About koshintō

Ko-Shintō (古神道) refers to the animist religion of Japan before Buddhism and other foreign religions like Confucianism. Koshinto is the alleged basis of modern Shinto. The search for traces of Koshintō began with the "Restoration Shinto" in the Edo period, whose goal was to remove any foreign ideas and worldviews from Shinto. Some movements which claim to have discovered this primeval way of thought are Oomoto and Izumo-taishakyo.
