What you will learn
You will learn the most indispensable philosophies to really understand Japanese people and culture -- Shinto, Buddhism as a whole, and specifically Zen Buddhism: to understand anyone, it is important to know what kind of philosophy the person grew up with!
After this course, you will have much better understanding of the way Japanese people behave and think, and the way Japanese culture and arts are.
You will find out how the philosophy of Zen -- to live in the moment -- deeply influences Japanese art, culture, and values.
This course will deepen your experience during your Japan trip with information such as how to enjoy different types of Shinto shrines, how to appreciate different types of Buddhist statues, powerful and dynamic annual Shinto festivals, how to best appreciate Japanese traditional arts, etc.
If you like/know Japanese "kawaii" (cute) culture, you will find out the background philosophy here as well.
Explore the beautiful concept of "ego-less and mindful state of mind," which is very important to understand Japanese arts.
