As for Japan, after the <Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves> developed the plum chanting culture which was introduced from China to a certain height, the sad thoughts reflected in <Tale of Genji> and the concept of appreciating the beauty of cherry blossom fall matured gradually [6-9]. Whether life and death are distinct or simply reincarnation, the two peoples' general cognition has taken quite different paths.
