A culture of offering rice and receiving leftovers.
It is said that many Japanese do not hold specific faiths, but many homes have kamidana or butsudan (Buddhist altar).
Unique to Japan, ancestral spirits are revered through offerings of rice, water, and agricultural products, and leftovers are received.
The idea is to offer with gratitude to gods, Buddha, or ancestors, and to gain protection by eating it.
"KyoTOMO Goshinmai Ise Hikari" is also offered at Kamiyama Shrine in Reikyu, Shizuoka Prefecture, a power spot, where worshippers who receive blessings also receive it as a gift and eat it for good health.
It is also used as an offering at memorial services for former Japanese soldiers resting in overseas battlefields, conveying gratitude and reverence for those who sacrificed for the country.
