Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are Japanese people religious – and, if so, in what ways? David Lewis addresses this question from the perspective of ordinary Japanese people in the context of their life cycles, and explores why they engage in religious activities. He not only discusses how Japanese people engage in different religious practices as they encounter new events in their lives but also analyses the attitudes and motivations behind their behaviour. Activities such as fortune-telling, religious rites in the workplace, ancestral rites and visits to shrines and temples are actually engaged in by many people who view themselves as ‘non- religious’ but express their motivations in terms other than the conventional ‘religious’ ones. This book outlines the religious options available, and assesses why people choose particular religious activities at various times in their lives or in specific circumstances. The author challenges some widespread assumptions about religion in urban and industrial contexts and also shows how some of the underlying motivations behind Japanese behaviour are expressed both in religious and non-religious forms.

The present Constitution of the Empire of Japan was promulgated by the Emperor on the nth of February 1889, that day being the National Festival of Kigensetsu or the anniversary of the foundation of the Empire by the First Emperor Jimmu Tenno (f1pK JiM.). In the framing of this Constitution, Marquis Ito with many high officials, had been sent to Europe with the Imperial Commission to examine the constitutions of Western Countries, and most of the principles which find a place in the component elements of constitutional governments have been adopted, so far as they are consistent with the fundamental principles of the form of Imperial Government which existed from the beginning of the Empire. That fundamental principle is clearly stated in the 1st Article of the Constitution: "The Empire of Japan shall be reigned over and governed by a line of Emperors unbroken for ages eternal." Marquis Ito, in his "Commentaries on the Constitution" (Siittl translated into English by Baron Miyoji Ito #JCcLfp), writes "The Sacred Throne of Japan is inherited from Imperial Ancestors, and is to be bequeathed to posterity; in it resides the power to reign over and govern the State." From this it will be seen that the foundation of the Constitution is the worship of Imperial Ancestors, a fact which is definitely set forth in the Preamble of the Constitution which runs thus: --"Having, by virtue of the glories of our Ancestors, ascended the throne of a lineal succession unbroken for ages eternal; remembering that Our beloved subjects are the very same that have been favoured with the benevolent care and affectionate vigilance of Our Ancestors, and desiring to promote their welfare and give development to their moral and intellectual...
