Here's a more in depth look at the proper way to pray at a Shinto shrine 二礼二拍手一礼 (nirei nihakushu ichirei) 1.) Offer coins (5 yen and 10 yen are preferable as they mean "juubun goen ga kimasu youni" which is a pun and means "I pray for enough good fortune" 10 = juu = juubun = enough 5 = go = goen = good fortune 2.) Bow twice 3.) Place your hands together and bring your right hand slightly lower than your left 4.) Clap twice 5.) Pray 6.) Bow once 7.) Take a step back, then face away I was too awkward to go through all the proper steps as there were many people waiting to pray and I felt bad recording during that time- PLUS not everyone does it perfectly so don't worry! It's what you're thinking and how you're feeling during it that matters. I really hope you enjoyed this vlog!!!
