The post war period is the first time that the Japanese government was forced to separate from religion, not for selfless reasons but according to its own laws and to preserve the existence of the Japanese State. Today we are going to explore how Yasukuni and its branches navigated the post war separation of State and Religion. We are going to look at some of the Legal cases that set precedent and how the vast majority of the government has tried to ignore those rulings.

Today we explore the origin and early history of the Yasukuni Shrine.
What is Yasukuni? Simply put it is a shrine dedicated to peace and the soldiers of Japan. It’s name translates to Peaceful Land Shrine (Yasukuni Jinja) and despite the name it is the most controversial Shinto Shrine there is. This is because is has continuously been at the center of post war / post Japanese colonization politics. How did it come about? Was it always the center of Japanese militant nationalism? Lets find out!

During the Nara Period, 6 distinct schools of Buddhism developed in the City of Nara. These would represent the major houses of Philosophical thought at the time and illustrate the importance of Buddhism in the intellectual development of Japanese Culture.
The Schools of Nara Buddhism:
Ritsu 律宗: strictly observance of the prātimokṣa and Monastic ordination
JoJitsu 成実宗: Transient phenomenon is not "real"
Kusha 倶舎宗: Dharma Analysis Treasury school, trying to understand Phenomenology and the self.
Sanron 三論宗: Experience without conceptualization, focused on three treatises that explained emptiness, mystical knowledge, and realities of physical things.
Hosso 法相宗: 8 kinds of consciousness, intense drills on use of the mind
Kengon 華厳宗, 花嚴宗: These sutras theorized the unobstructed interpenetration of all phenomena, or that all ideas and things can be penetrated and collected into one mind
