Francis Xavier Anecdote




Question from the Japanese who was troubled with Xavier


Francis Xavier propagated it in each place of Japan, but many Japanese have asked him.

"Why did the teaching that was hard to be like it not come to Japan so far?"

And "how is the ancestor of us who did not hear the teaching that I am thankful for now where?"

In other words what happens to the dead ancestors though oneself are baptized and may be saved without being baptized?

After all do you fall into the hell?

The then Japanese asked Xavier such a question.

In Christianity, Xavier answered so originally because all the people who were not baptized were hell.

Then a Japanese pursues it.

"God whom you believe in is very merciless, and are you not incompetent?"

If it is the Almighty God, you may save my ancestors

Xavier was troubled and wrote it in the letter as follows.

When "a Japanese has high culture standard and is not a very excellent propagator, the propagation of Japan will have a hard time"

There did not seem to be the human being who asked then China and Korea and Indochina such a question.

Mitsunari Ishida Anecdote3




Mitsunari employ Sakon Shima in a high salary

It is Sakon Shima who is a chief vassal of Mitsunari, but there is a famous anecdote even if this Court Security Office proves right if I serve Mitsunari.

As for this, Mitsunari is said to be a story when he had main increase 40,000 stones of the Mizuguchi Castle.
 (there are various opinions about Mitsunari having had really become the Mizuguchi lord of a castle.)

Hideyoshi called Mitsunari and asked him.

"I increased salaries, but did you increase the retainers like how many people this time?"

Mitsunari answered in this way.

"It is only one."

Ridiculous Hideyoshi heard it.

"On earth whom did you make a retainer?"

Mitsunari answered.

"It is Sakon Shima."

Hideyoshi said in wonder.

"Sakon Shima is a celebrity of the world.

It is not a person serving the person of the scanty salary like a master.

Did you employ him with higher how much salary?"

Mitsunari answered.

"I employed Sakon with half 20,000 stones of my salary high 40,000 stone."

Hideyoshi who heard this said while laughing.

"I have not heard that a salary was the only same as a subordinate.

However, otherwise the person like the Court Security Office will not serve Mitsunari."

Of course there are various opinions whether this anecdote is true as expected.

It is and cannot support the first questionable point from positive historical materials about this whether Mitsunari has really become the Mizuguchi lord of a castle for the moment.

There are various opinions about the time when Sakon Shima served Mitsunari.

In the meantime, it will be sure that Mitsunari employed Sakon Shima in a high salary surprising people.

Mitsunari Ishida Anecdote2




Activity in the Shizugatake.

Mitsunari Ishida seems to have an elite and a bright person pale for some reason, the image of the schemer.

Of course the real images are different, but it is apt to be considered that it is the person who is not good at much bravery.

However, it is left for the record in the Shizugatake to have done the activity that Mitsunari breaks such an image.

At first Kiyomasa Kato, Masanori Fukushima and others float, but, speaking of activity in the Shizugatake, there is the record that played an active part that Mitsunari is not inferior to this time, them in.

The running fight of the Shizugatake was a considerable all-out war for Hideyoshi.

It is thought that Mitsunari played a daring role in that.

Mitsunari has that I dealt with information gathering for a record by the fight of the Shizugatake and, as for his special feature, it is thought even if there was it here.

In any case Mitsunari is good at strategic eyes, and it is thought that the nature as the military commander was good unlike the image like the civil officer.

For example, even Oshi Castle attack, a Korean position shows definite strategic eyes.

Mitsunari Ishida Anecdote1




Tea - Mitsunari, Hideyoshi of a kind of ceremony at a temple, episode of the encounter.

It is a famous anecdote of Mitsunari Ishida.

In front of Shiga, Nagahama Station, there is the image of Mitsunari Ishida and Hideyoshi Toyotomi in connection with this a kind of ceremony at a temple's banquet tea, too.

One day Hideyoshi who became important of the Nagahama Castle did falconry in possessing it.

Hideyoshi learned the return, the dehydration of the throat and he dropped in at a certain temple and required tea.

First the page in a temple who dealt made rather lukewarm tea for one serving from green powder in a large bowl and took it out.

After having drunk it up at a stretch, dry Hideyoshi of the throat required it another one cup.

The page took out the tea which he made slightly rather hot to a slightly smallish porcelain bowl next.

After wishing, Hideyoshi started the tea which he made to a small-sized porcelain bowl hot another one cup this time for trial.

The page looked at the state of the person and started it in the state that the person wanted.

Hideyoshi made interest for the consideration of the page and he was with the page in a castle and assumed it a return retainer.

It succeeded in life afterwards, and this page became one of the five magistrates in charge of the administration of state affairs, Mitsunari Ishida.

At first the page fully starts the lukewarm tea which it is easy to drink to the dry partner of the throat and has you taste hot tea slowly after thirst was cured.

This anecdote is talked about as an example of the attention widely.

It is argued slightly with "a certain temple" which became the stage of a kind of ceremony at a court noble's banquet tea.

Kanonji of Ohara and a Lotus sutra temple of Furuhashi are convincing opinions, and "the well of the Mitsunari making tea" is in Kanonji for the moment.

Is this anecdote only true?

It has a question very much.

It is all the kind of the graceless hand of Edo period, and the reliability has few historical materials that an anecdote appears in.

This anecdote is like the story of Mitsunari many other that was made during the Edo period , there is also a theory that has been created in demean the boy of the temple born of Samsung .
