Im 2 months late but someone had to. Keep on trucking brother. I know nothing of your struggle but there is within you strenght to keep going. It was never gonna be easy and yet here you stand tall and proud. Safe travels
To the person reading this, even though we don't know each other and may never meet, I want to wish you all the best in life. Remember to love yourself and never stop doing so. You're a beautiful human being, and the world wouldn't be the samne without you. You mean so much to so many people, Enjoy your journey and keep your head up!
Music is like the Japanese sword you can discover someones soul if you are listening or looking close enough... You will never be alone, the edge is just part of something much bigger that you could possibly imagine. Life on every breath...on every cup of tea, on every touch, on every sunrise, on the warmth of the Sun in your skin, on your tears, on your laugh... Live like a warrior with honor, love like simply deeply madly...you are not alone
Really touching... very touching... when I listened to this music and watched the movie as well, I was no longer the same as before... there is a lot of hope
To you..who is listening to this song thank you for opening your heart, your mind and your soul to something much more complex than a melody or just a moment to relax... Life is not easy, it was not meant to be easy...love, honor, devotion, to do the right thing were never easy or simple concepts. That a song could inspire so much on so many different people tells you that you are not alone, that we are the ones that relate to each other even without composing such a master piece we relate to each other across the Universe.
You deserve more than Verdi's reply to your beautiful comment... i loved this track so much, it said so much to me I had to buy the film and watch it just to see what inspired such a beautiful sound to be produced! I'm not really one for fighting but the film was so much more than combat it was really a beautiful spiritual film with a perfect message much like your comment, we are all connected on a deeper level, and we should honour each other far more than we do. Namastè
What a beautiful melody...Ennio Morricone, Hans Zimmer and John Williams these people will never be replaced.. I am so happy that i am part of this world and got a chance to listen to this music
yes. you are right. i feel me also lucky to be a part of this aera. hans zimmer harald klose.stef jablonski. john williams and others like :) status quo this lizzy dire straits. heart .and many others:
I once loved a woman with every atom of my being....body......and........soul. Forces beyond my imagining separated us. I am an old man now but I can never forget the connection we had so long ago. This piece delivers me straight into her arms again....
Just lost the first love of my life - afflicted with a severe neurological disorder she took her own life. We were going to built a life and family together. I can't express the weight of grief. Sometimes I think I can feel her in the wind and fauna. May she be at peace. May we take the enriching experiences they granted us and use them for the betterment of humanity.
Don`t forget, we are trinity : Body, Spirit, Soul. Is like a computer : Hardware, Energy, Software - both, the hardware & software are depending on the energy. The same happen with our life. Our body and soul lives because we have the spirit of life in us. There is a say : "That's the spirit!" Our Creator, created us after His own image. God is Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), so are we (trinity: Body, Spirit, Soul). When someone dies, actually his spirit quenched. The body is just the matter, the Spirit is our life and the Soul is our being. Both of them are strictly connected with the body. After this short life passes, there is eternal life, the origin of our Soul. We live in this natural world, but we forget that we are supranatural beings. That's why, the human being is superior than other beings. Inside us there is an eternity (the Soul). We have the thought of a everlasting life, because we are created by an Everlasting God who putted that thought in our consciousness. Because we are created by His own image, we are able to love with an eternal love. You said you are old now, and your love did not fade. This is because you are more than a creature of God. You actually a piece of God's image, as a human being. You are able to love and think freely. That's why you are responsible in front of the Creator of the life you choose to live : with faith in Him and in unbelief away from Him. Every action has a consequence. The consequence of living away from God is eternal.
The violin sound 3:56 in this piece has so much pain, its so beautiful and sad at the same time. It amazes me how music as an art can carry so much emotion.
“And so the days of the Samurai had ended. Nations, like men, it is sometimes said, have their own destiny. As for the American Captain, no one knows what became of him. Some say that he died of his wounds. Others, that he returned to his own country. But I like to think he may have at last found some small measure of peace, that we all seek, and few of us ever find.” - Simon Graham
2 weeks ago my mum collapsed in my arms suddenly, I held her hand while we were waiting for the ambulance, I told her that I loved her so much and asked her to stay with me, she told me that she loved me to and then passed away. All I do everyday is play this beautiful piece of music, tears running down my face, I have so many regrets about the many things I promised that we would do and never did, I hope that she can forgive me. Love you and miss you mum with all my heart, at last you and Dad are together.
