SORU:

What are the basic tenets of Shinto?


CEVAP:

Shinto is the natural religion of Japan and was once its national religion. It includes the worship of kami or spirits. Some kami arelocal, and the spirit is of a particular place – like Amaterasu, the Sun goddess, or Mount Fuji. This religion has no established dogma or unique book, no holiest place, no person or kami viewed as the most sacred, and no well-defined customary prayers. As an alternative, Shinto offers worshippers an assortment of rituals and methods intended to control the relations between living people and the spirits. The key leitmotif in the Shinto religion is love and reverence for ordinary artifacts and processes.
