Good video to illustrate shrine etiquette! I have the feeling that many foreign visitors are unsure whether it’s appropriate for them to pray at a Shinto shrine or not. I live near Ise Jingu, and I usually tell people that it’s no problem to pray there as long as they are respectful, since Shintoism isn’t an exclusive religion… (I hope I’m right… what do you think? 😅)
Shrines are beautiful but I can't go if doing this is mandatory. My religion isn't Shintoism but I do know non religious people in Japan still do this but it's still part of a religion
I think anyone that's not religious or believes in Shintoism should do this out of respect. I would just dress modestly and have good manners
@@naylisyazwina6836 I have a religion but I’d still pay my respects cause why not
@@vive335 because bowing and pray is an act of worship. In some religions, they're not allowed to imitate what people outside their religions do. If they do, for example, celebrating christmast just by wearing the hat or saying "Happy christmast" then they're considered as part of christian and no longer part of that religion group. If the act of respect is doing something else like, keep the place clean, don't be loud in it, don't talk with vulgar words, don't step on certain places, then they probably can do that.
@@naylisyazwina6836 Shrines are religious, obviously there's gonna be religious etiquette. If you aren't willing to do anything from a religion then obviously you shouldn't go to a shrine in the first place, even if they didn't have this etiquette.
I love how Japan has preserved it's culture.
Other Asian countries can’t do this because Japan invaded them, colonized them and destroyed everything.
Hi,I’m Japanese . I always thought it was obvious. Thanks for bringing this to my attention❤❤❤
I'll be waiting for you in Japan.😂😂
@@Boogiedogg-o7rYes. Under the present government we're doing that in india too because hinduism and shintoism is really similar and ancient yk what I mean ☺️. I'd wanna know what shintos think of hindus
What culture lmao?
Majority of humanity's well being comes from industrial revolution.
@@candy-jk7rkGo and bath in ponds.
A bit of background of this:
The original purpose of throwing money in that box is not donating to the shrine, but to clear yourself. According to tradition, metal coins have special power to absorb your sins and all the negative energy around you. When you’re carrying these coins, you also carried all the negative energies it has absorbed. To throw some coins into the shrine is to get rid of these negative energy, let the gods and spirits in the shrine clear them. This is why sometimes you can see this word “浄財 (clear-money)” written on shrine money boxes. In Japanese it has similar pronunciation as “浄罪 (clear-sin)”.
It reminded me of using silver teaspoon for the tea... I don't know if it's the culture of my nation or not but it was believed that silver makes tea cleaner and healthsome
Metal have meaning in every culture c:
@@LoneWolfMikoto silver is a type of metal very sensitive to toxins. Silver has been used by kings and nobles to examine if their food has been poisoned since ancient times. The practice of using silver teaspoon in your culture probably comes from that. If one day you see the spoon turns black, that means your tea has been poisoned.
@@QueSirDilla wow I didn't know that, that's interesting, thank you c:
@@LoneWolfMikoto glad you find it enjoyable;)
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but is it not pronounced *exactly* the same?
Girl:I am waiting for you to come in Japan
Me (from the end of the world):wait i am coming for 2 minutes...🤣

@@hi.7190 Why share here? Jesus is a nobody in other religions.
@Shiki * lol. That's what you think. But Jesus not existing in other religion is a fact.
Don't lose your religion to foreign missionary❤🇮🇳
I'm from India and it feels kinda similar
Like we bow, then ring the bell, then bow and pray to God then we bow again and then give some money
Yeah
Yes bro
Yeah
Ya but getting these ropes for the bells is not very common if the bell is at a height, which it always is and you have short height or as a kid we always had to jump high to ring the bell 😂

As a Japanese person I can confirm that this is accurate!! I'm so glad they are teaching good shrine etiquette!! Respect everyone no matter their race or gender or anything and have a good day. Remember that u are loved and special and a big part of some ppl's lives. I love u guys 💛💛💛
do you not realize that it’s literally shown on your profile that you’re from US?
also you say something about respect yet your description?..😂 Oh yeah, respect everyone no matter race or nationality, but not women, am I right? 😎

