Master and year-end gifts, Christmas and presents
It is now December.
In the traditional Japanese calendar, the word “shiwasu” refers to the month of December and is still widely used in Japanese culture and customs. There are various theories, but it is believed that “shigahasasu” changed to “shisasu” because “shi” refers to Buddhist monks, and in the old days, it was customary for households to invite Buddhist monks to read sutras and perform Buddhist rites during the winter, thus keeping the monks busy visiting various parts of the country.
For Japanese people, Shihasasu and Christmas are important seasons to reflect on the year and look forward to the new year despite the busyness.
It is also customary to express gratitude in the form of Christmas presents and year-end gifts to those who have taken care of us and our families.
