It's important to note that, once started, it's difficult to stop a religion from taking secular control of a country. The Pope almost took power in Europe. In Japan, religion almost took control, while in Tibet, religion did take control.

The previous video introduces us to the Heian Period, but the video does not do justice to the Heian Period, so I am also posting these extra videos.

The Heian Period is the best-known and most famous period of ancient Japan. It was a time of major arts activity, and is considered by many people to be the golden age of ancient Japanese culture and society.

I am skipping over videos 38 through 42 because they are unimportant.
