Yasukuni Shrine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yasukuni Shrine (靖国神社 or 靖國神社 Yasukuni Jinja) is a Shinto shrine located in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan. It is dedicated to those who died on behalf of the Empire of Japan. It lists the names of over 2,466,000 enshrined men, women and children.
It also houses one of the few Japanese war museums dedicated to World War II. The shrine is not only for soldiers but for anyone who died on behalf of the Emperor of Japan. As such there are relief workers, factory workers, citizens and those not of Japanese ethnicity such as Taiwanese and Koreans who served Japan. There are also commemorative statues to mothers and animals who perished in the war. Controversy arose over its enshrinement of multiple war criminals from World War II. Regardless the inclusion of their names causes political tension particularly with China who argues that it is evidence Japan denies any wrong doing during World War II. Supporters have argued that rejecting their names for enshrinement would remove them from the Empire of Japan's service, thus denying they existed or committed any crimes on behalf of the Emperor. Some far-left politicians see the shrine as a symbol of Japanese imperialism, while some far-right politicians consider the shrine a symbol of patriotism.
Yasukuni is a shrine to house the actual souls of the dead as kami, or spirits/souls as loosely defined in English. This activity is strictly a religious matter since the separation of State Shinto and the Japanese government in 1945. The priesthood at the shrine has complete religious autonomy to decide for whom and how enshrinement may occur. They believe that enshrinement is permanent and irreversible. According to Shinto beliefs, by enshrining kami, Yasukuni Shrine provides a permanent residence for the spirits of those who have fought on behalf of the Emperor. Yasukuni has all enshrined kami occupying the same single seat. The shrine is dedicated to give peace and rest to all those enshrined there. It was the only place to which the Emperor of Japan bowed.

STORYLINE:
Former Taiwanese president Lee Teng-hui prayed for his elder brother at a Tokyo war shrine on Thursday, a move that could upset China which vilifies the site as a symbol of Japan's militaristic past.
Lee's brother is enshrined at the Yasukuni Shrine, which deifies two and a half million (m) war dead, including Japanese World War II leaders executed for their war crimes, along with tens of thousands of Koreans and Taiwanese drafted into Japanese military during Japan's colonial rule.
Lee entered Yasukuni's inner hall and prayed, a shrine spokesman said on condition of anonymity by protocol, but he refused to provide any other details.
The former president arrived in Japan last week for an 11-day cultural visit.
The 84-year-old has been a strong critic of Beijing, which claims sovereignty over self-ruled Taiwan more than five decades after the island split from the mainland during a civil war.
On Wednesday, China slammed Lee for using his visit to push for Taiwanese independence and for trying to undermine China-Japan relations.
China in late May expressed strong dissatisfaction toward Japan for allowing Lee's visit.
Japan maintains official diplomatic relations with Beijing, but not with Taiwan.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has stressed that Lee's visit is private and that he did not expect it to hurt Tokyo's relations with Beijing.
The Yasukuni Shrine is a major source of contention between China and Japan, along with disputes over exploration of underwater gas and
interpretations of wartime history.
Former Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's six visits to Yasukuni during his 2001-2006 leadership enraged China and South
Korea, the two main victims of Japanese aggression in the first half of the 20th century, prompting them to reject summits with Koizumi.

Yasukuni Shrine on The Day of The End of War （靖国神社 終戦の日）

Currently, its Symbolic Registry of Divinities lists the names of over 2,466,000 enshrined men and women whose lives were dedicated to the service of Imperial Japan, particularly to those killed in wartime.

Adeyto LIVE ???? YASUKUNI SHRINE SAKURA Cherry blossoms TOKYO
Just on the other side of the boulevard by Chidorigafuchi Imperial Palace Tokyo with their stunning Cherry blossoms and boats on the pond lake is the controversial and world famous Yasukuni Shrine: When the Emperor Meiji visited Tokyo Shokonsha for the first time on January 27 in 1874, he composed a poem; I assure those of you who fought and died for your country that your names will live forever at this shrine in Musashino. As can be seen in this poem, Yasukuni Shrine was established to commemorate and honor the achievement of those who dedicated their precious lives for their country. The name Yasukuni, given by the Emperor Meiji represents wishes for preserving peace of the nation.
Currently, more than 2,466,000 divinities are enshrined here at Yasukuni Shrine. These are souls of men who made ultimate sacrifice for their nation since 1853 during national crisis such as the Boshin War, the Seinan War, the Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese wars, World War I, the Manchurian Incident, the China Incident and the Greater East Asian War (World War II). These people, regardless of their rank or social standing, are considered to be completely equal and worshipped as venerable divinities of Yasukuni.
Japanese people believe that their respect to and awe of the deceased is best expressed by treating the dead in the same manner as they were alive. Hence, at Yasukuni Shrine, rituals to offer meals and to dedicate words of appreciation to the dead are repeated every day. And, twice every year－in the spring and autumn－major rituals are conducted, on which occasion offerings from His Majesty the Emperor are dedicated to them, and also attended by members of the imperial family.
Thus, Yasukuni Shrine has deep relationship with the Japanese imperial family. Also, five million people visit the shrine every year since it is known as a central institution for commemorating those who died in wars.
