kivikala Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Prowling around on the net I came to find for the Japanese Living National Treasures (Ningen Hokuho) there are 115 individuals. Masaaki Hatsumi is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kivikala Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I was refereing to a previous post, which......, if i recall, is the Togakure Ryu, through Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi (officially recognized as a living national treasure). ... my terse reply is simple meant to provide some information. I am not slighting Hatsumi, simply pointing out certain "rumors" appear be false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Warlock Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I brought it up, and i stated incorrectly. Apologies. In my efforts to present the information, i made an erroneous connection based on false statements by one site. In actuality, he was awarded the International Culture Award, from the Japanese government.http://www.bujinkansf.org/hatsumi/award.htmHe was also honored by the Pope, as previously mentioned. In truth, this one perplexes me, but here it is:http://www.winjutsu.com/papal-award.htm "When you are able to take the keys from my hand, you will be ready to drive." - Shaolin DMV TestIntro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Warlock Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Well, to clarify one thing... the living national treasure is not an ego thing, so it would have nothing to do with him being humble. It is a status presented by the government for those who maintain the crafts of Japan. This status comes with government subsidies and, of course, special recognition.But, again, it was incorrect information about Hatsumi presented on a website that i had perused and associated with the above-mentioned award.

h2whoa Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I think that ninjitsu is a philosophy, rather than a set of formd or patterns. Historically Ninjas were spies and stealth assains! Their are many misconceptions about ninjas, like their uniforms are actually red because red and black are both invisible in the dark, it is also red for hiding injuries and showing up undetected at a campfire in red would give anyone a heart attack!!Once you learn how to sneak and kill with stealth you will be .... Ninja like!!I am not saying that is all their is to being a ninja, but sneaking killimg and leaving no trace of ever being their is really all threi is to it, nothing mystical or magikal!!However claiming to be a ninja and making money out of it, is bad!!I train with the armed forces, i am pretty efficient with my stealth and camoflague, does it make me a ninja.. NO... but i woul say it is basically the same!!To any ninjas oout here I have deepm respect for you and if I am wrong I will be corrected, providing that you have evidence!! No matter how fashionable it is in Krypton, I will not wear my underwear on the outside of my Gi!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
