The book delves into the history, beliefs, practices, and rituals of the Kurozumi Sect, which is known for its emphasis on healing and divination. Hepner draws on a wide range of sources, including primary texts, historical records, and fieldwork observations, to present a detailed account of the sect's development and evolution over time. The book also examines the role of the Kurozumi Sect in contemporary Japanese society and its ongoing impact on Shinto practice and belief. Overall, The Kurozumi Sect of Shinto is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in Japanese religion, culture, and history.1935. In 1912 Hepner was ordained and commissioned by the Board of Foreign Missions of The United Synod South as a Missionary to Japan. During his tenure there he acquired an unusual facility both in speaking and reading Japanese. Within a few years, he decided on Shinto as his special field of study and thus began the study that lead to this publication. This volume contains Hepner�������s dissertation on the Kurozumi Sect, which introduces academic circles of the Occident to the Culture Religion State of Shinto, and makes a valuable contribution in the field of Comparative Religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
