I absolutely loved this book by [@[email protected]](https://bsky.brid.gy/ap/did:plc:iuih4csx77qnlekvapp77ofx ). If you are interested in Japanese spiritual practices, Japanese culture, Japan, or how to improve your life, you should definitely read it. I'm extremely grateful that Hiroko so generously shared her knowledge and her own personal journey.

In #JapaneseFolklore there is a giant crab #yokai known as kanibozu. These creatures take on the form of priests and move into empty temples. If a new priest arrives to lead the temple the kanibozu demands they answer a riddle & if they can't solve it, they get eaten.
