***** Why do we have to hate India? We have no reason to hate Indian people. UA-cam is full of lies and propaganda. Get information literacy. Many sneaky racists are using fake nationalities and spreading anti-Japan or anti-Indian propaganda every day every day every day.....on UA-cam. And every nations has more or less prejudice and racism to other people or nations.

As Japanese, I respect profoundly India as a great civilization, which gave many important elements to our culture. Historically India and Japan have deep interaction and deity is one of the influential things that learned from India. When studying Indian religion, I'm always overwhelmed by its huge scale of perspective to the universe...
Thank you for heart-warming words. Such problems are also happening in Japan. Some people don't take notice on our religions, which inherited beautiful philosophy from Indian great civilization. Even Shintoism, which is our indigenous religion, have interaction with it. However, simultaneously, another groups have been launched activity to restore the situation, recently I can see positive phenomenon inside this sphere. Also I heard that India started focusing on the religious issue. I desire that these heritages will be inherited for future.
I am an Indian woman married to a Japanese man with two beautiful children. There is so much synchronization between both our cultures that it just works!
im mexican and my three favorite countries in the world are japan, india and china for me it's like a dream come true knowing that they are historicly connected :')
Thanks. Your culture has also a rich heritage. Your civilization is so ancient. The Mayas, Aztecs and the Incas. But colonization by the Spanish destroyed everything. The same thing happened with India. The British plundered and looted us. In fact most of the European countries colonised the other parts of the world...
India and china was connected by virtue of religion and metaphysical learning, Japan was a disconnection of bloodline from China since the era of Qin Shih Huang the Emperor who united the 3 States to form “ China “ n china nvr existed till the Qin Dynasty ...
Arghyadeep Pal Indias fucking ruling class betrayed ordinary Indian citizens. India failed to develop like China because of Indian politicians exploiting ordinary Indian citizens. Clean your own enemies first.
@no what about Pakistan and China. China receives woman from Pakistan for sex and Pakistan gladly gives them those woman india has respect for woman that why India is called in a female name bharath matha . And inspire or rape sex it happens in every country
I'm a half Japanese raised Shinto-Buddhist but I practice Hinduism and Shinto. I can say that this is accurate and that India and Japan are very much intertwined. Many Shinto Japanese also worship Ganesha, or other Hindu deities, both spiritualities coexist in peace.
i feel happy that a japanese girl is comenting in english and i am happy about your comment , i am an indian , and i am a hindu person & i accept all religeions and humanity.
Akira Kobayashi Actually japan dont learn directly from india.japan culture and buddhism all learn from China. 像法年代 ALL deities and god were all from China .All deities god writting and given the name were in Chinese.
Eagle Yi, Maybe, but the Chinese learned Buddhism & various other things from India when they came for higher education to Nalanda & Taxila Universities long ago. Scholars like hiuen tsang have a hand in spreading Buddhism in China after returning to his motherland from India, travelling & completing his education here.
India didn't forget its cultural roots. It was systematically destroyed in a series of foreign invasions that continued for more than a thousand years and still continues. But there's no point in complaining since Sanatana Dharma teaches us that the world is one big family. Sooner or later, all cultures would come together to form the ultimate religion 'humanity'
definitely becaz.. HINDU... it is not a religion to claim something or worship just becaz some people made up it as religion(a belief system- hindu'ism').. hindu word is made up afterwards but actually came from 'sindhu' means between hills and ocean. its geographical identity. moreover it is slways about MUKTI - liberation beyond karma to realization or enlightenment of form and formless, human to universe and consciousness.... so that is how "budha(means no-mind), krishna, shiva(means that which is not), jesus(know thy self), sai, kuran, ram, etc emerged who are actually enlightened humans and others like da vinci, nikola tesla, ramanujan, etc, are oriented dimensionally.. one can see different type of videos on Sadhguru jaggi vasudev- isha founder in tamilnadu, mystic, enlightened human and non-religious person.. .... here truth is authority not viceverse... 'creation is SOUND, creator is STILLNESS'. hence meditation (means no act). it is always to balance feminine masculine, yin yan, heaven hell, good bad, up down, equal receptivity and action to shusmna one or neutral point... India was never a worshiping country but free to question one's existence on this earth and to stick on actual self experiences with truth rather fantasies, blind beliefs and thoughts or emotions of just 5 senses. BHARAT (means sounds-sensations samskrit-word) everything is connected animals, goats cows, birds, trees so one cannot kill just like that reason, they get anxious scared just before death and when a person eats that dead food will get influenced by its behaviours making person more aggressive, violent, fear. thats why americans, muslims( who are too religious), some hindus(who think themselves as religious) and others throughout the world are very violent and hyperactive, and some cannot control self thought and emotion also... while sea food atleast ok reason it is a bit farther from land.. just an additional information thanku :)
I think, Sanatana Dharma may also be doing de-service by generalizing the Indian tradition and thus denying the experience and knowledge of our ancestors and their collective wisdom in form of Hinduism. I would rather go to the base and see, how deep it goes and what i may find therein.

