A vexing homework assigment Joseph! I am a member of Soka Gakkai and I have been practicing Nichiren Buddhism for 23 years. I could easily write a thesis on this subject but that would be denying you an education. Study hard my friend!

JosephM, First of all, welcome to A2K. I know a little about how buddhism influenced the samurai, but I'm with NickFun, and believe you should do your own homework assignment. Wink BTW, my wife and I just returned from Japan last month after a ten day buddhist pilgrimage where we visited 33 temples.

It's a Zen thing. Sit under a tree till the answer hits you.


CI - you *will* be taking me on your next trip, won't you?

Some of you might enjoy this photo. I like this one, because it shows snow falling, and it's unusual to see a still photo of it.
