Where do we come from? What proizchodit with us when we die? How should we live our lives? We continue to ask these questions. Indeed, the desire to set them may be one of the reasons that make us human. All societies are asking these questions, but not all of society can find the answers. In most ancient societies, the answer to these important questions, was religion. One of the ways that ancient religion was trying to answer basic questions about life and what it means to be human, it's stories, myths. Myth, in the true sense of the word, this is the true story, which is not in doubt.
Because the myths reflect the culture that produces them, it is often useful to know a little about them. This is especially true in Japan, where a number of reasons prepared a rich and complex set of myths and mythology.
