At present, it is estimated that more than ten percent of Japans total population are members of the so-called New Religions. While Buddhist and Shintoist influences remain pronounced, there are many other features common to modern Japans popular religious thinking. Through a careful study of these features, the author examines classical concepts and theories of religious studies, proposes alternative approaches, and reconsiders religion in modernity in the context of Japanese cultural heritage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susumu Shimazono\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1876843136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781876843137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Trans Pacific Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.90d","brand":"Susumu Shimazono","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981753385215,"sku":"9781876843137","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfdb8210-a7c7-4ab9-a72e-f0ee143144e9.jpg?v=1683257345","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-salvation-to-spirituality-susumu-shimazono-9781876843137","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
