Koshintō

Koshintō

Koshintō o Ko-Shinto (古神道 Ko-Shintō?) es el nombre dado a la tradición pre-shinto original del pueblo jomon aún practicado hasta hoy en algunas comunidades del pueblo ainu, así como en algunas áreas de Ryukyu.

En este culto, la naturaleza y la humanidad están estrechamente entrelazadas y dios es una función o la totalidad de la naturaleza que se expresa en las entidades espirituales llamadas kamuy o kamui (shiji en Ryukyu). El koshinto otorga suma importancia en purificar alma y cuerpo. Se puede purificar el cuerpo al bañarse bajo una cascada, al regarse agua, a través de kokyu-ho (práctica de poder respiratorio) y de kotodama-ho (práctica de canto mágico). Diez mil años atrás el pueblo jomon habitó el archipiélago japonés. Cerca de 2500 años atrás el pueblo yayoi arribó del continente chino. Las dos culturas se mezclaron, propiciando las bases de la religión shinto.
