Japanese Shintoist organization established by Meiji officials in 1873

Shintō Taikyō (神道大教), formerly called Shinto Honkyoku (神道本局), is a Japanese Shintoist organization, and was established by Meiji officials in 1873.[1] It is recognized officially,[2] and its headquarters are in Tokyo.[3] It has many shrines,[4] and Tenrikyo used to be under its jurisdiction.[5]

It is one of the thirteen shinto sects.[6][7] It used to be very influential but its influence diminished and continues to diminish due to the prevalence of powerful sects such as Tenrikyo and Izumo-taishakyo.[8]

Its name Taikyo refers to the Three Great Teachings first proclamed in the Proclamation of the Great Doctrine.[9] and it is linked to the historical Great Teaching Institute

Three Great Teachings[edit]

The organization follows these Three Great Teachings dating back to the Proclamation of the Great Doctrine[10]

  1. respect for the gods, love of country;[11][10]
  2. making clear the principles of Heaven and the Way of Man;[11][10]
  3. reverence for the emperor and obedience to the will of the court.[11][10]
