ishigami san 石神さん The Venerable Stone Deity
Once 柳右衛門 Ryuemon saw a large rock falling from the sky and wanted to venerate it in his estate. He asked a strong forest worker to crry it to his home. The worker could carry it without aproblem, finding it quite light. But when ther reached the pass, the rock suddenly felt so heavy he could not carry it any more.
