Japan, a halfmoon of islands is a little smaller than California. For every square mile of land, there are 9 miles of coastline - 80% is mountainous. Most Japanese embrace the Shinto and Buddhist religions. They marry Shinto and are buried Buddhist.

I undertake the precept to abstain from taking life.
I undertake the precept not to take what ha snot been given to me.
I undertake the precept to abstain from sexual misconduct.
I undertake the precept to abstain from intoxicating beverages.
