Samurai is a class like caste and it's hereditary. Therefore, the sons of farmers were destined to be farmers and samurai's son were samurai. However, there were rare cases for some to be in samurai class. One is to show great talents in swordsmanship and others include becoming great scholars. It's very rare, though. Inside the samurai class, there was also hierarchy, and it does not always mean upgrading the status if one becomes samurai from the other classes as many samurais were poor. It was more like hereditary occupations. It was hereditary, but sometimes someone who was in favour with the higher authority could become a Samurai such as the English sailor Williams Adams who sailed to Japan but later became a Samurai actually being a samurai took many talents including heredity but that doesn't mean your destined to become a farmer. you see Japanese society was broken down in classes. durning the time off the samurai the shogun was like the "lord" or king. after him was the damiyo or someone who does the kings work(sometimes!) and the samurai. if you worked up in ranks you could have a chance to be a samurai. to be a samurai took many years of dedication and training. if caught in a dirty deed a samurai would commit ritual suicide to peserve his personal honor. At mid 1500 the separation law came. Before it anyone who could afford training could become a samurai, after that you had to be the son of a samurai.

Although I'm Japanese-American, I am a little sketchy on Japanese history. What I do know is that it started once Japan was unified under one shogun. Prior to this unification, all samurai had a daimyo, or lord. There were may daimyo in pre-unified Japan. Once unified, however, the role of the warrior was lessened and samurai were not as useful. Interestingly, this was about the time that bushido, or the way of the warrior, first emerged and was formalized. Bushido teaches, among other virtues, that the samurai must serve his lord to the death and death in service of one's lord is the greatest honor and samurai could experience. In pre-unified Japan, when all the fighting was occuring, this concept did not exist. Samurai frequently shifted their loyaties. Some historians attribute the emergence of bushido in unified Japan as the samurai trying to justify their existence in a now peaceful Japan. Much later, around the 19th century, a US naval officer, Commodore Perry, forced Japan to open it previous closed society to trade. It was at this time that the leaders of Japan realized that the "old" samurai ways would not be able to compete militarily with Western weaponry. There was a movement to adopt Western technology, which eventually lead to the illegalization of samurai. Of course, this policy wasn't very popular with some old school samurai, who fought the modernization movement. Eventually, however, techonology won. Samurai lost. In modern day Japan, remnants of the samurai culture still remain. Modern Japanese businessmen still find samurai technique applicable to forming corporate strategy and will study writings of past samurai for business enlightenment. Modern day Japanese athletes do the same. In a way, the samurai may be gone, but their influence on methods of handling competition and conflict are alive and well in Japan. so it was the age of guns that ended the age of the samurai

samurai developed their own cultures that influenced Japanese culture as a whole. The culture associated with the samurai such as the tea ceremony, monochrome ink painting, rock gardens and poetry were adopted by warrior patrons throughout the centuries 1200-1600. These practices were adapted from the Chinese arts. Zen monks introduced them to Japan and they were allowed to flourish due to the interest of powerful warrior elites. Muso Soseki (1275-1351) was a Zen monk who was advisor to both Emperor Go-Daigo and General Ashikaga Takauji (1304-58). Muso as well as other monks acted as political and cultural diplomats between Japan and China. Muso was particularly well known for his garden design.Another Ashikaga patron of the arts was Yoshimasa. His cultural advisor, the Zen monk Zeami, introduced tea ceremony to him. Previously, tea had been used primarily for Buddhist monks to stay awake during meditation. samurai were the upper class, right after the royal family (which were divine.)
