  1. I was a weak christian. Now i’m strong muslim and i can say islam is the most correct religion. thanks for alaah❤

  2. @3:40 The timeframe is 7th century or so, the focus is on Korea and the text box reads "In Korea the indigenous script was linked to women and commoners while Chinese script was seen as elite and masculine". Was this supposed to be a statement about Japan at this time? Korean Hangul isn't invented until the 15th century. This seems pretty basic to be honest.

  3. How are Nepal and India not Buddhist countries despite Buddhism being born there ?

  4. compliment for your extensive knowledge, however 11:42 Jenogan where is this word from, I was never recognize of this dynasty even if I'm not historian

  5. I would be interested in more videos on Japanese religious culture because it's quite the complex tale. Thank you very much for another interesting one here!
    God be with you out there everybody. ✝️ 🙂

  6. Sad that we are hearing so many Indian words here which are related to Buddhism, but nothing regarding direct Indian Buddhist influences like Bodhisena or Siddham script.

  7. I've had the pleasure to visit Kamakura and Kyoto, in the summer of 2018. Felt very enlightened at my experience in Japan. Beautiful temples and shrines.

  8. Japan and Budhism are so deeply intertwined that as a young kid I used to think that Budhism came from Japan, i am from India 😋🤣

  9. Correction: Shinto is not completely Japanese indigenous faith…. The Shinto shrines have Hindu origin as well….