@Baker Banking your lord is a fraud and a master manipulator.
Let them believe in shintoism if they want to
I just can't believe that this is so similar to what we do here in india
It's obvious why it's similar to our Indian traditions
@@dOVERanalyst can you explain how it is obvious
@@ajithay In ancient Japanese, Hindu deities,Buddhism is revered. Shinto is also a philosophy, a way of life. It's about respecting natural elements nature just like Hinduism.
Where did Buddhism come from? India.
Who was Buddha?
Siddhartha, a Hindu.
It's all very interrelated. The older religion influenced many in neighbouring and close countries.
And lot of spiritual practices travelled & spread in East Asia.
Hinduism also believes in holy spirits, deities, divinities, holy powers, positive vibrations.
We also bow down, fold hands.
Clapping is done when we offer prasad. Naivaidya. When we offer food, offering, we clap
And the number of times.
The ghanti, the bell...
The spiritual cleansing before you enter..
All of it so similar!!
The guardian deities are of Indian Hindu origin.
Japanese Name: Naraen Kengo, *Sanskrit: Narayana*
Japanese Name : Raijin the Thunder God, Sanskrit Name : *Varuna*
Japanese Name: Nanda Ryu-o Sanskrit: Nanda Naga Raja
*Japanese Name: Basu* senin Sanskrit: Vasu

Please open your eyes to the truth... The god of hair is a false god that leads people to the gates of Hell.
Jesus Christ loves you and He died on the cross for your sins. Three days later, God raised Him from death. You no longer need to fear death because Jesus has defeated death. Once you die, it will be too late to repent. Jesus Christ is the only one who can save you from the fires of Hell REPENT and put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior today, we are not guaranteed tomorrow.
LUKE 13:3 REPENT OR PERISH.
I’m in Italy, here we have churches where, when you enter or pass by, you do what we call the “cross sign”.
Iside there’s also a candle stand where you insert a coin and lit a candle to make more light. It’s very cool, I love visiting different churches because they are all different from each other. I hope to visit Shinto shrines as well if I go to Japan!
Cool
If anyone watch noregami anime
You know that yato takes 5 yen to grant wish 🙃🙂
Yup
I watched 390 anime and Noragami is def top 20. I love anime that displays Shintoism aspects as long as it's engaging

I really recommend all of you go read the manga of the noragami. It's soooo good. Don't wait for an adaptation.

