Shinto and daoism are probably the most nature friendly ways of being and living communally

[@chrisplaysdrums09]

It’s actually really amazing how well they compliment eachother.

[@mrsmaxson4620]

My daughter has felt a calling to Shinto and as her mother, I appreciate videos like yours as a way of showing her I am in support of her. That I embrace and respect where her heart has called her. Thank you for this video♡

[@JapaneseSalon]

How wonderful! Thank you!

I am Catholic. My grandmother was a Taoist with several of her own rituals. I respect your rituals and look forward to incorporating them into my daily life. God bless ❤

Wonderful to hear! Thank you ❤️

They are amazingly helpful for betterment of ones mind body and soul. And quite enjoyable also hehe

Your explanation looks lot similar to Amazonian spirituality. Although we live long distance, I believe we all connected through the Great Spirit. Cheers!

[@antonio_alfa]

I believe there is one single shinto ritual: our life, every single moment. Living in profound emphaty with the Creation, Mother Nature.

[@medwho959]

Simply giving gratitude to the creator, not his creation.

[@jordanvilchez2900]

These mindful practices are calming, centering and grounding. -They are an active, respectful, and participatory engagement with life. Many thanks for highlighting these essentials. 🦋

I've come upon the ideas of Shinto + Buddhism aftee being pushed into Christian practices as a kid. I find this very interesting, and I wish to adopt these as soon as I can. Thank you so much for your kindness and willingness to share!

Thank you for this video❤️ in my family, we practice a blend of shintoism, Buddhism, & paganism (I am european-american/native american & my husband is from Japan). It is amazing how much is similar between all of the nature-based spiritualities. In our home, they blend seamlessly together to create a very positive energy and lifestyle that represents our family’s mixed heritage.

Thank you!!

[@NeniomFood]

In Mexico, Catholicism is the predominant religion, but I've always disagreed with their beliefs which made me cynical towards spirituality in a way. As years have passed I have sometimes felt the need to find something else, something greater, something to connect to, and I think Shintoism strongly resonates with me. この動画を作ってありがとうございます！

[@JapaneseSalon]

Thank you! In Mexico, you have also a rich cultural history and civilization before Catholicism arrived. So I can imagine Shinto relates to you! Very nice!

[@kelleywyskiel8513]

Thank you. This was very easy to understand and a great reminder for me. Sometimes I get busy with life and forget the small but very significant moments of living it.

Arigatou gozaimashita. One celebration during wintertime is Hatsumode. (I wasn't able to attend due to our kannushi retiring and closing the shrine though.😢 Instead, I prayed at my kamidana, which is not the same.)

[@JapaneseSalon]

Hatsumode is a nice symbolic ceremony to start a year. However, if we can’t do, we can do the way you did and doing purification and cleaning before the new year! 💖

Arigato gozaimasu + cam on nhieu (Giving much thanks+ feeling in Vietnamese) Azumi! It's great to hear and see how these traditional practices share similarities across cultures. Even in ancient Vietnam there's a similar respect. I especially appreciated hearing your distinction between practices for connecting with yourself vs. meditation too. Often there's a lack of distinction in a lot of Western teachings which can be confusing for people starting their foray into these practices but connecting with ourselves is just as much needed if not more here. You are doing wonderful and important work for us.

​@@Vi6kyes, and many similarities

[@kukumuniu5658]

Hi :) I have a problem, or maybe more of a situation solution of which is problematic for me. I live in a house with many more inhabitants than people and cat. The problem is that I cannot communicate with these beings I don't know what they want and what their role is, two of these beings are my ancestors driving away the ancestors by exorcism etc is probably the stupidest solution but there are other beings,(3 or 5) neither ex-humans nor ancestors. Do you know how to check it ? Confirm that someone is actually here and then determine what their role is and what they want :( I don't have mystical abilities to do things like this, there is any ritual that can unlock these abilities in us? Lucid Dreaming OOBE,seeing energies etc Simply make our magical rituals work, instead of being empty actions that cause no reaction (and all that remains is our belief that the ritual caused some change)

[@gaze505]

Does this way, or point of view, help us live with pain in illness or help us forgive those who hurt us?

[@JapaneseSalon]

We also need to train our mind and how we see things. We don’t want to welcome Pain, illness, negative experiences to our life, but during these period, we are growing spiritually. We help ourselves and purification practices help us to regulate our mind. We are the one who help ourselves, by regulating our own energy frequency. ☺️

What happens when you die according to shintoism?

[@orfeoassiti6669]

Shinto traditions lean heavily on the concepts of the presence of kami and there are three realms, one of them being the afterlife of humans. The spirit of everyone is released at the time of passing away. The spirits live in another world, the most sacred of which is called “the other world of heaven.” These other worlds are not seen as a paradise or a punishment. Instead the worlds are simply where the spirits reside. They can connect and visit the present world when people correctly perform rituals and festivals. Shinto says that the ancestral spirits will protect their descendants. The prayers and rituals performed by the living honor the dead and memorialize them. In return, the spirits of the dead offer protection and encouragement for the living.
