Secret Buddhist Temple Drinking: Al-Kee-Hol

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
In this episode of Al-Kee-Hol, our host Yuka and her friend Cindee meet up with some priests in Kyoto, Japan and get closer to the gods-through drinking. Their first stop is to a Shinto shrine, where they learn about the relationship between booze and the gods and how drinking sake can mean receiving holy power. They then do some meditating at a Buddhist temple and discover the secret bar that lies within it. (Do you know that there's temple slang for liquor) The final stop is Bozu Monk Bar, where a monk serves the ladies drinks and even make them an Old Fashioned. As it turns out, bars and temples aren-t so different after all

sorry to say, but being completely logical, an actual legit God that we as humans remember doesn't exist. What we know as gods are merely past -humans- who lived before us who created the guidelines and understanding of what constitutes good and bad and general life lessons. Once we are gone, the next species that follows humans will look at us as -gods- and the bad as -demons-.

Distilled alcohol was known in Latin as aqua vitae (-water of life-. --Whisky is an Anglicization of the Scottish Gaelic word uisce / uisge, meaning water. --This was translated to Scottish Gaelic - uisge beatha - or -water of life- and not -source of life- as our friendly Buddhist bartender thinks. -Yes, I am a pedantic prick, but facts are facts kids: )

-Monks, drinking intoxicants, if done frequently or habitually, leads to rebirth in hell, rebirth as an animal or as a hungry ghost. At the very least, the result of this evil deed when born as a human being is that one becomes a mad person. - source, www. aimwell. org/intoxicants. html#n1

I think this is the coolest if not one of the coolest things I've seen about Japanese culture. The thought of relaxing in a garden, having a drink with a monk, talking about life and such just puts a big smile on my face. I'm definitely visiting these places in the future

this was great! I always find it so damn awesome when japanese people explain their life choices, it has such depth and focus. It's nice to know there's a place in this world where searching for specific answers on questions is actually a way of life.