If you spend anytime In Japan visiting temples and shrines It becomes blatantly obvious that there Is a connection to India. Some of the places that I have visited In Japan are stunning, truly astonishing. Nara, Kyoto, Nikko, Yamadera, Kamakura....the list goes on. Beautiful.

Oh they are chanting mantras in exactly same way like it is in Sanskrit in Hindu temples, they are even naming Indian Gods & Goddess in Sanskrit in Aarti. From childhood itself i loved Japanese culture, but, I was not knowing that, it is so close to Indian culture. I would like to see japan & their culture in more detail. I'm overwhelmed while watching this video. Their is another culture very close to Hindus.
but you should know a fact that the indian culture were unable to give its influence on japanese without the chinese culture,which play the role of bridge between them.acutually,the indian culture which accepted by japanese wasn't the original version,but the one which had been selected and changed by chinese.
It's only in certain (Tantric Buddhist) temples that goma (homa) is practiced. Mount Koya is where the centre of Japanese Tantric Buddhism is at. The majority of Zen & temples of other sects do nothing of the sort. But yes, the Vedic/ Tantric tradition is very much alive & thriving in those spiritual pockets in Japan. & very powerful. I had the fortunate karma to go to Koya twice & would not miss the 6am homa at Eko-in Monastery.

I am from the Assam, India (situated to the north-east of India), and I was in Japan last year for couple of weeks for a geological field work. It was the first time I was in Japan, and the floras including people, the atmosphere, all the shrines, culture etc. gave me some sort of a feeling that I am at home. The rural places have striking resemblance with the villages of Assam as well. I didn't have so much information about the similarity in deity worship of India and Japan. Later only after doing self research about the ancient history of Japan, I was overwhelmed by it. I have read about a sunken ancient cities in one of the Japanese islands. Wonder what more things are still there to be explored.
Kerala temples follow tantric unlike other Indian temples which follow the vedic way of pooja. The temple architecture is also very different from other neighboring states.
becaz it is not a religion to claim something or worship just becaz some people made up it as religion(a belief system).. hindu word came from sindhu means between hills and ocean. its geographical identity. moreover it is slways about MUKTI - liberation beyond karma to realization or enlightenment of form and formless, human to universe and consciousness dimensionally.. one can see different type of videos on Sadhguru jaggi vasudev- isha founder in tamilnadu, mystic, enlightened human and non-religious person.. thanku :)
However there's a clear distinction between Shinto mythology and Hindu mythology. For instance, the sun is a god, Surya, in Hindu mythology whereas in Shintoism, the sun is the goddess Amaterasu.
Yes Japan is perfection in everything. They have moved forward taking their culture along. What we Hindus of India done? We moved forward, but gave up our culture, at least to an extent. After Independence Indians tried to be closer with the west, which had nothing in common with us. We never turned our heads to the east, where most of the people share our culture, such as Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, Lavos, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Indonesia.

