Honoring the Samurai girl

The more onago is bullshit, the more the world will be bullshit.

The stronger you are, the calmer you will be. 

The more you can hang your head and bow low, the more genuine nobility and strength you will acquire.

In Hinomotoichi's Calligraphy Trial Plan, students do not pick up a brush and start writing immediately after the lesson begins.
Instead, we begin by explaining about the culture of calligraphy and the history of calligraphy in Japan.
This is because it helps them to better understand the difference between Japanese calligraphy and caligraphy, which is a form of character decoration that also exists in other countries, and to appreciate the beauty of the Japanese language.

Samurai are born aware of their "honor"
The goal of the aspiring samurai was not wealth or knowledge, but honor.
Honor is a goal to be pursued "within oneself," without regard to profit or loss. Therefore, "honor" that is concerned with public reputation is not real honor.
#katana #bushido #honor

The meaning of shogun is the commander of the samurai appointed by the emperor. In modern times, it refers to the position of commanding and directing an army. It is also used as a term of respect for the boss.

More than 400 years later, Yukimura Sanada has not forgotten his debt of gratitude and remains loyal.

『恩義を忘れ、私欲を貪ぼり、人と呼よべるか！？』

"Can anyone be called a human being who forgets his debt of gratitude and only thinks well of himself!?"

#osakacastle #samurai #Bushido #yukimurasanada #katana

The sword is the soul of the samurai; it cannot be sold even if it starves to death.

Bushido made the sword a symbol of his power and valor. From an early age, one is taught how to use a sword. He started with a wooden sword, and when he reached the age of 15, he was allowed to carry a serious weapon. At that time, he became aware of his self-respect and sense of responsibility for carrying a dangerous weapon in the street.

 remember that one step outside the doorway is the world of death.

SAMURAI Armor

Samurai fought fair and square in one-on-one battles, which was the samurai way of fighting. During this time, it was not acceptable for the adversary to initiate a fight. If they did, they were considered "cowards.

#osakacastle #samurai #calligraphy #katana

In Samurai Calligraphy Plan
A samurai is a man of letters and a man of martial arts, studying both arts.
For the Samurai, the way of literature and the way of martial arts are like two wheels on one wheel. Samurai honor, which believes that the way of literature and the way of martial arts are two sides of the same coin, aims at the path of both literature and martial arts through two experiences: Samurai tea ceremony and Samurai calligraphy.
The spirit of the Samurai is a way of life and death, a way of letting go of attachment to life and living in this lifetime. Through Samurai honor, students acquire the spirit of Bushido.

There is also an aesthetic sense of stillness, and it is important to keep one's mind quiet and focused when writing.
