With this past chapter seeing Hashirama's thousand hand technique or whatever, I've noticed that Senju (rinnegan included) techniques seem to have Buddhist undertones, as Uchiha/Sharingan techniques seem to have Shinto undertones. All Sharingan moves are named after Shinto deities. And even the story is similar to Shinto myths.
Also I'm assuming that the circle and dot that appeared on Hashirama's forehead, when he entered Sage Mode, signifies the Third Eye. You will also notice that his real eyes change in appearance to the same shape.
Whatever type of Sage Mode he has probably deals with the Third Eye some how. More in the way of having access to Nature Chakra, as in the way that the Third Eye supposedly helps with a person's chakras and what not. And I didn't read too much into his eyes changing. All of the other characters that used some form of Sage Mode had their eyes change too.
I haven't pondered this thought much as it just came to me after re-reading the chapter, so if the idea of the two clans having different religious background is inaccurate I apologize. However assuming this is the case, is anyone with more knowledge on these religions willing to speculate on the significance of this? How do the Uzumaki factor into this? Could this foreshadow something?
It's probably irrelevant, but it's food for thought. ^_^ just a little bored here lol
