Overview[edit]
Around 1868, at the beginning of the Meiji Restoration, the religious administration of the new Meiji government issued the Shinto-Buddhist Separation Order, resulting in the Haibutsu Kishaku and the restoration of the Unity of ritual and government system in the same year. The Taikyo Institute was established in 1872 (Meiji 5) as a missionary organization, but was dissolved in 1875 (Meiji 8). Instead, the Shinto side established the Bureau of Shinto Affairs in the same year, to which the originally disparate folk belief religions belonged, and those denominations that met certain conditions, such as the number of followers, were officially recognized as "independent denominations". This was the beginning of the denominational Shinto.
Beginning with Kurozumikyō and Shinto Shusei in 1876 (9th year of Meiji), and in 1886, Bureau of Shinto Affairs (later renamed Shinto Taikyo), and in 1899 (32nd year of Meiji), it was reorganized into a denomination called Jingu-kyo renamed Ise Shrine Offering Association.[2][lower-alpha 1] In 1908, Tenrikyo was founded, and by the time of 1908, there were a total of 13 schools (14 schools in total if the breakaway "Jingu-kyo" is included).
| Denomination | Founder | Founding date | Date of Independence | believers[3] | Priests[3] | Shrines and churches[3] |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fuso-kyo | Shishino Nakaba | May 1882 | 31,150 | 425 | 135 |
After the war, Oomoto also joined the federation, but Tenrikyo and Shinto Taiseikyo withdrew from the federation, so the federation now has 12 affiliated groups.
There are five main groups of Sect Shinto[4]
- The Fukkoshinto or Revival Shinto lineage includes Shinto Taikyo, Shinrikyo, and Izumo-taishakyo, which originates from Izumo Taisha.[4]
- Confucian Shinto is represented by Shinto Taiseikyo (神道大成教) and Shinto Shusei.[4]
- The Mountain worship lineage includes Jikkō kyō, Fuso-kyo, and Ontake-kyo.[4]
- Purification sects are Misogikyo and Shinshu-kyo.[4]
- Utopian groups are Kurozumikyō, Tenrikyo, and Konkokyo.[4]
Tenrikyo is now classified by the Agency for Cultural Affairs as one of the various religions, not as a Shinto denomination. [5]
