A description of japanese thinking |
Most of japanese people are atheists. Do you think so?
It is wrong!
They have a god that is the greatest, do not belong to the religion, named
"O-tento-sama"!
It means "manners of the heaven".
Originally, japanese people didn't have the words of "religion, faith". These were unnecessary words for them because japanese people were living always with some gods.
That's why, possibly, you can judge that japanese are atheists.
A thinking of the life and the spirit of japanese people, however this is in my opinion.
Frequently, Japanese people can feel some force out of created works that have no life naturally.
The plants have the life, but has not a spirit. the animals have the life, and have some spirit(will). humanbeings have the life and the enough spirit.
Created works that was created by humanbeings have no life, but these were probably contained the spirit out of the author.....
On account of japanese people can stand in awe of the created works.
