras. It was quite fascinating, though I now have more questions than answers about Buddhism.
that's because you didn't raid the surrounding lands forcing other landowners to give in to buddhism. nor did you protest constantly in the capital. your experience is incomplete.
Michael Guider that’s good! Smart people ask questions where stubborn people believe that they know everything. Brownie points to you for wanting to learn more :)
As a history buff and a comparative theology student I love love love love your videos. So accurate and informative and completely comprehensive for the layperson. Keep it up dude.
I really loved this video a lot, one of your best ones, I think ^_^ As a Hindu, I applaud your one-line explanations of mantras, mudras and mandalas xD Funnily enough they're true xD
The reason why Nobunaga killed the monks was that they kept making themselves a pain for him. No less than three times he defeated them on the field, chased them to their mountain sanctuaries, and got them to verbally agree not to do that again while he was alive. When they joined the Azai yet again, Nobunaga just figured "wait... they are only protected by the Emperor's orders from a time when Emperors had power. I can just kill them all and the Court can't actually punish me for it. Heck, they might even pardon me just to pretend they still have power." And so he killed them first in a sneak attack (he learned the hard way against a different monastery when his soldiers were cut down by _gun monks_ how a direct fight was not in his favor). He wasn't a nice guy, for even the Jesuits whom he protected have a long list of examples of his abrasive personality. He wasn't against religion, he actively promoted the Kami beliefs. he might even been Buddhist since as you mentioned the Japanese didn't view the two beliefs system incompatible. He just wanted the religious people do study and do what you said was stereotypical of them rather than interfering with his wars. An ironic twist is that Nobunaga thought the Catholics were OK since although they had an organized religion, but this "Pope guy" surely wasn't in charge of an army right? Well... I think he might have been more critical if he realized the Papal Sates, while a shadow of its former self, had more political power than Japanese Emperors.
While true, I do seem to keep finding people that he barbecued an awful lot of women and children. Even if it was a case of the warrior monks taping babies to themselves and daring Nobunaga to strike them, it still isn't exactly a good look. We did get a badass retort from Nobunaga out of it about how, if Takeda Shingen was the protector of all under heaven, then he was the demon king of the sixth heaven
Buddhism already had a large pantheon of devas, which are pretty similar to kami (both are deities). That's what mainly allowed the syncretism of the two religions to occur so seamlessly....
At some point in Japanese history, a lot of Buddhist Temples began to co-exist with Shinto Shrines. During the Meiji Period, there was a separation between Shinto and Buddhism. The Shinto Religion became the state religion. After the end of World War II, the co-existence between a lot of Shinto Shrines and Buddhist Temples return.
My favorite yet, especially because I'm studying various Buddhist Philosophy and trying to arrive at some kind of deeper understanding. This was very helpful!!!!!!!!!!!!
I follow Shingon buddhism and the tantric Buddhist traditions of India and Tibet this video thus in particular was of great interest to me thank you for the enlightenment lord lin may the Buddha bless you.
Jhope Perfection it has more to do with the fact that Buddha spent most of his life and time teaching in what is today India I believe. I also suspect that people learning of Buddhism throughout the ages just called the entire Indian subcontinent, including India, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka just “India” or some equivalent in their own language, but yes Siddhartha Gautama was born in what is Nepal today.
In India, where I live, and Buddhism was born, the belief system, in Hinduism and Buddhism is that nature spirits are stronger than humans but subordinate to gods
I love this channel. Seriously. My daughter clued me to it, and I've been watching vids in their bite-sized batches. I love history mixed with humor, and this is a great way to expand my knowledge and understanding of Japan. Punish me some more. Arigato.
Obtaining information in a way that is informative, immersive, and rewarding has always been a struggle, especially when looking at history. Yet the pursuit for knowledge has never been stronger. Excellent work on these videos.
You don't need to care about the buddhist wars, it's the same in christianity: All branches: "To achieve salvation you must accept Jesus Christ as your savior. Yes, but our branch is the right branch! No! OUR branch is the RIGHT branch!" They star an war that killed hundreds of thousands... A jew friend told that it is the same thing in Judaism too...
There was actually a legal case done when Cyrus the great sent the Jews living in Babylon back to Judah and allowed them to rebuild their temple. The returning Jews didn't want the help of those who remained living in the area. Though to be fair the ones who were able to stay in the religion ended up polytheistic who worshipped Yahweh in a parthenon so... there is that.

Keep all these good stuff about Japan coming bruh! There are endless of them, you will always have somehing to talk about. This channel is underrated smh
A controversial priest in the Kamakura period was Nichren Daishonin. He basically told the japanese government that they were not practicing buddhism correctly and predicted calamities that would befall Japan if they didnt stop. All of which came true. Including the 2 foreign invasions of Kublai Khan. He believed that men and women were equals and could both attain enlightenment. As you can imagine, Nichren had many enemies. He was exiled twice. They tried to execute him once, but a shiny orb appeared and stopped his executioners from killing him. A very interesting life as far as Japanese buddhism is conerned
Never thought of that. I think of Nichiren as the Bruce Lee of Buddhism. He went against tradition, cut out all the unnecessary bull and created his own sect. LOL
Your sacred teachings should be "Get enlightened and gimme money" or "Get enlightened and become a Patreon". The other place where the sacred teachings are available is in the holy temples called "Thai massage salons", here you can the final experience aka "happy ending". 😉😎😃

