Home›Chronicles›TraditionBrowse ByTraditionThis page groups scripture texts by the tradition that treats them as central. Wikipedia notes that in some non-theistic religions "such as some Indian religions they are considered to be the central tenets of their eternal Dharma," a different basis for sacredness than divine revelation. Browsing by tradition lets a visitor read every text central to one religion together.FactsTraditionSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedScriptures & Texts 1TraditionFilter Results2 entriesBasis of the Membership FigureAllChurch-Reported Rolls (1)Date of Separation End YearAll1908 (1)1946 (1)Date of Separation Start YearAll1868 (1)1876 (1)GovernanceAllAutonomous local bodies under a national umbrella association (1)No central authority (1)Priestly office passing by descent (1)Liturgical LanguageAllClassical Japanese (2)The vernacular (1)Membership Figure As OfAll2020-01-01 (1)OrdinationAllOffice passes by descent (1)Open to women and men (1)Varies between provinces or member bodies (1)Origin Period End YearAll1908 (1)1946 (1)Origin Period Start YearAll1868 (1)1876 (1)Place of OriginAllJapan (1)The Japanese archipelago (1)Relation to the StateAllDisestablished (1)No Establishment (1)Status TodayAllHistorical; not practised continuously (1)Living tradition, practised today (2)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSect ShintoTradition2 entriesShrine ShintoTradition2 entriesSources1.