@@maryanaflorence526 These were things my mum wanted to do and without her it would not be the same. But the few precious hours we spent together on Wednesday afternoons I have decided to give to volunteer work. Mum spent 25 years nursing my dad with Parkinson's disease without any help until the last two years, she was truly an angel and if I can use a few hours a week to help someone else then hopefully one day I may make to heaven to be with her.
I conquered myself...and my battles didn't stop. Even though I have won the war within myself, I still live in the world full of evil. The devil is still trying his deceitful tactics to mess with me. People who say devil doesn't exist are fooling themselves. They're like sheep unaware of the danger. All glory be to God and God alone. Jesus is his Son and the way to God is through the cross (suffering). Give yourself up to Jesus and he won't give you more at a time then you can take, or leave it up to Satan and he'll leave you alone as long as you serve him, but try to break free and he'll use every single ounce of suffering to subdue you and break you or even kill you if you've given him that much control over yourself by sinning.
I was here in 2018 and 2019, I'm here in 2020 as well, I'll also come in 2021, and so on. Very heart touching music ever made, lot's of love from INDIA Zimmer brother 🌷🇮🇳
For me the most beautiful composition that has ever been written. Hans Zimmer's masterpiece, which expresses so much in a Melody ..... pain, belief, hope, sense of honor ..... every time I hear it I could cry, and yet I don't know which feeling predominates that it triggers .. ...
at the 3 of september i put my father to rest..he was carried out of the church to this song, though he was a white scandinavian he was a Samurai at heart. And this score.. re-presents him in both good and bad..i miss you dad..may you find peace in samurai valhalla.

Japanese people truly have an amazing culture and are being an advanced society in many aspects of life. I admire them for all the honor and courage shown throughout their history. Among other things they realized that the true meaning of personal wealth lies in simplicity and gratefulness, in understanding your purpose/role in life and accepting it responsibly and self confidently. Victory is always an option but participating in the challenge and making honest efforts is what really matters. Western mentality is to pursue perfections of things, jobs, ourselves as the only way to become important or appealing to others and material wealth plays a major role in defining us or giving "weight" to our deeds. That concept is based on superficial, artificial and rarely satisfying ideas with prejudices or stereotypes being major "illnesses" in our society (capitalism). True perfection is already around us and we just have to preserve it
Lets not forgot that the japanese, as a culture, strive for perfection to the point where men are dropping dead from heart attacks in the office. This is not an epidemic, but the fact that it happens says enough I think. Also if you are implying capitalism is so toxic, socialism is no better of an answer to the ailments of our society.
Well that was traditional Japanese culture not so much nowadays lol. And if you are talking about the bushido spirit that was long gone. Japan and young people in particular has a much more liberal view. Basically the whole world is turning left.
Öyle sıradan bir gece, yalnız hissettiğim. İçimden buraya yazmak geliyor olur da biri buralara canı sıkkınken uğrar ve kendine yakın birini görmek ister diye. Ne var ne yok bırakıp zamanın ilerleyişini hissedecek şekilde yavaş yaşamak istiyorum hayatı. Her gece inzivaya çekilip, yıldızları izlemek, şiirler yazmak istiyorum. Şehrin stresinden, yaşadığını bile unutturmasından öyle nefret ediyorum ki... Sessiz, huzurlu bir dağda veya yaylada, iyi niyetli ve anlayışlı insanlarla komşu olarak yaşamak istiyorum. Sevdiğim kadının kollarında yargılanmadan uyanabilmek istiyorum toplum tarafından. Hayatta o kadar güzel şey varken ve bizim ömrümüz bu kadar kısayken insanların ne giydiğine, içtiğine, yaşadığına karışan insanları anlamıyorum hiç. 4.5 milyar yıllık dünyada 70 yıl kalacaksın alt tarafı neden kendi hayatına odaklanmıyorsun ki. Belki bir gün yazmaya devam ederim buradan, kendine iyi bak okuyucu.
