YAMATO IDEAL

Here is the Yamato Ideal what is taught in Japanease Imperial States.

(Using "he" means "he or she" and "his" means "his or her" and so on)

  1. Japanese is pure race called Yamato-Minzoku. So, all Japaneases are human only. From the first, no race except Japanease lives on the Japanease Islands. And they are ruled by legal goverment Yamato Imperial Court. ("Mikado" the Emperor's ancestor is the Goddes of Sun. In the Age of gods, sun goddes "Amaterasu" appointed her grandson to rule the Japanease Islands.) Who called as "Emishi", "Hayato" and "Kumaso", are not another race but they are only rebels.

  2. Other nations can't imitate and understand some Japanease Virtues.

    1. Tacitly Comunication : It's bad manner to say it to them directly.

    2. Harmony of each other: Good Japaneases respect the harmony between others. And they'll choice retreat than go,when harmonies will be broken.

    3. "Jingi" : Superiors must love inferiors. But must become severe for justice and duty.

    4. "Rei" the manners : Only Japanease is very,very well developed language into manners. Good Japanease never forget respect to anybody.
      But it's too difficult to undeerstand that which is the point to respect and how to humilate self or become modest to admire. Thease high developped manners is honorable culture of Japan.

    5. Loyalty and Trust : Good Japanease does his duty as 120% enough. He endeavers to do job better than expection. And feel sorry when he has done his job as 100% enough. It's honor to be expected do so.

    6. Respect for superiors : Good Japanease respect for elders, bosses, customers and so on as superiors.

    7. Shame & Honor : Failure of important job, to submit to enemies and to be polluted chaste, they are shameful thing and not only his shame but his family and offices he belong to. To swallow up shame is to force them to do so.
      Good Japanease must aim for the Honor of Samurai called Bushido.The Bushido is the lifestyle to make success on loyalty, "Jingi" and other virtues with conquering any great difficulty.
      In front of the problem of Shame and Honor, it's no problem living or dead.

    8. "Misogi" the cleansing of heart : No Shame and no Sin are forever. Japanease tradition has a rite to cleanse pollution of shame, sin, curse and so on. It's called "Misogi". Ancient Misogi was cleansing his physical and astral bodies with clean water at natural sacred place. But today, it's cleansing his astral boddies with blood of enemy who gave him shame or his own.
      (But desire to oppnent blood make a rally of each other. Then commonly Misogi with his own blood.
      For example, "Harakiri" suicide. If one do it fine, no Good Japanease investigate his other crime and shame.)
      Notice:If one made his Misogi with enemy's , he'll be tried criminal and judgement in consioderation of that.

    Some of thease virtues came from old China, but they are well developped in Japan.

  3. Legimation of Mikado(the Emperor)
    Who govern Japan is authorized by Mikado. With force or with election, who get the post of governer can't hold it without Mikado's authorization. Mikado is only family rule the Japan.

  4. Metahumans
    Metahumans especially orks and trolls were enemy of human in ancient days. Then it's disagreeable to live with them. They are called "Oni", it means gobblins. It's bad to allow them behave along their nature. Modern education make most of their harmfull nature beyond controll. Well,as long as they are gentle, we must allow them to live because of "Jingi" spirit.
    Elves and Dwarves are not so harmful as Orks and Trolls, but not all their interests are coincident with humans. Yamato-Minzoku as pure race include no metahumans. Metahumans in Japan are foreign visiters.
