Download or read book Shinto the Kami Way written by Sokyo Ono, Ph.D. and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An excellently rounded introduction by an eminent Shinto scholar."--Library Journal Shinto, the indigenous faith of the Japanese people, continues to fascinate and mystify both the casual visitor to Japan and the long-time resident. Relatively unknown among the religions of the world, Shinto: The Kami Way provides an enlightening window into this Japanese faith. In its general aspects, Shinto is more than a religious faith. It is an amalgam of attitudes, ideas, and ways of doing things that through two millennia and more have become an integral part of the way of the Japanese people. Shinto is both a personal faith in the kami--objects of worship in Shinto and an honorific for noble, sacred spirits--and a communal way of life according to the mind of the kami. This introduction unveils Shinto's spiritual characteristics and discusses the architecture and function of Shinto shrines. Further examination of Shinto's lively festivals, worship, music, and sacred regalia illustrates Shinto's influence on all levels of Japanese life. Fifteen photographs, numerous drawings and Dr. Ono's text introduce the reader to two millennia of indigenous Japanese belief in the kami and in communal life. Chapters include: The Kami Way Shrines Worship and Festivals Political and Social Characteristics Some Spiritual Characteristics
Download or read book The Evolution of Kami s Soul written by M. B. Heard and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-05 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heard brings Buddhist philosophy to life in this epic tale of a sentient being's journey through seven incarnations. The Evolution of Kami's Soul is a brilliant novel, complicated as a three-tiered chess game yet simple as an Eric Satie tune. An allegorical depiction of the dance between animus and anima, this novel startles like Amos Tutola's My Life in the Bush of Ghosts. If Tutola has dinner with Mahatma Gandhi and Karl Gustav Jung in the afterlife, they will undoubtedly discuss Heard's book.
Download or read book Buddhas and Kami in Japan written by Fabio Rambelli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-08-29 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a multidisciplinary approach to the combinatory tradition that dominated premodern and early modern Japanese religion, known as honji suijaku (originals and their traces). It questions received, simplified accounts of the interactions between Shinto and Japanese Buddhism, and presents a more dynamic and variegated religious world, one in which the deities' Buddhist originals and local traces did not constitute one-to-one associations, but complex combinations of multiple deities based on semiotic operations, doctrines, myths, and legends. The book's essays, all based on specific case studies, discuss the honji suijaku paradigm from a number of different perspectives, always integrating historical and doctrinal analysis with interpretive insights.
