  • Shinto Gagaku Flyer.Pdf
    Institute for Japanese Studies Lecture Series An Introduction to Shinto and Gagaku: Japan's Traditional Religion and Music Moriyasu Ito, Atsuki Katayama, Takanaga Tsutsumi Meiji Jingu Shrine (Tokyo, Japan) Monday, September 24, 2018 Lecture & Performance 5:15-7:00pm Doors Open at 5:00pm Jennings Hall 001 (1735 Neil Ave.) Many in contemporary Japan enjoy the occasions of Halloween and Christmas while the patterns of their daily life honor the traditions of Buddhism and Shintoism. Indeed, Japan is best known to the rest of the world for its Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, especially in the ancient capitals of Kyoto and Nara, together with cultural legacies such as Zen practices, gardens and other forms of art. Today’s presentation will focus on Shinto and gagaku music that goes with Shinto ceremonies. Shinto is Japan’s indigenous religion that long predates the arrival of Buddhism in the sixth century via China and Korea. To this day, a vast majority of Japanese people visit Shinto shrines on seasonal and auspicious occasions throughout the year. Unlike most organized religions, however, Shinto has no original founder, no formal doctrines, and no holy scriptures. One of the best ways to learn about Shinto is to attend a presentation, and to experience some aspects of it first-hand, by those who practice it. For today’s presentation, three priests from Meiji Jingu¸ one of the best known shrines to both Japanese and foreigners, will discuss the relationship among Shinto, nature, and the way of Japanese life. They will also perform gagaku, Japan’s traditional music, which can transport the audience in the echo of time and space from the ancient to the present.

  • Aspects of Shinto in Japanese Communication*
    Intercultural Communication Studies XII-4 2003 Asian Approaches to Human Communication Aspects of Shinto in Japanese Communication* Kazuya Hara Meikai University, Japan Abstract A person’s religious view is one of the elements that strongly influences his or her guiding principle in daily communication. In this essay, the author focuses on Shinto and attempts to conceptualize its influence on aspects of Japanese daily life and communication. First, the author reviews Shinto’s definitions, types of modern Shinto, the concept of kami (gods), the-other- world-views, reverence of nature, worship of ancestors, musubi (the mystical power of becoming or creation), and purity. Then, the author proposes two communication models based on a Shinto perspective: (1) kan’no (responding to nature as a deity) as intrapersonal communication; and (2) the sense of oneness with kami achieved by carrying mikoshi (a portable Shinto shrine) in matsuri festival. Introduction Sound human communication is being confronted with crises because of environmental disruption, superficial human relationships in society, or inhumane crimes. In such a time, it seems meaningful to rethink what we live by, and to what we owe our appreciation for our existence in this world. A person’s religious view is one of the elements that strongly influences his or her guiding principle in daily communication. For example, Wakimoto (1990) states that religious worldview not only inspires a person’s way of life, but also sways his or her value judgment and decision making. Among various religious and cultural views held, for most Japanese people, Shinto1 has had the greatest influence on their communication as the nucleus of their mental and behavioral culture with its simplicity (e.g., Irwin, 1996; Tsujimura, 1987).
