仏壇も墓参りもない仏教
when we mention the word "buddhism," many people think
of burning incense and praying at a Buddhist altar during
the Bon Festival or other such occasion.
There are Buddhists in many Asian countries, and
There are different schools of Buddhism in different countries.
In Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries.
Buddhism is widely practiced.
The way funerals are conducted, tombs arranged and the roles
that monks play are quite different from how things
are done in Japan and Okinawa.
