Adherents of several hundred groups known as "new religions"
include roughly one-third of the Japanese population, but these
movements remain largely unstudied in the West. To account for
their general similarity, Helen Hardacre identifies a common world
view uniting the new religions. She uses the example of
Kurozumikyo, a Shinto religion founded in rural Japan in 1814, to
show how the new religions developed from older religious
organizations. Included in the book are a discussion of counseling
that portrays the many linked functions of rural churches, an
autobiographical life history by a woman minister, and a case study
of healing.
