Description:
What does religion mean to Japanese people? We visit Shinto shrines for New Year's prayers, welcome our ancestors during Obon, and celebrate Christmas with family and loved ones. Why do Japanese people visit both shrines and temples? What are the differences between Shinto and Buddhism? What kind of deities are the Seven Lucky Gods? What is the relationship between Shinto and sumo wrestling? Why did Buddhism become associated with death and funerals? What percentage of Japanese weddings follow Christian ceremonies? This book explains all aspects of Japanese religion—things we think we know but actually don't—in simple English.
