I think it would be amazing if ya'll went further into this. The magick, zen and the Onmyodo.
More videos and books like this please 🙏
Been trying to get information on ninja rituals and magick for many years, thank you for your hard work 🙏
Nice heavy gale sweater
And it’s June, pure wool
My teacher. "Shinto"
"Shinto"
"SHINTO".
I want to thank you both for the video & information 👊🏻
Love your work mate, keep it up
another excellent video keep it coming
Cataloging culture before it vanishes is noble work.
Surprising to see Celtic links within Ninja and Samurai culture.
Great video! 🤘🏼
Keep them coming! 🥷🏻
That’s why Oda Nabunaga hates Christmas and the military monks of mt. Hie (?) and the yamabushi of any surrounding temples. They burned the temples and monks to the ground. The survivors I love them.. it’s because of scholars like you and your entire crew and also my love of Budo, that this entire thing is just awesome. An excellent guest that you have been very knowledgeable. I love this.
this is so awesome. thank you guys
I think the very nature of the human has always begged, borrowed, and stolen things from many different things around the globe, this is what i find fascinating about Japanese culture. Japan is very good at excepting another idea or culture and making it a very Japanese thing or way.
This is excellent I am on board shingon Zen is an important aspect of meditation, buddishm, shinto is very interesting
I'm planning on saving as much as I can to try to get to Michigan in November and it's looking optimistic right now
Good info, love the way yall break it down. I really like the deep dive in to past cultures and religions. Personally I'm a pagan of the indo-european type. I can see some of the similarities to the samurai, and for sure the Indian influence. Love how they live by a code of honor, something missing today. Also love how you touch into the magic, and type of magic that was used. Keep up the great work!
Great video!
What about Shugendo and Shingon Buddhism? As I understand Shinobi were associated with esoteric Buddhism, and the rigorous pilgrimages of the yamabushi shugenja factored greatly into the endurance aspects of their training. Furthermore the kuji rituals are referenced in Shugendo.
Update Nojiri made reference to this point in the video.
All ancient religions believed in reincarnation. Even earlier Christianity did. Zen is basically Chan Buddhism from China. Bodhi Dharma was the one that brought that style of Buddhism to China. The Shaolin temple was the first Buddhist monastery. The two great vehicles of Buddhism, have been adopted all over the world.
There is no dought that the Shinobi practiced Zen. The high power of concentration is totally attainable using Zen Buddhism techniques. Im sure they practiced some form of it.
Well, not to be a nerd, but I think it was Origen that may have floated ideas about pre-existence of the soul and *possibly* reincarnation. No other early Christian theologian that I know of confessed this, aside from gnostic sectarians.

Just bought the hard cover death cult book. Thank you for dropping the price as far as you could... I think that should be the book to go viral.
You are a star. I hope you enjoy it.
I think a better place to start is that our western idea of religion doesnt appear in the east. The lines are a lot more blurry.
2:56 Buddhism was introduced to Sri Lanka in the 3rd century BCE by the missionary Mahinda, who was the son of the Indian Emperor Ashoka. On the other hand, Buddhism was introduced to Tibet in the 7th century CE, several centuries after it had already been established in Sri Lanka and other regions. Theravada Buddhism is the oldest surviving branch of Buddhism and is prevalent in Sri Lanka, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar. Not the other way around.
Perhaps my wording was confusing--- but to be clear, what I said was that Sri Lankan Buddhism came from "Indian Buddhism" --- not from Tibet. When discussing Indian Buddhism/Far East Buddhism, you essentially clump Sri Lankan and Tibetan together because they both come from the same root source.. the complex of "Indian Buddhism". However, I must point out that the idea that Theravada Buddhism is the oldest surviving branch of Buddhism is not really true. While Theravada is rooted firmly in the tradition of the Sthavira branch, many different schools and reformations took place between the original Sthavira and the Theravada of the present day. Many of those reformations and schools took place alongside of many other surviving schools. Another good source to understand this is to compare and contrast the Theravada Vinaya and the Mulasarvastivada Vinaya. But, having said this, regardless of the ongoing debate of "who is the oldest school" ---- I never said that Sri Lankan Buddhist came from Tibet. I said that Sri Lankan Buddhism came from Indian Buddhism (as a grouping), especially as opposed to "Far East Buddhism".
@@TadaGenjiYea might be the way you worded it, it makes it sound like the Indian and Tibetan and other buddhism become Sri Lankan Buddhism and other forms. It would be accurate if it was just Indian buddhism. Since Tibetan buddhism comes much later. Thanks.
I agree wholeheartedly that the interest in the Samurai, and the Ninja is waining. It was not like it was in the 1980s. As someone trying to run a martial arts school teaching these arts, I have seen a huge downturn in students. Yet is it is a shame as people are missing so much. Unfortunately the modern organisations such as the Bujinkan have not helped at all.
Anthony, the word you were looking for is Proto Indo European, and you see the same themes in everything from Norse religions to Hindu religions.
