Almost all are Japanese terms. The dictionary can be used in the ordinary way if the Shintō term you want to look up is already in Japanese (e.g. kami rather than ‘deity’) and has a main entry in the dictionary. If, as is very likely, the concept or word you want is in English such as ‘pollution’, ‘children’, ‘shrine’, etc., or perhaps a place-name like ‘Kyōto’ or ‘Akita’ which does not have a main entry, then consult the comprehensive Thematic Index of English and Japanese terms at the end of the Dictionary first.

Many lost their lives and land in these tumultuous times. Even when peace came down with Japan’s uni- fication in the Edo period (1603–1867), many would lose their titles or have their land confiscated by order of the new Tokugawa shogunate. Few clans survived this turmoil, the Sagara clan of Kyushu. The Sagara clan hailed from the manor of the same name in present-day Shizuoka Prefecture but moved to Hitoyoshi Kuma (now Hitoyoshi City and Kuma-gun) in what is now Kumamoto Prefecture by order of the Kamakura shogunate at the end of the twelfth century. In its new territory, the Sagara Kumamoto Kuma-gun clan made an effort to preserve the culture that had Prefecture Hitoyoshi City existed there since ancient times in order to gain the respect of the people. 30 | highlighting japan Series 1 The two-storied, 12-meter-high Romon gate at Aoi Aso Shrine 2 A family enjoys a game of Unsun Karuta 3 Rafting on the Kuma-gawa river “Lords tended to reject or destroy the history and culture of their new territories, but the Sagara clan was different,” says Yoshifumi Wada, a member of the Hitoyoshi City Board of Education.

What distinguishes these ten paintings from other depictions of T?sh? Daigongen is that they are based on dreams that appeared to the third Tokugawa shogun, Iemitsu %% (1604-1651), during the last decade of his life.

  • Explore Japan Hokkaido
    Welcome to JAPAN Open a world map and look at the extensive Asia/ Pacific region. Almost at the very center, you'll discover the Japanese archipelago stretching north to south along the eastern edge of the Asian continent. Japan has lured untold numbers of adventurers since Marco Polo first introduced it to the world back in the 13th century as " Zipangu — the Land of Gold." Though the Japan of today may not be a land of gold, the "Neo Zipangu" does possess powerful and magnet-like attractions: great cultural variety, colorful and inspiring natural attractions beautifully interwoven by distinct four seasonal changes, not to mention the overflowing hospitality of its people. As such, Japan is vigorously gaining in popularity as a tourist destination that is easily accessible from any part of the world. A destination any one can enjoy on a reasonable budget and with a sense of complete security. This is where the past literally greets the future. This is where they both mingle. Japan has a long history of absorbing advanced cultures from the Asian Continent from ancient times through the Middle Ages. Later it began to assimilate elements of Western civilization from the latter half of the 19th century. By selectively assimilating these many cultural influences, the country has successfully added rich new dimensions and depth to its indigenous culture. This marvelous harmony between the refinement of things and concepts "Oriental" blended with the leading-edge technology and the often Ultramodern urban lifestyle you find in Japan today is truly proof of a long and eloquent history.

    Minzoku Neo-Shintô Outline Shintô shin | jin (kami) tô | dô | michi (way) The indigenous spirituality of Japan and the Japanese people Kami-no-michi kami (that which inspires feelings of reverence, awe, gratitude, fear/terror) no (possesive particle | of) michi (way) Way of the Kami Minzoku min (people) zoku (customs, manners) "Minzoku" means 'folk customs' and refers to the practices and beliefs of the commons – the common people of a region considered as representatives of a traditional way of life and especially as the originators or carriers of the customs, beliefs, and arts that make up a distinctive culture. Folk customs are based on the Five "E"s: Existential, Experiential, Experimental, Empirical, and Event Oriented. The 5 Es Existential, Experiential, Experimental, Empirical, and Event Oriented Here are the relevant definitions of the Five Es, as they apply to a Folk Religion. While none of these are unique to folk religion, if a religion's praxis is based on all of these and control of that praxis is local, that religion may be considered to be "folk". Existential Relating to or dealing with existence. Based on experience; empirical. Existence The fact or state of existing; being. All that exists. A thing that exists; an entity. Specific presence; occurrence. Existentialist Based on the idea that you are what you say you are, because you engage in some of all the practices that make it up. The folk, the commons, are usually existentialists, as opposed to essentialists. Essentialist Based on the idea that because of what you say you are, you must engage in all the practices that make it up.
