Hand seals in general are called mudra, and the ninja hand seals are based on Taoist/Shugendo/Buddhist practices.

probably so but the similarities are insane. They're born on the same day, only into martial arts, incredibly fast/strong and even have the same injuries. Rock lee broke his spine/back just like bruce lee.

In Naruto the character Rock Lee definitely is based on the Martial Artist Bruce Lee. Rock Lee is one of the only characters that can specializes in Taijutsu or Martial Arts, and his speed and insane training regimen is also based on Bruce Lee! The 8 Gates is definitely somewhat based on the Mysterious power and Speed Bruce Lee displayed in movies and in real demonstrations. Its said that Bruce used Qigong to make himself stronger and faster. Also, his weightlifting program and exercise routine made him faster and incredibly stronger than most. And Interestingly enough, Rock Lee's injury is based on Bruce Lee's injury too. Rock lee messed up his spine to the point where he couldn't even walk and this comes from bruce lee's problem too. Bruce injured himself while training and he severely messed up his back/spine to the point where he could barely move. So he made a program to help him to train once more.

In the anime Naruto, the hand seals used are supposed to channel "chakra" energy to use ninja magic or Jutsu. But, Did you know hand seals come from Hinduism and especially Buddhism?! In Buddhism, hand seals are called mudra and channel energy depending on what you want. Such as, using mudra for meditative practice or for health purposes!

In the manga Vegeta was meditating for 100 something days in Planet yardrat?? Think thats why Vegeta "might" be stronger than goku rn. In base form that is.

Real Meditation takes some effort and can be hard work. Think thats why Piccolo was sweating so much while meditating. Jiren's meditation was on a whole different level than everybody else.

Yeah they mention meditation In dragon ball z too. Its real but most have trouble with it saying that its too difficult to do.

I think its really cool how dragonball series has displayed powerful techniques like meditation, and even a bit of yoga! (i saw broly trying to do tree pose in the manga). Broly In Tree Pose The technique of meditation has always been around but it's is something characters like Vegeta need to progress on their path as a martial artist. Goku used to meditate when he was younger, Tien did too, and Piccolo meditates in DBZ alot. Vegeta is really smart because he realizes that their bodies have been trained to the maximum but now they must strengthen their minds through mental training.. In real life, meditation is used to calm ones mind/body and can be used to achieve spiritual enlightenment. Its insane that Akira Toriyama (RIP) knew a good amount of concepts on meditation. Stuff like half lotus, Burmese pose and full lotus are used in the show. When Jiren Meditated he used full lotus, a pose that has ones feet near their thighs to go into deep states of meditation. Jiren: Full Lotus and using cosmic Mudra Full Lotus Usually masters of meditation use this pose and beginners use Burmese pose. They even use the mudra or Dhyana mudra instead of the popular "Chin" mudra or hand seal thats quite popular. -Goku & Meditation Goku in Particular is using mindfulness and basic meditation to calm himself in the manga. As Ultra Instinct is Highly Difficult to get into unless one meditates. Goku has been seen meditating in Dragonball Super Anime although its not while sitting. He is using the technique called mindfulness to be aware of his thoughts, feelings, and environment before the assassin Hit tried to kill him. All day, 24/7 And if you don't know, mindfulness is a real meditation technique that can be used whenever you want. You can be anywhere and use mindfulness. Once again, Its when you focus on being aware of everything within and around you, in the present time that is. Also, Zen Buddhist monks use mindfulness to cultivate an advanced state of awareness called Mushin..... A Mind State that inspired Ultra Instinct. I might talk about Mushin eventually in another post.

I'd be in Yuyu Hakusho giving everybody the hands.

I have no idea but im having a good time with the series. Im on episode 3 right now.

I like Marvel alot. Its more positive and is not as dark as DC. DC is great but the movies just seem off brand to me.

I got these few ideas. Ki Manipulation ability to use ki to fight and defend Magic Being able to use magic at will with alchemy Hand Gestures Using hand gestures to focus chi for summoning spells.

im watching alot of one piece and kaiju no 8. Good stuff!