Yet when I visited Bodhi Gaya years ago,I passed by a Lingam shrine,and I was shocked to see two idols of Buddha put outside the Lingam temple as though they were guards(chowkidar) for the Lingam shrine!
punit p actually LINGAM is for spiritual experience due to its ability to concentrate pure energy at one place. though many people donot know they just go blindly about it. but it is about to keep the energy pure and transparent and people go there to experience that .. some enlightened experiences. it is not about stone or idols or human worships etc but as a support for enlightening one's senses beyond 5 senses.. so may be that's why... some lingas cannot keep that energy so they pour milk water to keep it energitic. and some linga donot need... like dhyan-linga in tamilnadu by isha foundation... ........ becaz HINDU, it is not a religion to claim something or worship just becaz some people made up it as religion(a belief system).. hindu word came from sindhu means between hills and ocean. its geographical identity. moreover it is always about MUKTI - liberation beyond karma to realization or enlightenment of form to formless, human to universe and consciousness dimensionally.. for more INFORMATION one can see different type of videos on 'Sadhguru jaggi vasudev'- isha founder in tamilnadu, mystic, enlightened human and non-religious person.. thanku :)

@@ovrdozzzz I think, it is a misunderstanding, the belief is always man made as it come from man and it is the facts which are not man-made. Believes and facts are two different things, sometime believes are proven to be facts, sometimes, they aren't and sometime, we don't have a proof.
FASCINATING!! I spent some time in Zen Buddhist temples in Japan and felt connections to Indian spirituality, especially having spent some time in Indian temples before going to Japan.
Hinduism is the only religion (In fact culture) which is not book-based religion, books come into existence by 5000 years ago through meditation (vedas, etc). Hindus main aim is enlightenment, Liberation, freedom from birth and death. God is secondary to them, In the Gita, God guides him (Arjuna) to enlightenment and righteousness (Dharma) not to stick to him. Hindus are seekers, not believers ( like other religions). Hindus follow karma yoga (good actions). Meditation, Yoga (union with the divine), self-knowledge (who am I), penance, watching breath are primary to them and book/s are secondary to them. Other religions concept is one god exists but Hindus concept is the only god exists in everything and everywhere nothing else. Hindus say body and mind do not belong to you one day you have to leave them. Only your real self is yours find out that you ll be enlightened. Hindus say all living beings are divine. They say both waking state and sleep state are an illusion(Maya). Actual Hinduism is sanatana dharma means an Eternal Religion

I learnt half of Japanese and Indian mythologies by watching Naruto. Thanks a lot to kishimoto sensei for implementing both the cultures in equal measures and thus portraying the long roots of both Buddhism and Hinduism.
I have travelled to todaiji temple in nara and when I was there felt a familiar cultural connection. I’m from the south of India and i never knew that Bodhi Sena a monk from where I am from visited and inaugurated the same temple in japan. Absolutely mind blown.
I love Japan since i was 13 and wished to go there in future and spend my life there...now i am 20 and by watching this Documentary i am defiantly looking forward to live there...great Documentary
Rajeev Kulariya SO why did you use it? You made a mistake. I think you meant to write, "definitely", but wrote "defiantly" instead, a completely different word.
I am amazed by the profound influence of India across the world thousands of years ago. At a time when travel was mainly by horse carriages, ships and walking. Also I have been to Japan a couple of times but was unaware of the indian deities in Japan, will make it a point to visit the temples with my "eyes" opened. 🙏
In Singapore, I saw Hindu medium from Hindus Temple visiting Chinese Taoist Temple with some spiritual exchanges or delivery. From my point of view Hindus and Chinese temples are in some way related. By the way I am a Buddhist in Singapore.
Felt really touched after watching this....and as Indian I feel like sharing my view's.... Yesterday 16 Feb 2021 was 'Vasant panchami' according to Hinduism we do 'Sarswati Puja' means we worship Goddess Saraswati ( the goddess of knowledge, language, music, arts ) and so to bless us with that we celebrate this day. My mother told me to write some 'saraswati stotra' or atleast her name 108 times and I was like ' mom , who does this things in today's world ' and now I am realizing that other countries are respecting Indian spirituality and passing as it is ......and here we are neglecting and being westernized 😣😔😔🙏 . . . . Now onwards I will sincerely bow down......😊🙏.
Bruh It's so refreshing to see the people recognize the striking similarities between Sanatan Dharma and Shinto. These shared roots have profoundly enriched and influenced art, language, culture, traditions, and society as a whole, taking them to new dimensions. I can only hope that this shared history reaches billions of people across these two great nations and beyond, because so many remain unaware of the deep connections our ancestors shared.🇮🇳❤️🇯🇵
We Indians are so much influenced by western culture, after seeing this my respect to my religion and culture has increased, thank you for such an amazing episode on the rich culture that i belong to.
Western culture is also Indian but they are too close minded in the past so they got opened by Indian teachings during the British and took everything too seriously and fucked up everything like they always does

Time capsule of ancient Hindu and Buddhist thought is right because here in India a lot of the literature and rites and customs were lost because of the invasions and destructions, so maybe we rediscover our ancient heritage also by studying Japanese heritage,rituals and culture.