Im old now, married, kids and an amazing wife...but somehow this song brought back memories of one girl from when i was in my early 20's...i will never forget how much in love we were, how inseperable...i loved her with every breath i had and would walk to the ends of this earth just to see her one last time...you see she was killed on a flight to see her familiy half way across the world, lord how broken i was,i felt my heart shatter and almost took my own life due to the unbearable pain i felt for years to follow...but as time passed i managed to cope, not fully recover but content with the fact she is looking down on me smiling...how i wish i could have known what was going to happen and had kept her back for one more day,maybe then we would have had a life together, just maybe...this piece brought many tears to my eyes and it hurts so much to remember, my wife fully understands and does her best to comfort me and im sorry for the burden i put on her somtimes, but i have never fully recovered even after all these decades my heart still mourns.
A friend of mine had similar experience (not an accident, but cancer) , and I advised him to visit her grave and make peace. Said whatever he wanted to say to her, to forgive her for leaving him behind and earlier, to forgive himself for not being with her on her last days.. Up until I told him that, he never made effort to visit her family and grave. When he finally did and he told me he felt better..he finally said his goodbye properly and made peace. Coping is not the same with making peace
My dad is still unconscious in ventilater after the liver surgery (a tomour is removed from the liver ). He is 63 years old . He is very strong , healthy and hardworking. He is such a strong man and I have seen him crying only one time when his mother passed away . Before getting ready for the surgery , he was tensed .After 6 hours of surgery now iam waiting outside the ICU. I wonder , what would be passing through his mind . May be he is having nice time with the loved ones .I believe in God almighty and I wish him a speedy recovery and he will come back as the strongest person I ever knew .
Mio padre mi fece vedere il film da piccolo e questa canzone sin dal primo momento mi diede i brividi, a distanza di 22 anni ancora continua a darmeli, mi suscita ricordi di quando ero piccolo e allo stesso tempo mi rattrista e mi fa riflettere su me stesso, la vita è I valori di essa stessa. ARTE
I am so grateful that I feel emotions. Wowwww think about it for a second: actually don't think, just feel. Close your eyes and feel the chills. This is called Human being. Thank you for this beautiful gift.
When I was a boy, I had a fear of spiders. I was told they felt no emotion, that their hearts never beat, but I know the truth. At the moment of the kill, they are never more alive.
My best friend died last week, and ever since I got back I haven't been able to stop listening to this song, because it reminded me of him; the way in which he wanted to live, but felt that he couldn't. Ultimately, he chose to die, feeling as though he had failed us, but any and all of the people who knew him couldn't help but feel that they failed him. He was a true kindred spirit, a brother, and one that I shall always love, and cherish the time spent with until the end of my days. Never lock your demons in the closet, and never forget that for how many people who end up dying, there are still those who choose to do so as well.
What I appreciate about composers such as Hans Zimmer is that he captures more than a moment. Like many of the comments, he captures the memories, the feelings, and the things which shaped people. Everything moves so fast now these days it hardly seems anyone can or cares to reflect. I am grateful for his body of work and the people who respond to it. Such a beautiful confirmation these times will never be forgotten.
Spring, 1877. This marks the longest I've stayed in one place since I left the farm at 17. There is so much here I will never understand. I've never been a church going man, and what I've seen on the field of battle has led me to question God's purpose. But there is indeed something spiritual in this place. And though it may forever be obscure to me, I cannot but be aware of its power. I do know that it is here that I've known my first untroubled sleep in many years. -Nathan Algren
A piece of art by the music maestro which deeply connects to our emotion. I use to get shattered & at the same time feel everything beautiful whenever I listen to this. A soulful composition..
I have had very turbulent years, gone through a divorce from a woman I once loved deeply and with every inch of my soul. Yet tonight I had one of the best nights of my life, one of the very first things I made before going to sleep is come and listen to this wonderful piece of art, to help me remember this day forever.
