Shinto is the way of living in harmony with Great Nature. Shinto is optomistic, pure, simple, and bright and an expression of the “flow of life”. Our human lives, received from Great Nature and our ancestors are essentially good – obscuring energies exist but through the purifying (harae), straightening (naobi), and invigorating (kiyome) action of Shinto we can prevent misfortune or move towards solution if misfortune has already occured.

The Shinto Shrine is an enhanced natural environment. As Shinto has the continious history from prehistoric times to the present and into the future, visiting the Shinto Shrine can help reconnect us to our primal intuitive roots while helping us to meet the challenges of the present and future.
