Amaterasu Omikami is considered to be a gentle harmonizing presence and symbol of the myriads of kami. She blesses everybody indiscriminately with serene light. One can say that Japan is one of the few countries in the world where modernization and great economic growth have been achieved while the traditional deities, with Amaterasu Omikami as spiritual center remain important in people's lives.

But Amaterasu Omikami does not have the character of the absolute God of Christianity. She is described as a symbol for the myriads of kami, and as the one who brought great harmony to heaven and earth. Our ancestors lived with awe and respect towards the kami. Shinto, the indigenous religion of Japan, is based on these concepts of kami. The ancient Japanese believed in numerous kami, their multitude is expressed by the number eight million.

The basis of Shinto faith is the consciousness that nature and human beings are united firmly through the kami. This consciousness is expressed in the ritual forms of worshiping the kami. Among the many Shinto sanctuaries in Japan, Ise Jingu is the supreme and offers spiritual support for the Japanese in times of confusion. The kami of Ise Jingu is Amaterasu Omikmai, the supreme deity, who is not only the ancestor of the Imperial Family, but also the kami that gave rice to the people, as described in Japanese mythology.
