Podcasts about Hotei

Vor Jahren bekam ich beinah allergische Hautausschläge, wenn jemand mit dem Wort «normal» daher kam. Bloss nicht! Doch ein Retreat an einem supernormalen Ort diesen Sommer hat mir die Augen nochmals mehr geöffnet: Normal ist grossartig, mitten im Stinknormalen ist es genau so still, wie im Rückzug auf einem Hügel im Yogaretreatzentrum. Dass die Stille nicht an Bedingungen geknüpft ist, war mir klar – doch dass ich schlussamänd eigentlich wieder dort lande, wo ich angefangen hatte, das ist chli ein Schock. Und unglaublich lustig, irgendwie. Ebe, da sind wir unterwegs mit der Überzeugung, dass das Leben irgendwie speziell aussehen wird, wenn wir dann erst wach sind oder 24/7 in der Stille leben. Nope. Am Ende sitzt du wieder im Dorf, siehst vielleicht aus wie ein Bettler von weitem, so wie der Hotei, bist aber einfach zufrieden mit dem, was ist.      Mehr über Babaji findet ihr hier (leider fand ich nirgend Belege zu seiner Arbeit in den Minen oder seinem Fernsehkonsum) und Infos zum deutschen Zenmönch Muho hier oder hier. Über den Yogi Patanjali und seine Yogasutras wurde viel geschrieben, hier findet ihr zum Beispiel eine Neuübersetzung oder hier mehr über die Person.

On this episode of Manga Mavericks, Colton & Lum are joined by David from the Shonen Flop podcast for what is possibly the biggest trial of the century! As they will have to argue why Gakkyu Hotei (aka School Judgment) is one of, if not the worst manga they have ever covered on the show!! Gakkyu Hotei being a series written by Nobuaki Enoki and illustrated by Takeshi Obata (also known as the artist of both Death Note & Bakuman), centered in a world where Japanese grade schools are corrupted to the point where the government creates the School Judgment System! Where elementary school students can take their grievances and discuss them during Classroom Arbitration sessions! Trials for children by children! With the series' protagonist and defense attorney, Abaku Inugami, solving all kinds of cases ranging from who dismembered the classroom pet to figuring out the identity of local snack (NOT DRUG) dealers, all while getting closer to finding out who murdered his old classmates on that fateful day known as the Bloody Classroom Session!! Now you might be saying to yourself, "Huh, that doesn't sound too bad!", but trust us, its not only mostly mediocre, but also contains a lot of weird, creepy choices that Enoki himself is a little too boastful about and proud of. What are those choices, you ask? Enter the court and find out!!

Budai always strolled around the streets, carrying a cloth sack and a torn carpet. The cloth sack was filled with pots, bowls, wooden clogs, fish, rice, vegetables, meat, tiles, rocks, clay, wood, the sadnesses of the world, and all kinds of things. Sometimes, in a crowded place, he would open the sack, empty it onto the carpet, and say, "Have a look, have a look."   Then he would pick the objects up one-by-one in amazement and wonder, asking "What is this called? What is this for? How do you use this?"   The people were dumbfounded.Support the show (https://www.paypal.me/apalmr)

Osho says that laughter is "the very essence of Zen." And though the theme of this series is meditation - watching, remaining alert and aware - as the only way to truth, Osho encourages us to, "be happy and meditation will follow." There is a wonderful chapter on laughter, Hotei the Laughing Buddha, and enlightenment. As Osho says, "This is the whole effort of all the masters: to create a sudden clash of thunder so those who are fast asleep can be awakened."

In Japan the Shichifukujin or Seven Lucky Gods appear in a boat on the first day of the year to impart various kinds of luck on those they deem worthy. Transcript Below.

