Book Synopsis The Essence of Shinto by : Motohisa Yamakage

Book excerpt: Discusses the character and practices of Shinto. Reverence toward nature is the bedrock of Shinto, which otherwise has neither doctrine, commandments, gods, idols, nor organization. It does not use shrines, great and small, to center devotion, and the aim of the individual adherent is to purify thought, behavior, and person to live the Dao, or a moral life.
