How are the soul parts of nature represented in Japan?

Answer from the V.M. Samael Aun Weor.

There is no jungle that does not have its genius... There is no tree that does not have its creature, its powers and its intelligence...

There is no tree without a soul... Every plant is the physical body of an elemental creature of nature...

Plants have souls, and the souls of plants contain all the powers of the Mother Goddess of the World...

The souls of plants are the elementals of Nature. These innocent creatures have not yet left Eden, and therefore have not yet lost their fiery powers...

The elementals of the plants play like innocent children among the ineffable melodies of this great Eden of the Mother Goddess of the World.

The aromas of fire intoxicate us, and full of ecstasy we rise to the ineffable joy of NIRVANA...

There is nothing that does not have a soul in this fiery creation...

Samael Aun Weor. Excerpt from the book: Igneous Rose.

Answer from the Magazine "The Wisdom of the Being".

Shintoism is based on the veneration of Kami: supernatural spirits that exist throughout nature with veneration for their ancestors.

The term “Shinto” means “path to the gods” and what it is about is living in harmony with the kami and thus enjoying their approval and protection. They know that they are in everything, but there are places where they can go when they feel the need to make a prayer or request, these places are called sanctuaries and are distinguished because they have a “torii.”

Torii translates as bird and the letter i means "place", together it means "Place where the birds perch", those who have this faith are certain that the birds are messengers of the kami, supra-human entities that personify different powerful deities of nature.