Transcript: Pre-Intro Intro: It’s January first, early morning, and there you are shivering on a beach, looking out over the ocean at the first sunrise of the New Year.  The sky and water are tinged orange, scarlet and gold. A tiny sliver of sun just visible on the horizon grows. But as it does, there, backlit against the beauty, is something else. A boat. As the sun climbs, the boat is getting bigger, closer.  Until it is so close you can read the sail flapping in the wind. There, splashed in black ink is the character for Baku. Baku, the dream eater. A little jolt of deja vu runs through you. Ahem: episode 65. Oh, look. It’s so close now, you can make out people on the boat. They’re all standing stoic, hair and robes blowing in the wind. They’re getting so close, you can now count seven of them. They’re such a motley crew. Then one of the passengers, the one whose wearing armor and carrying a spear looks in your direction, stretches out his long arm and points at you. Who are these boat people and why are they coming for you? What do they want? Intro: Akemashite Omedetou (明けましておめでとう)! Happy New Year! I hope this first podcast of 2021 finds you healthy and well. Today we’re going to talk about the Seven Lucky Gods. In Japanese, Shichifukujin, literally Seven Lucky Gods. Where Are the Seven Lucky Gods from? They are indeed an varied bunch, coming from India, China, and Japan. A team of lucky gods, each with his or her own colorful story, that while found in artwork all year round, make a special trip down from heaven on January first, to visit for seven days. They’re here to bestow good fortune to those they see fit to have it. Through history they were at one point or another worshipped separately, but in the Muramachi Period they were brought together and are often, but not always, found grouped together. More likely than not, when they’re all hanging out together, they’re on their boat called a takarabune (宝船) or Treasure Boat. I’m going to talk a little bit about each one, but before that, real quick, a little about nationalities. Three of the gods, Benzaiten (弁財天), Bishamonten (毘沙門天), and Daikokuten (大黒天), are originally found in Hinduism, so of Indian descent. Fukurokuju (福禄寿), Hotei (布袋), and Jurojin (寿老人), are from China, coming from both Buddhism and Daoism. And lastly, there is Ebisu (恵比寿), who I did a whole show on back in episode 28. The Leech Boy Who Became a God. A very strange story goes along with him, if you’d like to listen to episode 28. Who are the Seven Lucky Gods? So let’s run through and learn a little about each lucky god. And why not start with Ebisu, the sole Japanese in the bunch? Ebisu (恵比寿)is the god of prosperity and wealth and of having an abundance of food. He’s the patron of fishermen, too. That’s how you can recognize him in the bunch. He usually carries a fishing rod in one hand and a fish in the other. I’ve always like Ebisu because the town where I live, being a fishing town, has a yearly festival dedicated to him in November. It’s quite lively and packed with outdoor stalls selling lucky Ebisu-themed goods for businesses big and small. I see his image a lot. Oh, and he’s also got his own beer named after him. Yebisu beer. So check out that label next time you grab a can. Now to Daikokuten (大黒天), who kind of looks like Ebisu. Squat, funky hat, smiling face. But Daikokuten doesn’t have a fish or rod, instead he carries a big hammer, used to grant wishes, and a bag of treasure. Daikokuten actually originated from the god Shiva in the Hindu tradition. Which you would never imagine looking at him. These days he’s the lucky god of agriculture, rice, cooks, farmers, and bankers. Because bankers need gods, too. You know. You’ll often find him paired with Ebisu when displayed at restaurants or businesses. Moving on. We have Bishamonten (毘沙門天). Remember the fierce-looking god who pointed at you from the boat earlier. The one wearing old fashioned armor and carrying a spear? Well, that is Bishamonten, also from the Hindu tradition. A god of fortune and battles, authority and dignity. He is the protector of those who follow rules and behave. Not only is he carrying a spear, but he also had a tiny pagoda or stupa in his other hand. Next. Benzaiten (弁財天), Benten (弁天), Benten-sama (弁天さま), or Benzaitennyo. Also from Hinduism originally, the only female in the bunch, she comes from the goddess Saraswati. You’ll find her carrying a biwa, stringed, lute-like instrument and a white snake. She’s the patron of artists, writers, dancers, actors, and geisha. Now look over there at the very tall, very old fellow with the long white beard, walking stick, and scroll. This lucky god comes from Chinese Taoism and does resemble an old Taoist sage.  Oh, and on that scroll of his is written all the wisdom of the world. Sometimes you’ll see him with a white stag or maybe cranes or tortoises. He symbolizes longevity and his name is Juroujin (寿老人), and sometimes thought to be the incarnation of the southern pole star, Nankyokusei (南極星). He’s the only lucky god thought to be based on a real person. The god that sometimes confused with Juroujin is Fukurokuju (福禄寿). Also from China, he’s thought to be the reincarnation of the Taoist god Hsuan Wu. He’s cool in that he doesn’t have to eat (I guess the other gods do) and he can raise the dead. You can find him hanging out with a turtle, a crow, or a deer. While also carries a cane and scroll similar to Juroujin, he’s easily identifiable because of his great big, long head; no hat or covering. From him you will procure wisdom, luck, longevity, wealth, and happiness. Lastly on the takarabune is Hotei (布袋) and you might be familiar with him. He’s the image often confused with the Buddha until the day you learn the Buddha wasn’t overweight. Hotei has a big ol’ fat belly and is laughing hysterically. He is the god of contentment and happiness. He’s said to be a guardian of children, diviners, and barmen. He carries a big cloth bag that never empties and can be used to feed the poor and needy.  Next time you see Hotei note his long earlobes. In Japan those are called fukumimi (福耳), or lucky earlobes. Even now if you have long lobes your Japanese friend might tell you, you have fukumimi. You’re lucky! Occasionally you’ll find the long-foreheaded Fukurokuju missing and in his place, Kichijouten. Kichijouten is another goddess who also goes by the name Kisshouten or Kisshoutennyo. There is a story of her being the wife of Vishnu. She is beautiful, happy and fertile You can recognize her by the Nyoihouju gem she’s holding in her hand. An interesting bit of trivia, is that while usually you’ll hear about the Seven Lucky Gods, every once in awhile, you’ll hear about eight. No, it’s not that Fukuokuju AND Kichijouten are both in the gang. Nope. It might be because okame, remember her?, the rosy cheeked plump lady of luck has joined the group. Or perhaps oinari, a fox god, who looks after agriculture, rice, tea, sake, merchants and sword-smiths is hanging out with the other seven. So there you have it, the Seven Lucky Gods and their Treasure Ship. So let’s imagine that Treasure Boat riding in from heaven and the Seven Lucky Gods on board waving at you, tossing handfuls of good luck, longevity, happiness, contentment, business success, plenty of food, beauty, wicked sword-smithing skills or fertility, if that’s what you’re going for. There is something for everyone. Thank you all for listening listening. I hope everyone of you have a truly wonderful 2021. I’ve still got loads of topics for the show, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to hear ideas from you. If there is something you’d like me to talk about or look into, please let me know. I can’t promise, but this year I’m going to try and work patrons and listeners ideas in as episodes. Oh, remember in November or thereabouts, I mentioned I had a little goal to get 200 patrons by the end of the year? Well, I did it. I mean, I didn’t do it. You did it. So an extra big thank you for that. And finally, don’t forget to be on the lookout for my new other show: “The Soothing Stories Podcast”, which will be me reading some interesting classic stories with chill sound and music. The sole purpose being to escape the woes of the day for a little while. The first episode will launch on January 27th or 28th depending on where you are in the world. I’ll let you know more next time we talk and of course on social media. As they say in Japan: Kotoshi mo yoroshiku onegaishimasu (今年もよろしくお願いします) which translates into something like, I hope to continue our good relationship this year. Thanks again, and I’ll talk to you again in two weeks. Bye bye.

