In the beginning of time, the heaven and earth were one. The gods roamed the forest and the country side, and all of nature was generously blessed. The soil was rich, the seasons were kind and harvest was bountiful. In return, the people paid homage to the gods. Whenever there was a tree exquisite shape and beauty, a rock of majestic stature, a stream that murmurs melodies there a divine presence was said to dwell. Thus, a temple was erected, an offering made and a festival was held.
