Social anxiety calls for religion, and globalization accelerates that anxiety. The fewer things logical reason can do, the more religion will serve as a guide for decision-making. In Japan before the dynasty, rainmaking was performed as a national ceremony. Before the introduction of Buddhism, it was believed that the emperor, the governor, had the ability to deliver the voice of national defense to Gods.
Japanese people dance to gods to seek rain at the summits, throw dead horse bones and dirt into the water to offend them. Alternatively,​ ​in China, people wish rain to dragons, and in Sudan and South Africa, there are examples of such great authority as shamans.
Rainmaking is a magical/religious ritual to make it rain when drought continues. This ritual can be found all over the world. Many cultures in the world had the idea that “rain is a gift from God and it is God's punishment that ceases”. Although the method is different, rainmaking rituals around the world are performed with the purpose of attracting God's attention, pleasing and

buying compassion. In addition, it has long been said that places with a lot of water and places with high humidity are easily connected to the spirit world.
There is an anecdote that if you cross the Styx, you will go to the spirit world. In this way, water has played the role of an interface connecting people and the sky since ancient times.

在随着全球化而愈演愈烈的社会焦虑下，这种社会焦虑愈发呼唤宗教和信仰的力量。逻辑推理能达到的事情越少，宗教和信仰就越能成为决策的向导。

在古代的日本，造雨是一种全国性的仪式。在佛教传入之前，人们相信皇帝，统治者有能力向神灵传达声音。日本人拜神求雨，把死马骨和泥土扔进水里触犯神灵；在中国，人们希望神龙降雨；在苏丹和南非，有像萨满这样伟大的权威例子。

当干旱持续时，造雨是一种神奇的宗教仪式，这种仪式遍布世界各地。许多文明中都有“雨是神明的礼物，是神明停止了惩罚”的观念。尽管方法不同，世界各地的造雨仪式都是为了吸引神灵的注意，取悦和获得神的怜悯。另外，人们长期以来一直认为水多、湿度大的地区更容易与精神世界相联系。

有一个传闻说，如果你穿过冥河，你就会进入精神世界。因此，水自古以来就是连接人与神灵的通道。