After Animism the first religious belief that worshipped a male sky god is traced back to Indo-Europe (Ukraine) and they travelled in various directions setting in India, Scandinavia, Greece, Germany and basically all over Europe.
Every religion comes from this including Hinduism, Greek mythology, norse, all pagan, and Christianity.
I could talk about religion in historical Japan for days but I'll keep my comment largely focussed on this one point. In the Tale of the Heike 平家物語, the premier samurai epic, they have a clear favoritism for Pure Land Buddhism with a secondary emphasis on "Shinto." However, shinobi were much later in history than the Tale of the Heike, and slightly earlier than Zen's big break in Japan. Also, I've already translated several very interesting stories about Onmyoji from the Heian Period that might be of interest. I was particularly surprised at how much the magic they used was concealment and invisibility.
You should get involved with us. Do a joint video with myself and nojiri
@@AntonyCummins I'd be happy to. Though I'm a bit concerned as I haven't even been doing this TH-cam thing for a year and I'm very unsure of how to do a lot of things.
Weren't many ninja buddist monks?
Not that I’m aware of
@@AntonyCummins well it would've given them a ready cover to blend in
Many thanks to all contributors.
Well there was a group of wondering shrine maidens (Shinto) that were doing espionage under Chiyone (sp?). Not Buddhist but yea…
Actually, some were
Hmm i do like samurai/shinobi no mono but im pretty much a hard atheist. I was into tao in my teens. But all this magic and spirituallity is the one thing that stops me to be to serious about it.
Does Steven Nojiri have a new youtube channel?
Yes he runs tada genji
I’m looking for a teacher in Buffalo, NY… if anyone can help me. I desire to pursue this
3 reasons I'm starting to dislike A.Cummings.
He's a handsome man.
He's books are solid, dare I say boring as it's only us hard core infomaniacs that read ancient manuals.
His dog is super cute.
As a martial artist, I've met few real people that get stuck right in and keep arts basic, this channel and the books are special.
👍👍👍👍👍
Hahahaha very cool
Great video Anthony, a question for you, i dont personally like black magic, but i do like budhism. Do you think black magic is a must? And what is your personal opinion on black magic ?
This is an enlightening read on this topic :
David A. Hall, The Buddhist Goddess Marishiten: A Study of the Evolution and Impact of Her Cult on the Japanese Warrior
Sections of Enpi Scroll from Yagyu shrinkage ryu play out situations in the diagrammatic representations, also in TSKSR. Ie sasagakure of yotsu-no-tachi
My instructor in Kung Fu San Soo, Weston Vermillion, here in
Olympia, WA...U.S.A. suggested that much of this Warrior
religion/spirituality/ethos originates with the Spartan culture.
Of course, there is much talk of a pre-existing advanced globe spanning civilization before a massive cataclysm, many of these practices may have originated from there.
Ancient Greeks inherited from the even more ancient Proto-Indo-European Koryos platoons. The most recent examples of their martial excellence, inherited from a tradition tens of thousands of years old, maybe longer, is the Berserker.
That's crazy that samurai martial arts are dying when you consider that jujitsu( that everyone loves today) is a samurai art from koryu schools
This is too Basic though.. wish you do real advanced stuff later Aswell.
22:00 AKBAN are probably Judaism 😅 prob wouldn’t like to do non Judaism stuff
Hahaha true
"Etc, etc, etc...." 😊 new natori drinking game watch this video and every time ya hear "etc " ya take a swig of sake 😂
Nojiri looks clinically depressed. Hard to watch.
He smiled 3 times. It must be a happy month.
god damn that animal cruelty stuff is horrific what was all that in aid of?
Black magic it is as crazy
Animal sacrifice is in literally every religion.
If you think that's horrible, then take a look at factory farming...
Shinto is Animism!
Why would akban take his students to a Buddhist shrine when he’s Israeli and most likely Jewish or Hebrew. You already established that there was a high probability that some ninja were practicing Christians meaning that there’s no specific religion that is practiced by all ninja. All ninja schools did not practice the same skills. Why they all follow the same religious beliefs. It’s fine to know the history but you can’t expect people to start doing rituals that they don’t believe in. Just saying.
Why would he study Japanese things. Same question
@@AntonyCummins I think it’s obvious that most western practitioners of Asian or, in this case, Japanese martial arts focus on what is useful and disregard the rest. It’s similar to why you left the bujinkan. You saw the parts that made sense but also acknowledged that a lot of it was just foolishness. I can agree with continuing things like traditional dojo etiquette to help instill discipline but things like animal sacrifices and blood drinking should be left to organizations that are already satanic to begin with. Believe it or not there are already dojo’s that are openly satanic and do teach magic rituals. To each their own but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Sadly it's becoming very popular nowadays .
Not just in martial arts, in my home town( we are a former communist country) a lot of young people and not just them are into some sort of magic and/or satanism.
What I find interesting is that most of those people are weak characters and just want shortcuts in life . @@kuji-in-deed369
