Now, this may very well be in the wrong forum, but please bear with me as this thread has to do with both the soul, and weapons...
anyways, as you may or may not know, the samurai considered their sword to be their soul...
now, my question is, what were the spiritual implications of their swords breaking? because swords to break, through either misuse, or putting them through the one millionth customers head, they do break... so were the implications to the samurai when that occured? did they just get a new sword and THAT was their soul? was there some sort of ceremony?
just another friendly attempt to get some answers, and mebbe start a good conversation
