Zen Waterfall Meditation in the Mountains of Tokyo - Buddhism and Shintoism cold water challenge
Culture time in Japan! I went with my friends Kota and Kawara to the mountains near Tokyo for a very special Zen meditation practice. We went to the Kuzuryuno Falls near Okutama to meditate in ice cold mountain water under a waterfall!
The practice of going into an ice cold waterfall in the mountains has Buddhist and Shinto roots and combines the spirituality of both. First the endurance and challenging yourself part of Buddhism, and then the nature and connecting to the gods around you by entering their habitat.
It is said that you can purify yourself and your soul with this waterfall meditation and become a new person through it. Also, the Shintoism gods around you, in every little thing, might hear your wishes and grant them to you, if you believe hard enough.
Now, whatever you believe, or don't believe. It is a wonderful and unique experience that I would recommend for everyone who was some time in and around Tokyo and wants to experience something new and different.
It is a challenge for yourself and eye opening, even if just at the moment when you are entering the cold water.
If you decide to participate, please follow the orders of the monk and be respectful at all times. Be aware that you will have to wear the specially provided clothes as seen in the video, although women can wear swimwear under their provided garments.
The price is 5.000 Yen for men and 5.500 Yen for women, due to the additional provided garments.
From my understanding, this waterfall practice can be done year-round, so why not try doing the waterfall meditation in the winter for some extra challenge?

CNN's Talk Asia Program- Bulgarian Sumo Wrestler, Kotoōshū Katsunori (琴欧洲 勝紀, 1/3
Bulgarian Sumo Wrestler, Kotoōshū Katsunori is featured on CNN's Talk Asia Program which aired in Japan in 2006.
In this segment, he talks about the transformation from a Bulgarian teenager to a sumo wrestler in Japan. Initially, the idea to become a sumo wrestler in Bulgaria was as a joke but was chosen because in Sumo you can eat as much as you want but in Wrestling, you have to control your diet to stay within your weight category. Then, he explains how difficult it was when he first arrived in Japan and how he had to adapt to the environment. He then talks about the devotion of Japanese fans, setting goals and how achieving the second tier in four years was not by luck but part of his goal. He also discusses his win against the Grand Champion in Fukuoka which guaranteed his right to become a member of the second tier.

Finding Zen: Uncovering Meaning in Art & Artifacts
Finding Zen: Uncovering Meaning in Art & Artifacts
How much do you really know about Zen? There is much more to the practice and philosophy of Japan's most famed religious tradition than meets the eye. The rich artistic tradition of Zen, as well as everyday objects like staffs, robes and rags, provides clues to the complex thought underlying a tradition known for its simplicity. Dig beneath the stereotypes and explore the profound ways in which art and artifacts can illuminate Zen thought with specialists Pamela D. Winfield and Steven Heine, co-editors of Zen and Material Culture. Moderated by award-winning novelist, filmmaker, and Zen Buddhist priest Ruth Ozeki. Followed by a reception.

The bulgarian giant Kotoōshū defeated the great champion yokozuna Asashōryū
Bulgarians are lions
Birth name: Kaloyan Stefanov Mahlyanov
Date of birth: February 19, 1983
Height: 2.04 m (6 ft 8 in)
Weight: 159 kg (342 lb)
Record: 329-178-14
Debut: November, 2002
Special Prizes Outstanding Performance (2), Fighting Spirit (3).
Kotoōshū Katsunori - (born February 19, 1983 as Kaloyan Stefanov Mahlyanov, Bulgarian: Калоян Стефанов Махлянов, in Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria) is a professional sumo wrestler or rikishi. He is currently ranked as an ōzeki or 'champion', the second-highest level in the sumo ranking system behind only yokozuna. Popular with the Japanese public because of his good looks, he has been called the David Beckham of Sumo and the Prince of Sumo, although he expressed displeasure with the former moniker. On May 24, 2008, Kotooshu made history by becoming the first European sumo wrestler to win an Emperor's Cup.
His name is derived from his place of origin — koto, shared by all wrestlers at his stable, and ōshū, meaning Europe. Following the September 2006 tournament, he changed one of the characters in his ring name, although the pronunciation, shū, is the same for both.
Fighting style:
Kotoōshū is a tall and rather light rikishi at 203 cm (6 feet, 8 inches) and 152 kg (334 pounds). In comparison, former yokozuna (grand champion) Akebono, at the same height, weighed 235 kg (517 pounds) at his peak. Yokozuna Asashōryū is about the same weight, but is only 184 cm in height. Kotoōshū primarily relies on so-called 'belt-throws' to win his sumo bouts. Recently he has typically preferred to take a hidari-yotsu (left-hand inside grip) on his opponent's mawashi (the belt that is fixed around the wrestler's waist), although he is right-handed and his overall profile still shows him preferring migi-yotsu (right-hand inside grip). He uses his long arms and quick footwork to counteract his high center of gravity and relatively light weight.
Kotoōshū has remarked that his tournament victory was partially due to a weight gain of five kilos which enabled him to be sturdier against his opponents.
In popular culture:
* He is noted for being a fan of the singer Ayaya, so much so that it prompted a commercial where they appear together (although a surprised Kotoōshū found out the day of filming that their parts were to be digitally melded). He often appears in TV commercials of yogurt products. This is because a Japanese dairy company, Meiji Dairies Corporation, sells a series of yogurt products under the name of Bulgaria Yogurt.
* He was chosen as a special judge for the 56th edition of Japan's annual Kouhaku Utagassen on 31 December 2005.
* He was made the Goodwill Ambassador to Japan by the European Union in April 2006.
