Japanese monk, Kansho Tagai is in charge of a 400-year-old temple in central Tokyo and has the basic services any other temple in Japan has to offer. What makes this temple different from others is that Tagai sometimes hosts events where he takes up the stage name MC Happiness and raps the teachings of Buddha.

Tagai has been rapping since 2006 and has been blending together modern words with Buddhist teachings to make it more comprehensible for the younger generation. He hopes that the younger generation will “see the fun side of Buddhism and actually be interested in the religion.” Tagai is thinking about incorporating tap dance into his act too later this month and maybe even perform a samba at another performance.

I would never have thought of putting Buddhism (or any other religion for that matter) and rap together. But if it works, then why not? It’s an interesting combination.

Have you seen any weird methods religions try to convert people with?

You can check out Tagai in action below.
