The rice lotus god is the god of grain and food in Japanese mythology. In charge of harvest, it is said that he sometimes appears in the form of a man, sometimes in the form of a woman, and even changes into other forms such as spiders.

Historical evolution: the era of offering sacrifices to gods
Basic overview
Because of the high output of the rice lotus god, many Japanese enterprises also worship the rice lotus god, which has been included in the category of Japanese Shinto gods. There are many shrines in Japan dedicated to Miriam, and the most important one is the Miriam Society seen by Fuji in Kyoto. [2]
The Japanese think that if they put on new sandals when the sun goes down, they will become foxes. This superstition is widely circulated all over Japan. Therefore, whether it is slippers or leather shoes, if you want to wear new shoes, you must choose in the morning and you can't wear new shoes at night. If you have to wear them, remember to coat the soles with 10% coal ash or ink until they are dry. In addition, the Mi Lian shrine dedicated to the fox spirit is quite popular in all parts of Japan, so the fox spirit, also known as Yu Mi Lian, is regarded as a god who prays for a prosperous (auspicious) business, just like our land temple here, which can be seen everywhere. Originally, the fox fairy had the characteristics of a god of agriculture, and farmers always prayed for a bumper harvest of grain. Among them, the most famous is the rice field literature society in Kyoto, which is the base camp of the rice field shrine in Japan. In addition to the lovely fox statues, there are thousands of the most distinctive torii. The horse painting here (a small wooden board for wishing, with words of blessing written on it, is hung on a special frame for horse painting to achieve the wish) is a lovely fox shape. You can also draw a beard for it and pray for the fox spirit to fulfill your wish.
In addition, there is a kind of bean skin sushi in Japanese cuisine, which tastes sour and sweet. It is probably fried bean skin mixed with vinegar and sugar, which is called "Daohe Sushi". But because foxes are carnivores, they don't like fried tofu skin very much. [3]
The development of history
Since the Middle Ages, Japan has regarded the fox as the messenger of Mirian God, and almost all the Mirian shrines in the country have replaced the stubborn dog with the fox. The relationship between Millian and the fox comes from the alias of Cang Dao's soul "Yu Jin Shen" (みけつのかみ). The ancient name of the fox is "けつ", so "みけつのかみ "is interpreted as homophonic" Three Fox Gods ".
Since the Middle Ages, industry and commerce have gradually developed, and the god of rice lotus, who is in charge of high yield, has also begun to symbolize wealth and is worshipped by industry and commerce. Daohe Shrine is already the largest number of shrines in Japan, and the head office of the National Daohe Shrine in Japan is Fujian Daohe Society, located in Fujian District, Kyoto. It is also known as Japan's Sammi Lotus, together with Youmi Lotus Shrine in Saga Prefecture and Miyami Lotus Shrine in Ibaraki Prefecture.
The torii color of Daoism and Shrine is uniform red. Some enterprises will offer a torii to the shrine if the benefits are good. Therefore, different from other shrines, there is often a row of torii in front of torii in Daohe Shrine. The most spectacular thing is to meet Daohe Society. Thousands of torii are divided into several rows, from the foot of the mountain to the top.
god
Among the foxes in Japanese mythology, the messenger of Miriam is Shan Fox, also known as Yu Mi Lian.
The fox that is sacrificed most in Daohe Temple is the white fox. The white fox's coat color is white, which symbolizes people's happy achievements and is the representative of a good fox. According to legend, Abe's mother Ge Ye is also a white fox.
The white fox has been practicing for more than 65,438+0,000 years, and it has powerful divine power to become a tiger, deified as a fox above the nine-tailed fox. There are four tails. Have clairvoyance, have the ability to see through all kinds of things, and have golden eyes. And the 3000-year-old magic fox has also become an empty fox. The empty fox has no tail and appears as a human being. Its ears are the ears of the fox.
It is also recorded that tian hu is the highest position of the fox in the literature, and the empty fox is considered as the gesture of Tian Hu after his retirement. Therefore, as the first burden of the royal family, Tian Hu is the most superior. Because the empty fox belongs to God, it belongs to the highest position including Yuxian Lotus.
