About this audiobook
The Shinto religion is a mystery to many. There is no real founder, there are many gods and deities that are worshipped, and something about spiritualism and spirits in nature that most people can’t quite put their finger on.
Today, many of those confusions will be cleared up, as you will explore the Shinto faith and all its most important rituals, gods and goddesses, symbolism, etc.
A long list of divine beings and their purpose and tasks will be revealed, some background stories about the most famous once, and the history and legends of Japan’s gigantic mountain: Mount Fuji.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Dude! Buy this book! I am not kidding! It's awesome! I literally didn't see anything wrong about this book. If I am wrong, then let me know. But I found it to be nearly perfect, and that's what mattered to me. I almost missed this book, but I am actually glad that I found it anyway. It makes a lot of sense what the writer states, especially in the last handful of chapters, where the topic becomes a final thought.