Her: I am waiting for you to come to Japan
My bank balance: nope
I've calculated, (with the help of a dude on tiktok who does things like this) that in order for me to have a great time in japan, I'll need around 10k. If I want to have a good time, the budget falls around 6k. If you go with a group, you might get better rates and could even stay at a traditional house and ve well within your budget. Since I rarely eat out, I included money for groceries.
If I find his tag, I'll give it to you
@@ttyngordonfor 10k, I'm assuming USD? You would be spending your stay in luxury. What makes you think you need 10k?
I remember as a kid visiting family in CA at the time. I was very young. There is a Japanese holiday/ tradition where kids of a certain age get all dressed up in traditional wear by their parents and you have to go climb the steps of the temple all by yourself and do something like this. I remember my aunt slapping this oversized blue kimono on me and wrangling my hair into these fun cloth Barretts and how scary it was going alone like that but once I saw all the other kids it felt a little less frightening. This video brought up that old weird memory, thank you.
I think it is 3/5/7 where kids are celebrated for making to that age and parents pray for their kids to continue growing up healthy and happy
CA as in California?
Shichi-go-san *never heard of the climbing part though* wife is japanese have x2 children did shichi-go-san just last year.
Somome please clarify
@@Nikku4211 yes, a bit near the arts district if I remember. Koyasan Temple in LA :)
Gratitude for sharing, this resonates with my soul. Blessings to you and I hope you have a good day.
Happy to see such close similarities between Japanese and Indian culture😃
We too bow, ring bell in our Hindu temples..
Visiting Shinto Shrines in Japan is one of my favourite things to do there⛩️ Actually, there are so many more steps to even get to the shrine🤓 Bow before going through Torii gate and not to walk in the middle of the gate, wash your hands and mouth, etc. But even if you don’t know all those steps, no need to be shamed or embarrassed😉 Just enjoy the atmosphere❤
Wait a second. In India we so the same. I swear Japan and India have some secret bond we don't know yet
It’s hinduism. I’m not Indian and I know that. Gotta reconnect with your roots my stranger friend. Have a blessed life
Buddhism, my friend. That's the bond.
I learned this tradition while watching shinchan... ❤️❤️.. all time fav
日本人から見ても、こういった作法などは本当に美しい
Instructions unclear, I'm now a Shounen Protagonist fighting Youkai. LOL
"Follow these steps to surprise your Japanese friends"
I feel like I'mma surprise my American family when we go visit Japan one day 🤷♂️
OMG THIS IS SOO CLOSE TO WHAT INDIANS DO WHEN THEY VISIT A TEMPLE!!
I mean Buddhism did come from India afterall so it makes sense that they have similar Templar practice
Yeah i guess so. But the only diffrence is Buddhism was founded by Buddha while Hinduism is like science. No one founded it and can only contribute to it. That is the uniqueness of Hinduism with the fact that it is the oldest and the most scientific religion in the world
@@dyutichakrabortty786 according to Google, Buddhism is the most scientific
@@nickeni3050 but it's Shintoism and Shintoism's 80% Gods are basically Hindu Gods so yea... :)
@Sameet Pattnaik never said it was completely scientific, but its values are most scientific
The shrine is beautiful ❤
Aaaaaah, I see now. There’s a horror game called “GOHOME” and I wondered what the girl at the start was doing with the shrine and also money hanging from the trees
I see a fellow GOHOME fan here 😏
omg I thought I was the only person who knew this game existed
I remember this From “The disastrous life of Saiki K” lol
yeah!!! same
Wow
Same!
Thanks for this. Never been in Japan, but I will. This kind of places I'd like to visit I were there. I highly respect for local tradition, people and culture.
My sister taught me this when we visited. We typically go to Japan every other year for months at a time but had to take a break due to COVID.
If you re religion is not Shinto, then don't pray to Shinto Kami.
ahhh that’s so cool :’)) i hope you have fun returning there, i wish i could go :((
Lucky, I would love to make the trip but probably won't be any time soon unfortunately. I hear it's pretty great. My husband wants to go because his dad (and mom) were stationed there many years ago and his older brother was actually born on the army base there. Also, he wants to climb Mt Fuji because his dad did.
This is correct for shrines, but for temples, the basic rule is to only bow with the hands together.
I am Japanese, but I frequently make mistakes in these rules😵💫
Thank you very much! I’m visiting Japan w my family and wanted to be as respectful as possible! (I’m currently studying folklore from around the world and I LOVE visiting places like this! The amount of active shrines is just amazing ❤)
finally reimu got some donations, i can't believe this
I cant wait to go,litteraly japan is my dream contry. I studied the language and legends too
this tutorial are really good,especially for someone who set their minds to go to japan!,thanks a lot for the video
Japan culture is kinda my favourite its just so ASTHETIC
cringe
I actually got so hooked up by the religion and the tradition of shinto when I was a teenager in Japan that I made a domestic shrine and, for my good fortune, whenever I needed luck for an exam/job interview it worked! I don't ask a lot and too much, offering always euros (since I live in Italy) and grappa (the Italian substitute for sake as by home-shrine tradition commands). I'll probably go this summer in s. Marino and pray the kami-Sama, if you need anything just ask (s. Marino has the first official shinto temple in Europe).
Really appreciate your effort to speak english 😊
Yes and her accent is very good. It’s still noticeable but she speaks very clearly. Remarkable. It must have taken a great deal of practice.
Wow. As a hindu, I have to say this iz very simillar to how we visit our temples. From donating money to rining the bell and pray, its nice to see similarities between distinct cultures.
They are the same religions. It combined with Japanese culture -shinto
Evolved in Indian culture-hindu
I have also been waiting to go to japan, I am still super bitter about the fact that they closed as soon as I bought a plane ticket to go 😭😭😭😭
What a vibrant smile! And thank you for this video. I'll keep it in mind
I will be 18 in **** weeks and at my birthday I will go to ✨japan✨
Japan is such a graceful place, If only I know the language s It be eassier to understand it better Xd

