Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

How was the fusion of Shinto and Buddhism introduced, developed, and established in Japan, and what kind of uniqueness was acquired in the process? From the foundation of Jinguji Temple and the thought that supported it to the establishment of the mountain worship, the idea of Kishin (God of Spirits), and the theory of Honji Suijaku, we examined in detail the multi-layered fusion process of Buddhism and divine belief. We reconsidered Japanese religion from the perspective of world history.