Bushido 1. Justice or Rectitude (義 gi) This is all about making sure that we have the right way when we make a decision. That we have the power to make a decision quickly. It is about making sure that we do not become indecisive and that our decisions are made and based on the right reasons. 2. Courage (勇 yū) This is about making sure that what we do is right and that we have the courage to do the right thing and not just what people think we should do. If we are raised in a particular way, we think in a way that we belief in. this is about making sure we do what we believe in and have the courage to do so. 3. Benevolence or Mercy (仁 jin) As a warrior, the Samurai have the power to kill. However, benevolence is about making sure that you are balanced in how you think. It is about making sure that you also have sympathy and mercy at the right time. For the Samurai it was about making sure you fought for the right reason and that if you had to kill someone, you did it for the right reason and your belief but that you also make sure that if there was no need to kill you would have mercy and be sympathetic. 4. Respect (禮 rei) It is important that in everything they believe, they must have respect and be polite in everything. The way they live their life meant they must be respectful of their elders, they must respect life, respect others beliefs. 5. Honesty (誠 makoto) Honesty was very important, as they believe that being honest in everything you do gives you respect and means you can be trusted. 6. Honour (名誉 meiyo) To live and die with honor was very important to the Samurai. Everything they did was honorable which meant they did everything in what they believed with honor. 7. Loyalty (忠義 chūgi) Loyalty was probably one of the very important parts of what they did. They treated each other like family and would do everything within their power to protect and help their samurai warriors. Loyalty was important because this means they can trust their warriors and know they would be loyal to whatever they needed to do and not worry about loosing their respect.
I am the guy with the 2222nd comment and it's an honor to join my role to this track. Espacially the part from 1:11 - 1:41 is getting me every time. It's a part that shows me my deep past, where I came from, but also the way in front of me. It really tells us the beauty in life in its every little detail. May everyone of you be blessed my brothers and sisters.
Still in 2019.. I think over 50 k (50000) views are mine.. this one is best music ever, made by my favorite music composer Hans Zimmer.. lot's of love from India.. you're truly awesome.. love you brother..
My friend Adam said in Spanish.."This is music to live by." I have to agree, I make music, part of my life. I can listen to this a hundred times and it's still beautiful as if I listen for the first time. May I say it's part of worship to my Creator.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
@@jokohavy2861 Behold, the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the World! The man who spoke these words is not just a mere man but also God in the flesh. He has the name above every name, the name of Jesus. And he commands men everywhere to repent of their sins and believe that He is Lord. Salvation is found in no one else!
I lived in Japan for ten years, and was in Tokyo last week. It is a most extraordinary culture. The highest civilization on this Earth. This music, with the movie, shows exactly what I experienced in the ten years I lived there. Thank you for reminding me. Those ten years within that culture changed me forever.
Actually, there are not that many. But what is notable is that the number of homicides in Japan per hundred thousand is zero, whereas in the US, it is around 37. You see, in Japan, other people are considered important. Perhaps more important than self. But really, the suicide rates and the homicide rates today are related to the mind altering drugs given to the citizens by the big pharma companies and how much they are pushed in on school children. Plus these deaths are related to the social customs. In Japan it has had the culture that loss of honor can be resolved by sepuku - taking ones own life. In a culture where one is thought to have lived, life after life, the loss of one's own life is not so great. In the west, we have a different philosophy whereby we blame others for our own misfortune and our culture is to go and kill for revenge for our loss of honour. We get whole armies going to non western countries killing whole populations in the name of helping them. So it is no wonder the west is highest in homicides.
SireN Japanese Society can be rough. Think about the average Japanese salaryman. A 8 to 10 shift. Stuck in tight cubicles for days on end. The manager piles onto your desk mountains of overwork material. Staring into a computer screen and a string of endless numbers and code sequences. The embrace of death seems by comparison a pleasant release when you have nothing to look forward to in this world.
I lived there for ten years and never found that. What I found was honesty, culture, politeness and manners. I found a work culture different to mine. Their definition of work is different. Work is an opportunity to give back to society, for what you have been drawing upon since birth - and for that you get paid. It is an extraordinary way to live. Did you ever live there SireN? For long? Maybe 5 years or more? I think one needs to live in a place for a long time to see its beauty. If not, one tends to look at the differences. And that blinds one to what is really there. As to salarymen, they are no different to us. They just work per the above definition, which I think is more noble and has more honor. And I think to a greater degree, the movie catches some of this philosophy, as does the genius of the music.
