NAME: Raijin

DESCRIPTION
A Kami of lightning, thunder and storms in
the Shinto religion. He is typically depicted as
a demon-looking spirit beating drums to create thun-
der, usually with the symbol tomoe drawn on the
drums. Izanami and Izanagi created Raijin after the
creation of Japan. His companion is the demon Raiju,
and he is usually accompanied by the deity known to
challenge him, Fujin, the god of wind. Parents often
tell their children to hide their belly buttons during
thunderstorms. This is due to a folk belief that Raijin
is sometimes credited with eating the navels or abdo-
mens of children. In the event of thunder, parents
traditionally tell their children to hide their navels so
that they are not taken away by the beast Raiju.
