oshiro Mifune, the popular actor famed for his characterizations of quick-witted, taciturn samurai, never uttered a word about it. Akira Kurosawa, the well-known movie director, kept inscrutably mum. Not one of the many hundreds of samurai movies made in the past century even as much as hinted at it nanshoku, the The samurai often called it bi-do, Known also as wakashudo, highest lord. Indeed it has been said that it would never have been asked of a daimyo, In its key aspects, wakashudo (often abbreviated to shudo and synonymous with nanshoku, classical Greece . Like pederasty it was a relationship between an adult man and an adolescent male. Like it, it ended or transformed into platonic friendship as the youth came of age. Like pederasty, it was a pedagogic relationship fired by the energy of mutual erotic attraction. And in like fashion, it was not exclusive of the love of women. Samurai married, though usually later in life, just as the Greek warriors did. The Japanese as well as the Greeks equated the love between a man and a beardless youth with all that was best in human nature, seeing it at times as the path to such ideals, and at other times as the goal itself.

Introduction People History Culture ... Communications Legal system Organization Provinces Disputes Japan Introduction Back to Top Japan, constitutional monarchy in East Asia, comprising four large islands, as well as the Ryukyu Islands and more than 1,000 lesser adjacent islands. It is bounded on the north by the Sea of Okhotsk, on the east by the Pacific Ocean, on the south by the Pacific Ocean and the East China Sea, and on the west by the Korea Strait and the Sea of Japan (East Sea). In Japanese the country's name is Dai ("great") Nihon or Nippon ("origin of the Sun"), hence, Land of the Rising Sun. The Japanese islands extend in an irregular crescent from the island of Sakhalin (Russia) to the island of Formosa, or Taiwan. Japan proper consists of the large islands of Hokkaido, the northernmost; Honshu, the largest, called the mainland; Shikoku; and Kyushu, the southernmost. The combined area of these islands is about 362,000 sq km (140,000 sq mi). The total area of Japan is 377,750 sq km (145,850 sq mi). Tokyo is Japan's capital and largest city.

What does the name of the famous hamburger chain, 'MOS Burger' mean? A. The 'MOS' in 'MOS burger stands for 'Mountain, Ocean, Sun'.

MOS Burger's love of people and nature is "Grand and noble like a mountain", "Possessed of a spirit as deep and wide as the ocean", and filled with a "passion that, like the heat of the sun, never burns out."And you thought you were just getting a hamburger.

137. Japanese Incense Educational webpage on the history and evolution of japanese incense ceremonies and culture. http://www.japanese-incense.com/

Japanese Incense The Journey of Japanese Incense It begins under the flower of peace, before the fall of the plum blossoms, before monks burning incense in Japanese temples, before the rising scents from scented kimono sleeves mixed with the fragrant incense of natural pine, cedar, lavender, and the flowers of the sun. The art of Japanese incense making has long been a tribute to nature itself. One of the great Awaseko of early Japan was called "Baika" which is Japanese for plum. Perhaps one way to look at the connection formed between nature, incense, and humanity is through poetry. . . I breathe in the cool incense smoke from the metal brazier, While thinking about a poem for my dear friend Lu Wa. My sandalwood-hearted companion spits out plum blossoms of smoke, Looking like the cloudy fog of the other world. Perhaps it's the soul of my friend the old mountain man In the smoke's dense patterns? - Kan Po, in memoriam (undated) Surely the connection between poetry and incense comes from the connection of poetry and nature . . . If the maple leaves On Ogura mountain Could only have hearts