To be exact, "Hindu influence exists in Buddhism transmitted to Japan" is correct. Besides that there are also influences of Japanese religion, such as Judaism, Zoroastrianism and animism.
I agree.many people were commenting that the Japanese culture oriented from hindu culture.it doest fit completely.old/ancient civilization are always influenced by many culture/civilization just like in Japan.

India is center of the world but lost because of British it's natural it will recover and will be at the center not only for Asia but the whole world even Western culture has so many indian ideas adopted by the west but not the idol worship and Atman
Japan and India are true friends, even the Japanese president Shinzo Abe declared that' India is our own country ' I think Japan and India should be united to form a new country. It will be easy to counter china by gdp.
The connection between ancient Indo Aryan practices and Japan is so ancient, it is interesting how this old practices survived more in their original form than in India, this was not only connection with India, also with Sogdians, Tocharians, Iranians. And Bodhidarma as i know was from Central Asia.
Hinduism is all about love ❣️ forgiveness brotherhood compassion towards others ,we don't convert anyone like other cult does ,we serve society by distributing food water and goods without discrimination ,
Japan's Indigenous religion is shintoism, By the arrival of Budhism in Japan ( in the 6th century AD ) Some Indian deities also entered into Japan, and these Hindu deities are worshipped along with the Shinto gods by a vast number of people.
Do you find these elements common too in the Thai Culture? I am not emphasizing about religion here, but if you noticed, the cultural elements of Japan are quite similar to Thai & Indian.
Iam surprised to know the relation between India and Japan .. so ancient and sacred .. Richness of Hinduism ..(Sanatan Dharma) Indonesia , Thailand and korea is also related with Sanatan Dharma which is incredible .. new generation should know about all this
Thanks for posting this video. It was very interesting and provides a lot of information. “Technology and transcendence are living together!” So true. I’m sure an Indian will feel quite at home in Japan.
My father was indian and I wish Japan and India would work together more closely. Japan has things to teach to India and India to Japan also. Japan is hungry for true spiritual growth, India is hungry to get its role back in the global stage. Japan can help India getting its place back and India can help Japan with well-being or spirituality. They are complementary to each other, almost like japanese and indian races were created as ying and yang. But in todays world materialism beats spiritualism, so it wont happen. Because spiritual / well-being things, will always be traded with lower value than their real value is. You also wouldnt pay someone 3000€ who tells you to not get a second car. He would deserve it, because he safed you even more money, but thats not the point. The point is that everyone thinks 3000€ is of higher value than the advice he got. When in reality its clearly the advice being worth more money. Thats just showing clearly that we live in a materialistic world in which material things are valued higher than their true value to a human and that spiritual things are valued lower than their true value in most of todays societies.
Thank you Sri Banoy! This is remarkable and timely to build Indian self-respect and much needed unity to set a peaceful, universal direction for our delecate world in crises. Please make other similar videos for all southeastern countries. And also the sensitive spiritual direction set by ISKCON in the modern world today, which is in need of sensitive bhaktiyoga to counter coarseness of materialism created by the Western capitalism.
There is Actually.... need to understand the greatness of Indian ancient culture. We do worship to deities but not pray to God. These are different words. worshiping deities means finding the qualities of our deities in our self, 'Sanatan Dharm' is not a religion, Dharma means our duties not religion, Ancient Indian Culture believes in "KARMA" not in Pray, We do Puja, but Puja doesn't mean Pray, Puja means adoration....
That's the influence of Buddha and Buddhism they thought that India is like a heaven because it is the land of Buddha and Japan still has (48.6%) 84.8 million Buddhists.
Wow what an eye opening documentary, i couldnt believe myself when the Ambassador said 80% of japanese gods are originally indian gods. i always had massive respect for Japan.
There is no country on this earth that is not touched by Indian cultural influences, from food to spiritual beliefs! When will modern Indians will realize that the have untapped soft power to the ills of our modern societies??? Today we are experiencing that economically powerful nations do not bring peace ,prosperity and happiness but more disparity and destruction to this planet! The scientific advancement in technology, medicine and many other fields have improvement to human society. Unfortunately all these achievements do not bring any solution to the problems that cause sufferings because we do not understand the humand mind . Humans have created weapons of mass destruction that can annihilate the whole world , yet know one has came up to tame our destructive minds….
Japan and India have very rich cultures and their own traditions.This video is very informative and wonderful in demonstrating the connection between ancient India and today's Japan but it seems to be an attempt to give the whole credit of Japan's spirituality, religion and cultural progress to India. Although some deities were from India, they have been nipponized and now they are richer than India for they have protected and continue to celebrate them, unlike Indians who have forgotten their own rich culture and ethics by Brahman boot licking and now trying to restore the impure version only for political purposes. Japan deserves the credit and does not owe Indian anything.
Its helps to understand that sanskirt is a language in which all mahayana buddhist text after 1 AD were written and then bought to japen. So it doesn't tells anything that show links between hindu and buddhism but connection between India and japen
for us Japanese, this is nothing new. Buddhism is from India.
The origin of Japanese traditional culture is from Buddhism (India) and Shintonism.
Shinto philosophy is more like Hinduism ēspecially Vedanta but Buddhism connection is with both.

