Exploring the unique synthesis of spiritual traditions, Kaiten Nukariya's work delves into the religious and philosophical foundations of the samurai class in medieval Japan. He highlights the predominant role of Buddhism, particularly its concepts of impermanence and non-attachment, in shaping the samurai's perspective on life and death. Additionally, the influence of Confucian values on their ethical code is examined. Emphasizing self-control, mindfulness, and meditation, Nukariya illustrates how these practices contributed to the samurai's pursuit of enlightenment and inner calm.
