AbstractThe traditional religions in Japan have always occupied a special place in the social order. Shrine Shinto, Japan's aboriginal religion, is a community-based religion, and in agricultural society it enjoyed a position of security and excercised a unique social function. Buddhism, which originally stressed enlightenment of the individual, became in Japan a religion devoted to rituals for ancestors and supported the primacy of the family as the unit of social life.
