【In admiration of the first foreigner who became a Samurai】 Have you ever heard of a samurai named "Yasuke"? About 440 years ago, Yasuke became a vassal under Oda Nobunaga and was later granted samurai status. What is surprising is that he was an exotic man of African origin. Yasuke left his mark on the pages of Japanese history as "the first foreigner to become a samurai.

オ・モ・テ・ナ・シの向上のためにスタイル研修 武士道を極める体験 SAMURAIは鍛錬・行使・身の処し方などを徹底します。 それらを生と死のあり方を通じて体験していただきます。 名誉の観念は外聞や面目などの言葉で表されるが、裏を返せばすべて「恥」を知ることである。 「恥ずかしいことをするな」「対面を汚すな」「人に笑われるぞ」武士の間では羞恥心を知ることが幼少の教育においてまずはじめに行われた。 Style training to improve OMOTE NASI Experience to master Bushido At SAMURAI, we thoroughly train, exercise, and carry ourselves. You will experience them through the ways of life and death. The concept of honor is expressed in words such as appearance and face, but on the other hand, it all comes down to knowing ``shame.'' ``Don't do anything embarrassing.'' ``Don't make your face dirty.'' ``People will laugh at you.'' Among the samurai, learning about shame was the first step in childhood education.

Nagano Prefecture Tsumagojuku I got permission to take pictures, etc., and the explanation of the person who guided me at the historical museum was polite and I learned a lot. However, when I photograph people who are working, I always think that it is the same for me, but with the declining birthrate, there is a part of me that is worried about whether it will be connected to the next generation and even the future generations
