Ethnoreligion - Shinbutso-shugo (EJF)

Ethnoreligion - Shinbutso-shugo is a part of the Ethnoreligion religion. Shinbutsu-shugo (???? syncretism of kami and buddhas) is the local expression given to a unique Japanese Folk Religion that mixes elements of Shinto and Buddhism. Though Shinto and Buddhism were formally separated by the 'shinbutsu bunri' policy enacted in 1868, temples and shrines that do not separate them are common and most Japanese people practice a mix of Shinto and Buddhism without seeing any contradiction.