The lecture will provide an introduction and overview into Japanese woodblock prints from the 17th to 19th century, commonly called ukiyo-e. Arguably the most recognizable of all Japanese art forms, ukiyo-e have spread over the world and become very popular outside of Japan. Works like Hokusai's Great Wave, large head beauties by Utamaro, and striking actors by Sharaku, were all produced with the same techniques, as were hundreds of thousands of other designs. At first the printing was done off a single woodblock until color printing encompassing several blocks was invented in the second half of the 18th century. The production process, for which the publishers played a crucial role, will be addressed as well as print collecting then and now. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: Dr. Andreas Marks is the Head of the Japanese and Korean Art Department and Director of the Clark Center at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. From 2008 to 2013 he was the Director and Chief Curator of the Clark Center for Japanese Art and Culture in California. Before coming to the U.S., he was the Managing Director of an international exhibition and fair organizer based in Germany with branches in Calif., the U.K., Australia, and China. He has a master's degree in East Asian Art History from the University of Bonn, and a Ph.D. from Leiden University in the Netherlands. Dr. Marks has curated and co-curated 15 exhibitions on various aspects of Japanese art including paintings, prints, ceramics, weaponry, as well as works of bamboo. The special exhibition "The Audacious Eye: Japanese Art from the Clark Collections" (Oct. 6, 2013 – Jan. 12, 2014) that he curated, showing over 100 works from the 8th century until 2012, recently opened at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.

MAITREYA is said to be the future Buddha, the successor to the historic Śākyamuni Buddha. It's said that his 'coming' which will happen in a few thousand (or perhaps millions) of years. In the meantime, he awaits his return, residing in Tuṣita Heaven. Yes, there are some elements to Maitreya rather like the 'Second Coming' of Jesus. Maitreya is taken by some as something like a Buddhist Messiah. He is often seen seated in a pose somewhat reminiscent of Rodan's "THE THINKER", but with softer shape and expression, sometimes tranquil and sometimes crying, contemplating the suffering of sentient beings. In fact, Maitreya's name may be derived from the Sanskrit word Maitri (Metta in Pali), 'loving-kindness'. Sometimes he is seen in this form ... ... perhaps from after he let himself go.   However, the origins of this popular "Laughing Buddha" are actually found a figure called Hotei from China, a jolly fat monk who happened to be a devotee of Maitreya, and whose image became mixed into the Maitreya legend over time. In any event, even if not really "Maitreya", the image is very popular in Chinese Buddhist temples ... and Chinese restaurants. One popular belief is that if one rubs his fat belly on the 1st day of the Lunar Year, it will bring forth wealth, good luck and prosperity. (In my case, I typically think of the Laughing Buddha when I break my diet ... often at a Chinese restaurant.) Maitreya was frequently taken as a cult symbol driving peasant rebellions and other mass movements for social change or revolution in China in centuries past. In so many ways, Maitreya is simply a symbol of future hope and change. Today’s Sit-A-Long video follows at this link.
