There are two occupations in Japan: samurai and ninja. What's the difference between these two occupations?

In Japan, the word "ninja" can be traced back to the edo period. Japanese traditional ninjas are generally born in farmers, and their aristocratic status is different from that of samurai. Like samurai, ninjas are divided into upper, middle and lower levels according to their grades. Shangren, also known as "think tank forbearance", is responsible for the command of strategic layout and tactics. Zhong Ren, the soul figure in actual combat, has good skills; Lower forbearance, also called "body forbearance", is a soldier among ninjas and the first ninja to fight the enemy directly at the forefront.

Just as a samurai follows Bushido, a ninja follows its own special code, that is, Ninjutsu. The basic purpose of ninja learning to use Ninjutsu is not only to obtain the ultimate means of violence and destruction, but also to cultivate the harmony between the individual and the surrounding environment. One view is that the theoretical basis of Ninjutsu comes from China's The Art of War. On the basis of the theory of art of war, the Japanese developed Ninjutsu by adding cultivation and ambush skills to the mountains. Similar to the traditional bushido spirit, the life of ninjas does not belong to themselves, but to their owners or an organization. They can make sacrifices for their master at any time. The meaning of a ninja's life only lies in the moment of assassination, just like cherry blossoms, the most beautiful time is when it withers, which is also the interpretation of "death" in the deep heart of the Japanese nation. So although the status of ninja is not high, it is still a very important part of Japanese culture.
