As far back as the times of Lao-tzu and Confucius Chinese already have an idiom saying "Man can overcome divine plans". Taoism is Chinese "ancient science" which is based on careful observations, studies and experimentation in absence of the tools and equipments we have today. Like the early ancient Greeks, they also believe that "men or women who great contribution to the people and society will become. gods"

Does anyone know the intro music straight at the beginning? I know it was used in another documentary from Japan.

They were cursed and turned to stone. Waiting for the last day where they will rise again to fight evil. Who put all that sulfur there. Its toxic to man to keep him out.
