For research purposes I need to know if medieval (1600's and earlier) Japanese Buddhists practiced Martial arts as part of their religious beliefs, and if so, which martial arts those were. Thank you.

Depends on what you mean by Buddhist. If its ordinary buddhist people, then ordinary people may have different types of martial arts.

If you're talking about Buddhist institutions like temples/monasteries, then there's certain that they teach self-defense as basic training. What type depends on who's teaching or heading the temple/monastery.

Elite samurais of the time would study Zen Buddhism as well to hone their concentration and ethics system. Once they retire, some of them go on and join temples/monasteries. Those ex-samurais would sometimes teach their swordsmanship, spearsmanship, archery, etc. if they desired.

>>2709126
So if I was to find out what martial arts the buddhist's were taught I would have to know who was the head of these temples and then figure out what those specific people taught?

Considering most japanese people were mahayana buddhists I'd say everything

He also said that any alliance who's purpose was not solely to wage war was pointless.
He despised them but needed to widen the front and introduce more manpower and guns against the USSR. Don't delude yourself into thinking that it would have been a lasting alliance.

Depends on what they're doing obviously.

They both have their place. If I had to pick one and only one to give my imaginary medieval troops, it would be crossbows.

>>2708588
Crossbow being great for simply being able to store your shot, but the longbow just has better range, and hundreds of longbowmen being absolutely terrifying.

What made middle eastern pagan or heretical groups such as the Yazidis and Alawites survive for so much longer and much more successfully than pagan and heretical groups in Europe? It can't just have been mountains since that didn't work for the Cathars.

They had complex methods of hiding their beliefs and generally cooperated with Muslim rulers. Occasionally a Sultan would get the religious fervor bug and would take heads but even then it was a front for political reasons most of the time.
