Ideals of the Shinran Followers

Kihachi Imai

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. People thus imagine Japan to be not only a: warlike nation but one that'likes to see others fight. Those intriguers who have been con stantly trying to alienate us from our friendly neighbors appear to have partly succeeded in, thus misrepresenting us. We do not deny that there has always been a group of such merchants unprincipled political merchants who avail themselves of every opportunity, just or unjust, to swell their private coffers. But these are a minority and are strongly denounced by their fellow-citizens who have sound judgment and high moral principles. They do not belong to the true Japanese aspiring after a spiritual civilisation. Again, there are some Japanese thoroughly intoxicated by the German craze for organisation, its military efficiency, and its philosophical ideal.
