A thought on the Japanese people

Stormblood said:
There is a debate going on on races in other post and there's been talk of how Japanese are worthy of respect and admiration for how they managed to keep their country virtually clean from foreign cultures and religions, especially Xianity. This raised some questions for me and I eventually start reflecting upon the spiritual roots of Nihon. One thought led to another and ninjutsu stood out. I read little about it but here is an introduction.

Ninjutsu (or more traditionally known as Ninpō) is a Japanese martial arts style focusing on the use of stealth and deception in order to defend oneself or fulfil an objective. The martial arts of Ninjutsu is commonly associated with the Japanese shinobi. Ninjutsu traditionally focuses on the following 18 different skills. However, there are different descriptions of Ninjutsu skills among different "schools" that ascribe to "Ninjutsu" techniques.

• Seishinteki kyōyō - spiritual refinement
• Taijutsu - unarmed combat
•.Bōjutsu, Kenjutsu, Kusarigamajutsu, Naginatajutsu, Sojutsu, Shurikenjutsu - these are all weapon combat techniques
• Bōryaku - tactics
• Chi-mon - geography
• Chōhō - espionage
• Hensōjutsu – disguise and impersonation
• Intonjutsu – escaping and concealment
• Shinobi-iri – stealth and entering methods
• Kayakujutsu – pyrotechnics
• Bajutsu - horsemanship
• Sui-ren – water training
• Tenmon – meteorology


Now, while Ninpō is obviously related to warfare and military arts, by reading the 18 skills Seishinteki kyōyō is what jumps most to the eye. My opinion is thus that in Ninpō one might still find traces of the original Japanese spirituality and should be researched to discern what the Japanese version of our religion looked like.

This is just something I'm throwing out there in a raw (unresearched) state. I felt like sharing these thoughts and so I did.

Interesting post!

I just started learning Japanese. The 19th century christian missionaries believed that the Japanese language was created by Satan to hinder them. :cool: A friend of mine managed to pass the advanced level exam (JLPT N1) in 10 years. She was seeing a teacher every week. Generally, after 3 years of learning you can converse with your friends and after 5-6 years you can speak a subject oriented specialised language with fluency.

I have been thinking about starting ninjutsu for a few months. Unfortunately, in Hungary they are now lying the fourth wave of covid, and it is now compulsory to have a certificate of immunity at the doctor's office. I have not applied for vaccination, so I don't know if I will be allowed to train ninjutsu...

Unfortunately, authentic ninjutsu does not exist. It disappeared 2-3-400 years ago. Today's trends emerged in the fashion wave of the last century, and their fabled origin stories are unverifiable. For example, Hacumi sensei and Jinichi Kawakami are famous. Hacumi is the origin of the international dojos, an interesting figure. He is 89 years old and dyes his hair purple. :) Kawakami is associated with the Koga movement (the city is called Koka) and is the nominal head of the Igai museum. He is taken somewhat seriously by researchers, but has few disciples and is also unverifiable.

Original, authentic ninja scrolls turn up regularly. But they are a far cry from ninja films. For example, one scroll describes at great length the making of a night torch.

It's an interesting topic. I recently bought a book that tells, among other things, about the Japanese christian rebels barricading themselves in a castle in 1638. During the siege of the castle they successfully deployed the 'invisible' ninjas. :cool:
 
They had a Satanic culture, nowdays they are in some ways better but in other worse. For example they don't procreate enough and they have a very toxic work culture, they work too much.
 
It seems like the enemy couldn't damage them through mixing but they have corrupted a few things mainly when I look at anime manga etc and see the sister brother family etc incest trope and the adultification and sexualization of little children in the genre which is known as lolicon also note loli is a defamation of our Goddess Lilith.
It's sickening. The enemy Attacks on several fronts, and almost always targets our children