I'm a half Japanese raised Shinto-Buddhist but I practice Hinduism and Shinto. I can say that this is accurate and that India and Japan are very much intertwined. Many Shinto Japanese also worship Ganesha, or other Hindu deities, both spiritualities coexist in peace.
i feel happy that a japanese girl is comenting in english and i am happy about your comment , i am an indian , and i am a hindu person & i accept all religeions and humanity.
Akira Kobayashi Actually japan dont learn directly from india.japan culture and buddhism all learn from China. 像法年代 ALL deities and god were all from China .All deities god writting and given the name were in Chinese.
Eagle Yi Talibani crap spotted.
Eagle Yi, Maybe, but the Chinese learned Buddhism & various other things from India when they came for higher education to Nalanda & Taxila Universities long ago. Scholars like hiuen tsang have a hand in spreading Buddhism in China after returning to his motherland from India, travelling & completing his education here.
or koi kaam tum pakistaniyo ko nahi ha?
India didn't forget its cultural roots. It was systematically destroyed in a series of foreign invasions that continued for more than a thousand years and still continues. But there's no point in complaining since Sanatana Dharma teaches us that the world is one big family. Sooner or later, all cultures would come together to form the ultimate religion 'humanity'
definitely becaz.. HINDU... it is not a religion to claim something or worship just becaz some people made up it as religion(a belief system- hindu'ism').. hindu word is made up afterwards but actually came from 'sindhu' means between hills and ocean. its geographical identity. moreover it is slways about MUKTI - liberation beyond karma to realization or enlightenment of form and formless, human to universe and consciousness.... so that is how "budha(means no-mind), krishna, shiva(means that which is not), jesus(know thy self), sai, kuran, ram, etc emerged who are actually enlightened humans and others like da vinci, nikola tesla, ramanujan, etc, are oriented dimensionally.. one can see different type of videos on Sadhguru jaggi vasudev- isha founder in tamilnadu, mystic, enlightened human and non-religious person..
.... here truth is authority not viceverse... 'creation is SOUND, creator is STILLNESS'. hence meditation (means no act). it is always to balance feminine masculine, yin yan, heaven hell, good bad, up down, equal receptivity and action to shusmna one or neutral point... India was never a worshiping country but free to question one's existence on this earth and to stick on actual self experiences with truth rather fantasies, blind beliefs and thoughts or emotions of just 5 senses. BHARAT (means sounds-sensations samskrit-word) everything is connected animals, goats cows, birds, trees so one cannot kill just like that reason, they get anxious scared just before death and when a person eats that dead food will get influenced by its behaviours making person more aggressive, violent, fear. thats why americans, muslims( who are too religious), some hindus(who think themselves as religious) and others throughout the world are very violent and hyperactive, and some cannot control self thought and emotion also... while sea food atleast ok reason it is a bit farther from land.. just an additional information thanku :)