I hope to visit someday; as a Catholic its interesting to see how others express their spiritual beliefs 😊

3: Have an escape plan
@@Saffron_ be ready to do a nice-off if meeting a midwesterner
if i ever get the Chance to visit Japan. i will respect every single part of their culture. the Shinto Shrines i will be Respectful. Always Respect Japan's Culture.
Now i get why my countries call Japan "Jepang"
If you're of a religion that doesn't allow you to pray at a Shinto shrine, you can always hold your hands together as if you were praying but not actually pray. As an atheist, I felt disingenuous to do so, but I wanted to show my respect to the ceremony and shrine best I could.
@@sausuno The main thing is showing respect, the same way you'd hope someone not of your faith would respect a church. What to do depends on your particular denonination and the strictness of your "false idols" belief. As I say, if you clasp your hands but don't actually pray internally or externally, I'd consider that more a gesture of respect rather than an actual prayer. A prayer is where you submit your wishes and prayers to a higher power, not just holding your hands together.
As an American, this is very helpful. ありがとうございます。
And another one step, don't walk in the middle of stairs at Shrine.
Her: follows these steps to impress your Japanese friends.
Muslims: 😰😰
I am from India, First time Am seeing Japan Vlogs related to Culture in English. Love Your work Mam.. Love your every vlog.
Meanwhile in Romania: enter the church, make a cross. Walk up to an icon, make a cross and kiss it, then make another cross. Go to the next icon, make a cross, kiss it, go under it, come out the other way, then make a cross. Approach the altar, make a cross, kneel pray, get up make a cross, walk backwards 3 steps, make a cross and approach the exit of the church. Exit the church, turn towards the altar, make a cross and you're good to go. Japan is so complicated, i don't get it...
confirm
This sounds way more complicated-
@@mothbulb they were being sarcastic unless u were being sarcastic 😳
I think Romania needs to make a cross but I dunno 🤔/lh
Yeesh, that's a whole ass dance. With how many time you make a cross, I expect to hear some demons scream in agony when I'm done.
This may blow many peoples minds but you can pray to your Christian god or a non-God (atheism or ancestor worship) at a Shinto Shrine no problem. Possibly even encouraged. Shinto Shrines are holy places, so in Shinto there is no issue with you praying to “your” God. In Shinto the key is to express and act out the actual act of praying and having internal gratitude, the object of worship is not as important as you being there and praying l. That’s true shinto style. “Believing” in a specific God is actually not part of Shinto. It’s a “how” religion. Not a “what” or “why” religion.
As a filipino i love japan culture😊😊😊
Maaaann as a weeb i saw way too much anime that thought me how to do this 😅
Other than claps, this feels same as what we do at Hindu temples.
I am visiting Japan next year and I was nervous about visiting the shrines. This was very helpful. 🙏
I will come soon
As a japanese person, it upsets me to see that many tourists (especially from America) nowadays don't behave properly around our traditional monuments. Very rude.
don't care
I'm Australian. We have VERY different culture from Japan. I'm sure guests to your country make mistakes from ignorance, because it's very hard to find information on correct behaviour for foreigners.
I have been studying for several months to prepare to visit Japan, but I'm scared because the things I know of are not mentioned in any videos. My childhood friend's Nanna was from Hokkaido, she educated my friend a little bit, but that was 30 years ago when we were kids. I still remember how embarrassed my friend was from her social mistakes 😢
The mistakes are from ignorance like a child, not disrespect. People who travel to Japan have good honourable feeling towards Japan.
I have always been effectuated with India and Hindu Temple and Diety
.....but very recently I have become interested in Japanese culture, Shinto, Shinto Temple and Shinto Diety.
I am now learning how to pray 🙏 the Shinto Gods as well seeking there blessings ❤
This is so identical to hindu etiquette in temples.
I mean if any non Japanese is visiting Japan, obviously should follow their culture cause that's respectful.
no we are not required to follow their culture to respect it.
"lakum deenu kum wa li ad deen"

