Almost all are Japanese terms. The dictionary can be used in the ordinary way if the Shintō term you want to look up is already in Japanese (e.g. kami rather than ‘deity’) and has a main entry in the dictionary. If, as is very likely, the concept or word you want is in English such as ‘pollution’, ‘children’, ‘shrine’, etc., or perhaps a place-name like ‘Kyōto’ or ‘Akita’ which does not have a main entry, then consult the comprehensive Thematic Index of English and Japanese terms at the end of the Dictionary first.

    Series JAPAN HERITAGE The statue of Amidanyorai in Shorenji Amidado Temple Photo: Satoshi Tanaka Thank the Lords The cultural legacy of the Sagara clan lives on in Hitoyoshi Kuma, Kumamoto Prefecture. n the Warring States period from the middle of OSAMU SAWAJI the fifteenth century to the turn of the seven- teenth century the daimyo lords of Japan were engaged in almost constant bloody conflict as theyI sought to protect or expand their territories. Many lost their lives and land in these tumultuous times. Even when peace came down with Japan’s uni- fication in the Edo period (1603–1867), many would lose their titles or have their land confiscated by order of the new Tokugawa shogunate. Few clans survived this turmoil, the Sagara clan of Kyushu. The Sagara clan hailed from the manor of the same name in present-day Shizuoka Prefecture but moved to Hitoyoshi Kuma (now Hitoyoshi City and Kuma-gun) in what is now Kumamoto Prefecture by order of the Kamakura shogunate at the end of the twelfth century. In its new territory, the Sagara Kumamoto Kuma-gun clan made an effort to preserve the culture that had Prefecture Hitoyoshi City existed there since ancient times in order to gain the respect of the people. 30 | highlighting japan Series 1 The two-storied, 12-meter-high Romon gate at Aoi Aso Shrine 2 A family enjoys a game of Unsun Karuta 3 Rafting on the Kuma-gawa river “Lords tended to reject or destroy the history and culture of their new territories, but the Sagara clan was different,” says Yoshifumi Wada, a member of the Hitoyoshi City Board of Education.

Daigongen MMJt?eM (Great Avatar Illuminating the East), the deified persona of Tokugawa Ieyasu $g JlliCJ?? (1542-1616). Two others of a similar sort remain in the possession of the Tokugawa family. What distinguishes these ten paintings from other depictions of T?sh? Daigongen is that they are based on dreams that appeared to the third Tokugawa shogun, Iemitsu %% (1604-1651), during the last decade of his life. Seldom displayed, the hanging scrolls are attributed to the shogunal painter (goy? eshi fPfflf?ffl) Kano Tan'y? f?WW:ft (1602-1674) and were likely pro duced following written or verbal notations from Iemitsu.

  • Explore Japan Hokkaido
    Welcome to JAPAN Open a world map and look at the extensive Asia/ Pacific region. Almost at the very center, you'll discover the Japanese archipelago stretching north to south along the eastern edge of the Asian continent. Japan has lured untold numbers of adventurers since Marco Polo first introduced it to the world back in the 13th century as " Zipangu — the Land of Gold." Though the Japan of today may not be a land of gold, the "Neo Zipangu" does possess powerful and magnet-like attractions: great cultural variety, colorful and inspiring natural attractions beautifully interwoven by distinct four seasonal changes, not to mention the overflowing hospitality of its people. As such, Japan is vigorously gaining in popularity as a tourist destination that is easily accessible from any part of the world. A destination any one can enjoy on a reasonable budget and with a sense of complete security. This is where the past literally greets the future. This is where they both mingle. Japan has a long history of absorbing advanced cultures from the Asian Continent from ancient times through the Middle Ages. Later it began to assimilate elements of Western civilization from the latter half of the 19th century. By selectively assimilating these many cultural influences, the country has successfully added rich new dimensions and depth to its indigenous culture. This marvelous harmony between the refinement of things and concepts "Oriental" blended with the leading-edge technology and the often Ultramodern urban lifestyle you find in Japan today is truly proof of a long and eloquent history.

Folk customs are based on the Five "E"s: Existential, Experiential, Experimental, Empirical, and Event Oriented. The 5 Es Existential, Experiential, Experimental, Empirical, and Event Oriented Here are the relevant definitions of the Five Es, as they apply to a Folk Religion. While none of these are unique to folk religion, if a religion's praxis is based on all of these and control of that praxis is local, that religion may be considered to be "folk". Existential Relating to or dealing with existence. Based on experience; empirical. Existence The fact or state of existing; being. All that exists. A thing that exists; an entity. Specific presence; occurrence. Existentialist Based on the idea that you are what you say you are, because you engage in some of all the practices that make it up. The folk, the commons, are usually existentialists, as opposed to essentialists. Essentialist Based on the idea that because of what you say you are, you must engage in all the practices that make it up.

  • Business Environment in Kyushu
    Business Environment in Kyushu October, 2012 Kyushu Bureau of Economy, Trade and Industry Direct investments into Japan from foreign countries generate a wide variety of benefits, such as the addition of high added-value to industries, creation of employment opportunities, stimulation of local economies, and enhancement of consumer interests. Such investments enhance Japan‟s entire economic growth potential and contribute to the revitalization of local economies. In this regard, they are important to our country. To attract foreign companies to Japan, we believe it is important to raise the attention of as many companies as possible, by disseminating and providing the country‟s regional information. This document explains the strong points of Kyushu as an excellent investment destination: its vicinity to Asia, wealth of industries such as automobiles and semiconductors, and research and development capacity.