The Japanese are more Hindu than the Indians them selves. Shame on the contemporary Indians.
I think, Sanatana Dharma may also be doing de-service by generalizing the Indian tradition and thus denying the experience and knowledge of our ancestors and their collective wisdom in form of Hinduism. I would rather go to the base and see, how deep it goes and what i may find therein.
@@ayanchakraborty3559 Save your civilization from Islam. We Hindus-Sikhs in India stopped march of Islam on Bharat. We steadily lost territory. Islam marched on Pagan Egyptian civilization & Egypt was 100% Islamised. Then Islam marched on Zoroastrian Iran, Iran 100% Islamised. then, Buddhist Afganisthan fell, then western India - now Pakistan is 98% Islamised. INDIA 15% Islamised & rising.
That's why Buddism & Indian religious ideologies have survived only to east of India. Clash of civilization is still on. Believe me. Within 70 years Pakistan Islamised from 80% to 98%. Similarly Bangladesh Islamised from 80% to 93%.

Japanese were lucky enough to be far from Muslims
correct
+dranzer gigs That's wonderful !
+dranzer gigs That's not true. There are many Muslims in Japan, to whom visas have been granted. There's even a nice mosque in Tokyo. Does your religion encourage people to lie like you have?
***** How did there get to be 10,000 Muslims in Japan if the government doesn't give Muslims visas? It's not all home-grown. I've met Muslims in Japan on visas.
***** Muslims can become permanent residents of Japan. Why are you making this stuff up? Japan's backwards, but not THAT backwards.
Oh they are chanting mantras in exactly same way like it is in Sanskrit in Hindu temples, they are even naming Indian Gods & Goddess in Sanskrit in Aarti. From childhood itself i loved Japanese culture, but, I was not knowing that, it is so close to Indian culture. I would like to see japan & their culture in more detail. I'm overwhelmed while watching this video. Their is another culture very close to Hindus.
but you should know a fact that the indian culture were unable to give its influence on japanese without the chinese culture,which play the role of bridge between them.acutually,the indian culture which accepted by japanese wasn't the original version,but the one which had been selected and changed by chinese.
Listen from 27:04 onwards, sounds like Tantric Chanting in India.
It's only in certain (Tantric Buddhist) temples that goma (homa) is practiced. Mount Koya is where the centre of Japanese Tantric Buddhism is at. The majority of Zen & temples of other sects do nothing of the sort.
But yes, the Vedic/ Tantric tradition is very much alive & thriving in those spiritual pockets in Japan. & very powerful. I had the fortunate karma to go to Koya twice & would not miss the 6am homa at Eko-in Monastery.

It's not Sanskrit. Its chinese characters being spoken in on'yomi. Onyomi means chinese reading of a kanji. Pls don't get the wrong idea.
I am from the Assam, India (situated to the north-east of India), and I was in Japan last year for couple of weeks for a geological field work. It was the first time I was in Japan, and the floras including people, the atmosphere, all the shrines, culture etc. gave me some sort of a feeling that I am at home. The rural places have striking resemblance with the villages of Assam as well. I didn't have so much information about the similarity in deity worship of India and Japan. Later only after doing self research about the ancient history of Japan, I was overwhelmed by it. I have read about a sunken ancient cities in one of the Japanese islands. Wonder what more things are still there to be explored.

However there's a clear distinction between Shinto mythology and Hindu mythology. For instance, the sun is a god, Surya, in Hindu mythology whereas in Shintoism, the sun is the goddess Amaterasu.
Yes Japan is perfection in everything. They have moved forward taking their culture along. What we Hindus of India done? We moved forward, but gave up our culture, at least to an extent. After Independence Indians tried to be closer with the west, which had nothing in common with us.