Japan is probably the most developed land which still keeps their pagan heritage, its crazy. Cool for them though
omg we do sonething similar here in india
Stemmed from Buddhism
@@UzumakiHarutoJP no , absolutely no. Hinduism is way older than buddha himself. Even before his birth
@@raghunandanjoshi1471 Shintoism isn't Hinduism
@@UzumakiHarutoJP buddhism was formed in Northern India around 600 B.C.
@@niceguy6549 yes but Shinto is not Hinduism. Every pagan religion is not Hinduism. I am sure you don't pray to Norse gods like Thor
Fun story, I was at a shrine at the base of Takao mountain and a local politely taught me how to do all of this just before I went and did it. I was really nervous but I ended up doing it right according to them, which made me really happy!
When someone visits a church I don't expect them to light a candle and pray if it is not their religion and they don't believe in it. They are free to walk around, check out the architecture, icons, art, take photos, in a quiet and civilized manner. And that's what I do in Japan. Sorry, I will not clap.
I got to visit some shrines in Japan. People do not care one bit if you don't anything shown in this video.
so, as a foreigner, you would behave based on what you judge to be right according to your cultural standards?
so let's say a foreigner comes to your church and says, I would never ask you to be silent if you came visiting my home country, and started moaning loudly in front of the altar, would that be ok?
Not sure I get you, man. It's not like you're going to be changing your religion. You're just participating in the culture.
@@greyngreyer5 well with Christianity for exsample, most denominations believe that is worshiping a false god which is against the first commandment. As a Christian it’s personally a no no for me because it’s basically saying that this god I don’t believe in deserves my praise in a similar matter to the God I actually believe in; which it doesn’t. But when I went to Japan people noticed I was a foreigner so they didn’t really care, no one looked at me weird or said anything. In fact people just smiled and waved or just minded there own business. It’s just, you can appreciate a Culture without conforming to it. Either way it doesn’t really matter if you do or don’t, I’ve never seen anyone get upset about it while in japan; or ever heard of any Japanese person being upset about it.
Of course, no one is saying you have to go up and make an offering. This is just an explanation of how to do it if you wanted to.
Roughly analogous to if taking sacrament was an open culture (as in, you didn't have to be part of the church officially to do so, and anyone who walked in could take part). Imagine if an outsider walked up and yoinked a wafer from the priest's tray without saying anything and then left. No one would be forcing them to take part, but they are still doing it in a way that is wrong and somewhat offensive. The video is just pointing out how to observe the practice correctly, without being disrespectful.
in my country we call it as "Syirik"
Lol i know about these shrines because of azumanga daioh! They are awesome
don’t forget to beatbox and tap dance for exactly 5 seconds.

教えてくれてありがとう！
Even if you believe in another religion, Shinto will not reject you as long as you do not insult or cause trouble.
Feel free to say hello to the old Japanese spirit enshrined there, saying, "Hello, I'm traveling to Japan."
If they welcome you, they may show you some small natural phenomenon.😊
I don't know much about foreign religions, but perhaps your religion's "pray" and Shinto's "pray" have different meanings.
A simple prayer at a shrine is "greeting". Mentally say hello, say where you are from, your name, and tell them why you're there.
Don't take it too seriously.
me a christian: mm good video 😊
Bro Japanese culture is so nice and sweet I love it so much
Me, a Christian my whole life: 😳😳

I like how we're all trusting a random person on the internet giving us advice about a culture 😂
Like for all we know, she might've just told us to do the worst possible things in a Japanese temple 😂😂
Hopefully if I ever do get to visit Japan I can use what I’ve learned from the culture. Although I suspect most of what I’m going to learn will be actively there. Such a beautiful country.
As a Christian I would never ever do such a thing

Dont do any of that. Jesus is the alpha and omega.
I only serve Jesus, I don’t worship any other Idol or God and will not bow to anyone else but the most high or give any money or food to a shrine. So no it’s not rude of me to bypass that.
I have the same mindset, too. Although I would love to visit Japan and their shrines, I won’t bow to something I don’t believe in.
@@EvanderAF same here , I guess it’s a culture clash unfortunately.
Just don't then
At Shinto shrines you can pray to any god or anything you’d like, they aren’t founded on specific gods. They’re spiritual spaces.
