This is a site about something with a Japanese cultural mindset in it.
That is, I will show you the Japanese cultural background in the Japanese language, culture, things, and foods.
But don’t mind thinking seriously. You can enjoy knowing the fascinating Japanese world.
I’m interested in the feature of Japanese cultural thinking way because it is so specific that it can not be compared to others. Of course, other countries cultures are respectful of each.
I think that Japan is facing a cultural crisis now after World WarⅡ.
Many people gradually forget Japanese mindsets and Japan becomes a just capitalistic society of the principle of competition. I want to convey the good things about Japan and keep them in people’s hearts.
But the Japanese naturally take over various cultural customs and mindsets subconsciously.
I believe that there are characteristics that make Japanese people Japanese.
The keywords to know about Japan are:
- Shinto as a Japanese religion
- Japanese Buddhism
- The faith of Kotodama(言霊); the power of language
- Japanese characters; Kanji and Hiragana
- Japanese Emperor(天皇; Tennou)
- Specific cultures based on the above elements
These things are super interesting and deep inside.
Many Japanese say “I don’t believe anything I can’t see”. But if it is true, they would never go to Japanese shrines.
I will update the content for your enjoyment.
