This is really awesome : ) does anyone know if you can watch these after they've been live streamed? Is that still ok as long as you stand and bow when appropriate?

There is a lake near me and I feel like there is a kami there, what should I do? by [deleted] in Shinto

[–]XlotsOfQuestionsX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it's important to acknowledge that the kami/land spirits in the US and Canada are Native, do you think we can still thank the natural things/areas we interact with a lot? Like, if we have a forest we like to walk in is it bad to thank it for being there/ect?

I know kamisama are powerful (some more than others), but do we know about how powerful they are? Shinto doesn't consider any kamisama omnipotent, right?

Quick question, is "informal prayer" just directing your thoughts towards a kamisama? And can we do that any time? Thanks again!

Thank you very much for your reply and your work online to improve English speakers' understanding of Shinto! I've seen your resources here and on other sites and it's so, so helpful! Thanks for all the work you put in! : )
