My friend from Japan is coming to visit me and she wants to bring me a gift about Japanese Buddhism. She has asked me to recommend something but I don't know enough about the culture. Is there anything that is distinctively Japanese and yet Buddhist like a kind of wall hanging or scroll or something? Thanks
I agree with Mary Contrary- a Mala, known in Japanese as Juzu or (more respectfully) Ojuzu. There are slight differences between the Ojuzus used by different schools of Buddhism so it can be a little more personal by being the type her group uses. You can buy them enough places that it would not be inconvenient for her, there are a wide range of prices so you aren't likely to restrict her to more than she was considering paying.