Hindus & Buddhists are related by spirituality, that is more divine,than blood relationship,.
Yet when I visited Bodhi Gaya years ago,I passed by a Lingam shrine,and I was shocked to see two idols of Buddha put outside the Lingam temple as though they were guards(chowkidar) for the Lingam shrine!
punit p actually LINGAM is for spiritual experience due to its ability to concentrate pure energy at one place. though many people donot know they just go blindly about it. but it is about to keep the energy pure and transparent and people go there to experience that .. some enlightened experiences. it is not about stone or idols or human worships etc but as a support for enlightening one's senses beyond 5 senses.. so may be that's why... some lingas cannot keep that energy so they pour milk water to keep it energitic. and some linga donot need... like dhyan-linga in tamilnadu by isha foundation... ........ becaz HINDU, it is not a religion to claim something or worship just becaz some people made up it as religion(a belief system).. hindu word came from sindhu means between hills and ocean. its geographical identity. moreover it is always about MUKTI - liberation beyond karma to realization or enlightenment of form to formless, human to universe and consciousness dimensionally.. for more INFORMATION one can see different type of videos on 'Sadhguru jaggi vasudev'- isha founder in tamilnadu, mystic, enlightened human and non-religious person.. thanku :)

Hinduism is the only religion (In fact culture)
which is not book-based religion, books come into existence by 5000 years ago
through meditation (vedas,
etc).
Hindus main aim is enlightenment, Liberation, freedom from birth and death. God
is secondary to them, In the Gita, God guides him (Arjuna) to enlightenment and
righteousness (Dharma) not to stick to him. Hindus are seekers, not believers (
like other religions). Hindus follow karma yoga (good actions). Meditation,
Yoga (union with the divine), self-knowledge (who am I), penance, watching breath
are primary to them and book/s are secondary to them. Other religions concept
is one god exists but Hindus concept is the only god exists in everything and
everywhere nothing else. Hindus say body and mind do not belong to you one day
you have to leave them. Only your real self is yours find out that you ll be enlightened. Hindus say all living
beings are divine. They say both waking state and sleep state are an illusion(Maya).
Actual Hinduism is sanatana dharma means an Eternal Religion

