Rice is the staple food in Japan as well as East Asia and is the symbol of Japanese food culture.
Rice stalks bow when ripe and shine beautifully in the sun during harvest time. The more downward the rice stalks are bent, the more grains they contain. The curvature is an expression of humility.
The Japanese of the past compared this to the idea that the wiser a person becomes, the more humility he or she develops.