S K yes because it is. Hans Zimmer is a genius without a doubt. He has never played Japanese musical instruments and yet composed this soundtrack. His music can touch the deepest part of our souls. Masterpiece
I like that quote. But I wonder, if emptiness is a thought, lifestyle or attitude... or whatever.. that run counter to actively help others. Just like meditating, you care about the stuff inside you for the most part, but what has that to do with good or evil? E.g. if you try to empty yourself while others dont have enough to eat on this planet, can u say that there is no moral standard that you can apply on your actions? Evil exists and if you care too much for yourself even if it is for a good reason, wouldnt you judge your behavior by moral means? And to make it even more direct: Your neighbor needs your help, while you are trying to find your inner peace. You ignore him screaming in his house. Thats cruel for most people. But if its not your neighbor, but some people on another continent than its a very diffrent thing for most people. What I want to say is: Good and evil need to be measured... you need a contrast to make good and evil visible. Its not only about your actions that you actually do, but also about the things you are not doing. Focusing on the thing you are actually doing and saying: There is nothing evil in it is just half of the work you have to do to find out if thats actually not evil because you are missing out on the whole potential on what you could rather do. So my question is if I am that far off, if I am asking myself if good and evil nowdays need to deals with responsibility to help others that are in need. How could something be 100% good if it doesnt respect the evil in the world? I dont get an answer on this one and I feel as if you have to deal with the bad stuff in this world and give your best to help others. If you dont do that you can be like neutral and helpfull and even good at some point, but you also dont do anything against evil. You are rather neutral but good. If you teach your "wisdom" to others you take part in the world, but by far not every one becomes a teacher. You have impact on the world by being a good person yourself... but thats not an answer for evil in this world. Inner peace and teaching it is different than outer peace that is far more violent and direct... so you cannot not face it?!?!????? uh that one was long. I wonder if anyone ever reads it through :D
YouProbablyDon't LikeMe Emptiness doesn't refer to a thought, lifestyle or attitude but instead refers to a "way of viewing / perceiving" things in the world. We don't often realise it, but we impute meaning and labels onto objects and other phenomena in reality without realising that the thing we're imputing meaning on doesn't have meaning baked into it as an attribute i.e. it doesn't have inherent existence from its own side, but rather exists as a concept in our minds, and thats it. This can be problematic and lead to delusion it can also strip away the uniqueness of things in the world which is very subtle but can be a big problem. A contrived, non-problematic (I would imagine) example could be, how we call a "car" a "car". This seems totally reasonable, until we look a bit closer....what within the "car" constitutes, the "car"? Can we find the essence of "car-ness" within that object, or is that object just a complex, interconnection of other objects constructed in a certain way to fulfill a certain goal and purpose? This type of investigation can be done with anything really, even yourself or who / what you take yourself to be? All this is useful because our concepts and views can trap us in ignorance, boredom, negativity and often we don't even realise that until we take another perspective and start to try and see the world for what it really is, through personal practice and exploration.
Right now I'm suffering mentally and spirituality, pursuing my dream, I've never faced so much adversity in my life before chasing my goals. It's been months of trying and failing. Everyone around me has no hope in me to be successful, sacrificing everything to achieve what I desire. It might take months or years but, MY TIME IS YET TO COME. I'll be back one day
One of my most beloved films. Its music too. The story of a nation, that would not be allowed to live its own way. And of a man who, filled with shame and remorse for his own "great" nation, changed himself to a totally new human being, to find the peace in his soul, the respect to all these virtues, that more and more tend to disappear from our hearts. All through the Great Sacrifice. To clean your soul and your heart, you must jump into the ferocious fire of hell, face your worst horrors.
"To clean your soul and your heart, you must jump into the ferocious fire of hell, face your worst horrors." - That's a real badass quote there my friend :)
The enemy is within. To see wrong in the other, is ones own wrong. What i like about the way of the Samurai, is that the state of mind is also quite clear externalized. To be still inside, is also still outside. Being still inside and outside, there is no difference between the two.
I once experienced pure love...bliss ... inside my own heart, but could only hold onto it for about 10 seconds...this feeling doesn't require anything external to us...it's inside all of us already :) we are love, don't let the ruling powers here divide us, they don't want us to know this feeling. We are slowly waking up from our induced states of comatose, when we all do we will bring heaven on earth as is written :) I truly love you all, we are all blessed
All this feeling, and Hans Zimmer thought he didn't know much about Japanese music. When I like the soundtrack of any Hollywood movie that I watch, I find that Hans Zimmer is the music arranger, he is creativity itself.
Lost my mum 13 years ago when I was 10 and my dad passed away 2 years ago both the same age when they died and they died of the same thing, this song brings back so many thought's about them both and it's amazing knowing there still in my heart,any one going through a tough time keep your chin up and know that there are better things to come