Why you are proud bro you religion is different according to your country
Japan and India are true friends, even the Japanese president Shinzo Abe declared that' India is our own country '
I think Japan and India should be united to form a new country. It will be easy to counter china by gdp.
The connection between ancient Indo Aryan practices and Japan is so ancient, it is interesting how this old practices survived more in their original form than in India, this was not only connection with India, also with Sogdians, Tocharians, Iranians. And Bodhidarma as i know was from Central Asia.
it's good that Japanese people also follow Hinduism 😊
Hinduism is all about love ❣️ forgiveness brotherhood compassion towards others ,we don't convert anyone like other cult does ,we serve society by distributing food water and goods without discrimination ,
Thank you for this enlightening information. Wasn't aware about this aspect. Feels great
Japan's Indigenous religion is shintoism, By the arrival of Budhism in Japan ( in the 6th century AD ) Some Indian deities also entered into Japan, and these Hindu deities are worshipped along with the Shinto gods by a vast number of people.
Do you find these elements common too in the Thai Culture? I am not emphasizing about religion here, but if you noticed, the cultural elements of Japan are quite similar to Thai & Indian.
Iam surprised to know the relation between India and Japan .. so ancient and sacred .. Richness of Hinduism ..(Sanatan Dharma)
Indonesia , Thailand and korea is also related with Sanatan Dharma which is incredible .. new generation should know about all this
There should have been hindu gods rather than telling indian gods because Hinduism doesn't only belong to India.
You are right
Wonderful! India and Japan are natural friends. We respect them as much as we respect ourselves. Thank you for this video.
Thanks for posting this video. It was very interesting and provides a lot of information. “Technology and transcendence are living together!” So true. I’m sure an Indian will feel quite at home in Japan.
My father was indian and I wish Japan and India would work together more closely. Japan has things to teach to India and India to Japan also. Japan is hungry for true spiritual growth, India is hungry to get its role back in the global stage. Japan can help India getting its place back and India can help Japan with well-being or spirituality. They are complementary to each other, almost like japanese and indian races were created as ying and yang. But in todays world materialism beats spiritualism, so it wont happen.
Because spiritual / well-being things, will always be traded with lower value than their real value is. You also wouldnt pay someone 3000€ who tells you to not get a second car. He would deserve it, because he safed you even more money, but thats not the point. The point is that everyone thinks 3000€ is of higher value than the advice he got. When in reality its clearly the advice being worth more money. Thats just showing clearly that we live in a materialistic world in which material things are valued higher than their true value to a human and that spiritual things are valued lower than their true value in most of todays societies.
Ganesha is best known most popular in Japan....
Maybe:)
Thank you Sri Banoy! This is remarkable and timely to build Indian self-respect and much needed unity to set a peaceful, universal direction for our delecate world in crises. Please make other similar videos for all southeastern countries. And also the sensitive spiritual direction set by ISKCON in the modern world today, which is in need of sensitive bhaktiyoga to counter coarseness of materialism created by the Western capitalism.
Such a delightful experience. Thanks Benoy Sir 🙏
Wow fascinating!! 🇮🇳❤️🇯🇵
Previously only people used have a nationality but now the world is becoming so developed that Gods too have a nationality!!!
Inderjeet Kumar Singh was it sarcasm
Wow! This is really enlightening for me. Every Indian and Japanese must watch it.
Did you watch the whole video?
@@anyaforger8409 yup
This is shocking and intriguing! Always loved Japanese people. Knowing that we had such ancient ties makes me even more happy.
I wish Indians had similar craze and knowledge about Japan as we have for the west! Japan is where Indians should primarily look for inspiration.
Not Indian gods but hindu gods
we can all agree that now they are asian Gods rather being Hindu or Shinto ... :p
Not God, Deities.
Don't tell me there's any difference.....
There is Actually.... need to understand the greatness of Indian ancient culture. We do worship to deities but not pray to God. These are different words. worshiping deities means finding the qualities of our deities in our self, 'Sanatan Dharm' is not a religion, Dharma means our duties not religion, Ancient Indian Culture believes in "KARMA" not in Pray, We do Puja, but Puja doesn't mean Pray, Puja means adoration....
+vinod pant deva would be a better word as there is no god... please see my other comment
Saraswati is personification of knowledge and skill, the goddess of knowledge and skill
Love the japansese people and Japan - ...from India
That's the influence of Buddha and Buddhism they thought that India is like a heaven because it is the land of Buddha and Japan still has (48.6%) 84.8 million Buddhists.
Wow what an eye opening documentary, i couldnt believe myself when the Ambassador said 80% of japanese gods are originally indian gods. i always had massive respect for Japan.
God Bless Japan we love you.
Hinduism, Buddhism, and Shintoism are more about spiritualism rather than religion. That’s why they have been able to coexist for all this time.
no wonder I being a Brahmin South Indian am most fascinated by japan and its people and places.
Because they follow hinduism to the core unlike in India because we create theories and send them to the world but don't follow only 50/50!😂
I love japanese people and there faces reflect unique kind of peacefulness. They are hardworking and cute. Also fierce sometime....like ninjas.
Not to forget the fierce Yakuza!!!
Should be Hindu deities worshiped in Mahayana Japanese tradition.
There is no country on this earth that is not touched by Indian cultural influences, from food to spiritual beliefs!
When will modern Indians will realize that the have untapped soft power to the ills of our modern societies???
Today we are experiencing that economically powerful nations do not bring peace ,prosperity and happiness but more disparity and destruction to this planet! The scientific advancement in technology, medicine and many other fields have improvement to human society. Unfortunately all these achievements do not bring any solution to the problems that cause sufferings because we do not understand the humand mind . Humans have created weapons of mass destruction that can annihilate the whole world , yet know one has came up to tame our destructive minds….
Greater India in the past - Spread from Afghanistan to Japan (West to East) , Central Russia to Lemuria (North to South).
Not necessarily India but indian religions ( Hinduism and Buddhism ) for sure.
Japan and India have very rich cultures and their own traditions.This video is very informative and wonderful in demonstrating the connection between ancient India and today's Japan but it seems to be an attempt to give the whole credit of Japan's spirituality, religion and cultural progress to India.
Although some deities were from India, they have been nipponized and now they are richer than India for they have protected and continue to celebrate them, unlike Indians who have forgotten their own rich culture and ethics by Brahman boot licking and now trying to restore the impure version only for political purposes. Japan deserves the credit and does not owe Indian anything.
I love Japanese people ,Great nation
Thanks Where are you from ?
yes live in Germany
Its helps to understand that sanskirt is a language in which all mahayana buddhist text after 1 AD were written and then bought to japen.
So it doesn't tells anything that show links between hindu and buddhism but connection between India and japen
