    The reason for now eyes: this far proceeds smallpox. The legend toes that Bodhidharma worked very hard to meditate but he struggled with falling asleep. So in an act of defiance, he cut off his eyelids and threw them to the ground. His eyelids turned into tea leaves and thus, the relationship between tea and meditation was memorialized. Today, tea is used by monks to fight sleepiness in meditation.

      sorry for replying late, but thanks for your comment!
      I'm happy to heart that. The themes I pick up on this channels are sometimes the ones even Japanese people are not familiar with. So it might be also interesting to see how people live in the culture.
      anyway, I wish you all the best! 😊

    Bodhidharma - was a prince from India who left his royalty and followed buddhism.
    He then traveled to east - where he was known as "Visitor from the West".
    He was one of the important figure in Shaolin temple and popularized Zen form of Buddhism (not founder of Zen)

      @@rekhaparmar9813 Dharma can mean Behaviour/duties, justice or law. This word is used in various situations.
      When Krishna say "Dharmayuddh", it means "Justice war" or "A war to protect law or justice".
      When Krishna say one must do their Dharma, that means one must do their duty.
      It all comes down to behaviour. A good behaviour. That's Dharma.

    Hi, I have a question. Make a wish and write it on a piece of paper. Paint one eye of the daruma and place the paper below it. Once your wish comes true, paint the other eye. After painting the second eye, what should I do? Should I keep the daruma, bring it to a temple, or something else?

    In Buddhism, dharma is the doctrine, the universal truth common to all individuals at all times, proclaimed by the Buddha. Dharma, the Buddha, and the sangha (community of believers) make up the Triratna, “Three Jewels,” to which Buddhists go for refuge.

    • @TheJapanalyst
      @TheJapanalyst  2 года назад

      the way I see it, we're aware that the red color is original for daruma, while we find other colorful ones more cute or fashionable. Moreover some daruma of other colors have specific reason to be painted in different color, for instance Matsukawa daruma is blue. In total even if it is not red, daruma is daruma for us.

    😁 優れた❗️That was wonderful and I seriously never understood the meaning of Daruma ( だるま ) and I will keep repeating this video along with the other videos later. I do have a few Daruma dolls in my bedroom but I never painted the eyes, do you think it is necessary to paint the eyes? There is a picture on Google images of film actor Fukushi Sota in his black and white Kimono and there is a giant Daruma doll behind him while he was at the 2014 film premiere of his movie AS THE GODS WILL ( 神々の意志 ), great movie! Anyway see you later my friend! どうもありがとうございます‼️🙏🇯🇵❤️🇺🇸😊

      well it depends, but mainly the Kanji character which has a good meaning is used.
      for instance:

      福:Good Luck
