| Abstract |
This paper aims to Japanese Zen monk Nanpobunshi(1555-1620) who was an important scholar of the Satsunan School to explore his thought of Confucianism and use of it. Through the research, we draw the following conclusions: Based on Shushigaku, Nanpobunshi emphasized the importance of learning which is about personal cultivation and related education, and advocated the consistency of Buddism and Confuciansim. He also used Confucianism to construct the rationality of praying for Lord, and Satsuma’s aggression to Ryukyu.
