Synopsis:
The long history of Shinto is deeply interwoven with Japanese spirituality and mythology, and indeed the religion is regarded as Japan's very spiritual roots. Through years of dedicated study and practice, revered Shinto priest Motohisa Ymakage has become one of the most renowned writers on Shinto, with an unrivalled authority to explain its role in modern Japan and the world. He clarifies the central beliefs and values of Shintoism and examines the relatiosnhips between the kami (gods), man and nature.
Through Yamakage's emphasis on the universality of Shinto and its inherence in the natural world, this book will also appeal to the more general reader, offering an appreciation of humanity's relationship with nature and the individual's role in a larger society.
"We can find in Shinto a universal meaning and a practical ethos for the world of today. It can attune us to see the connection between the well-being of the natural world and our own spiritual well-being." Motohisa Yamakage. |