5:40. Well. To be fair. The non egualitarian philosophy derived primarely from confucian ideas. Daoism sees the feminine and masculine aspects of the universe as equals, because they need each other. In fact, Daoist teachings are against confucian ideas, and against the idea of a complex state and society, because society took away the freedom from humans. Daoism is very anarchical in his core teachings. Confucianism instead, is very stoic and strict. Confucius ideas were not religious but social. He beleaved that humans need laws and strict regulations to achieve order and balance. The women staing inside the house and serving da man was one of these teachings. Daoism spred the idea of god worship in chinese budhism. Before budhism came to China, it was mostly non-teistic, they believed that supernatural entities exist, but that you should not worship them because.... I dunno... Budha is cooler? Soo yeah. The misoginist elements. All confucian. No hate on Confucius. He had good intentions for his beloved country. *PS:* Notice. Buddhism, since it came from India, already had many deities who were directly taken from hindu mithology. The greatest example of this is TARA. Who's considered a bodhisatva in buddhism, and a manifestation of Parvati in hinduism. When buddhism spread torward China, passing truought Tibet, many local deities were adopted and turned into bodhisatvas or other entities. BUDDHISM ALREADY HAD MANY DEITIES SINCE THE BEGINNING. BUT THEY WERE CONSIDERED INFERIOR TO THE BUDDHA AND, BECAUSE OF THAT, NOT THE ULTIMATE SOURCE OF SALVATION, THIS BEING THE CAUSE OF THEIR LESS IMPORTANT WORSHIP. Before spreading torward China, the worship of deities was way less important than the teachings of the Buddha. It was only after entering in contact with Daoism, and chinese folk religion, that the worship of deities alongside bodhisatvas became a popular act. Buddhism started to incorporate many folk deities to attract more followers. Basicaly. Instead of a violent conversion, they decided to fuse with the already existing religions, soo that the people would change their ideas gradualy and peacefuly. They eventualy did this with other asian religions. Like shinto. Also. I would like to make you notice that, even if Confucianism did spread more misogenistic ideas, some of these were already present in buddhism. In the original buddist path, females were not allowed. That's because they were considered a source of corruption, daughters of a demon... If you were a woman who desired to become a buddhist and achieve salvation, you would not be allowed to it. The only way for a woman to obtain salvation was by practicing the duddhist teachings and be reborn as a male in the next life... Yeah... Kinda scummy... But they eventualy regected this dumb shit. 💁
Hermes Carraro I would just like to say that Buddhism was never non-theistic. The original Buddha probally acknowleged the Hindu pantheon, but he considered them all to be ultimately impermanent. That is, they too were bouns by karma and would ultimately be reborn as something else.
@@andrewollmann304 Yes. That is what I said. There were gods etc. But the Buddha advised to not focus on them cause they were flawed, hence why not a proper source of salvation, wich could only be achieved by humans efforts alone. 💁
Ah yes im glad you mentioned the FUJIWARA CLAN WHO FAMOUSLY MARRIED THEIR DAUGHTERS INTO THE IMPERIAL FAMILY, GIVING THEM CONTROL OVER THE HEIAN COURT FOR 200 YEARS
One of these days I'm going to invite some friends over to watch a marathon of your videos and make a drinking game out of every time I hear the word Fujiwara.... I just have to find a few people I won't mind drinking with but don't mind if they die of alcohol poisoning

The greatest example of this is TARA. Who's considered a bodhisatva in buddhism, and a manifestation of Parvati in hinduism.
When buddhism spread torward China, passing truought Tibet, many local deities were adopted and turned into bodhisatvas or other entities.
BUDDHISM ALREADY HAD MANY DEITIES SINCE THE BEGINNING.
BUT THEY WERE CONSIDERED INFERIOR TO THE BUDDHA AND, BECAUSE OF THAT, NOT THE ULTIMATE SOURCE OF SALVATION, THIS BEING THE CAUSE OF THEIR LESS IMPORTANT WORSHIP.
Before spreading torward China, the worship of deities was way less important than the teachings of the Buddha.
It was only after entering in contact with Daoism, and chinese folk religion, that the worship of deities alongside bodhisatvas became a popular act.
Buddhism started to incorporate many folk deities to attract more followers.
Basicaly.
Instead of a violent conversion, they decided to fuse with the already existing religions, soo that the people would change their ideas gradualy and peacefuly.
They eventualy did this with other asian religions.
Like shinto.
Also.
I would like to make you notice that, even if Confucianism did spread more misogenistic ideas, some of these were already present in buddhism.
In the original buddist path, females were not allowed.
That's because they were considered a source of corruption, daughters of a demon...
If you were a woman who desired to become a buddhist and achieve salvation, you would not be allowed to it.
The only way for a woman to obtain salvation was by practicing the duddhist teachings and be reborn as a male in the next life...
Yeah...
Kinda scummy...
But they eventualy regected this dumb shit.

Shit...
I lost his ❤️...
That...
Is unfortunate...
Oh well.
The important thing is that others will learn from this onsignificant comment.

Hermes Carraro I would just like to say that Buddhism was never non-theistic. The original Buddha probally acknowleged the Hindu pantheon, but he considered them all to be ultimately impermanent. That is, they too were bouns by karma and would ultimately be reborn as something else.
@@andrewollmann304
Yes.
That is what I said.
There were gods etc.
But the Buddha advised to not focus on them cause they were flawed, hence why not a proper source of salvation, wich could only be achieved by humans efforts alone.
