Additions to Shinto part of article

Hello. I am a student editor as a part of my World Religions course. I added some detail and information regarding the dynamics between Buddhism and Shinto. Please do point out anything that seems out of place or inaccurate. Potentially the latter part of my edit about the legitimacy of the emperor seems a little out of place for that section of the article? Kindly provide any feedback that you have, as this is my first contribution. Thank you for your patience and assistance.

Creation of new section: Hinduism

Hello! I'm a student that will be working on improving this article for my World Religions class. I plan to add a section for Hinduism as suggested before to compare it to Buddhism. I've created a quick bibliography with sources that I plan to use. Let me know if there are any suggestions.

Bibliography Leaf, Murray J. The Anthropology of Eastern Religions: Ideas, Organizations, and Constituencies. Lexington Books, 2014. The book is a reliable and verifiable secondary source by anthropologist Murray Leaf, where he analyzes and compares the beliefs and foundations of Eastern Religions, specifically of Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, and Shinto.

Harvey, Peter., and Peacock. Buddhism. Bloomsbury Publishing, 2001. This book by authors; Harvey, Peter, and Peacock is a secondary source which discusses only Buddhism and focus on its beliefs and traditions. The source provides context for Buddhism in order to accurately compare it to Hinduism.

Knott, Kim. Hinduism. Oxford University Press, 1998. Knott’s book provides a general introduction to Hinduism, examining its effects on society and the core through traditions and sacred texts. The secondary source is essential to understand Hinduism and its relationship with Buddhism and role in the East.

Mann, Richard D. “Material Culture and the Study of Hinduism and Buddhism.” Religion Compass, vol. 8, no. 8, Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2014, pp. 264–73 The peer reviewed secondary source by author Richard Mann analyzes the history of material culture between Hinduism and Buddhism. The interaction that is created within the material culture discussed gives a direct example of the relationship the two religions have and how they may be similar.

Added capitalization to the word "Buddhist." Lunarmoon13 (talk) 05:34, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am planning to expand this article, by lengthening the Lead, and lengthening/copyediting the flow of the Taoism section. I will be adding a few citations to support the facts I plan to insert. Lunarmoon13 (talk) 21:37, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have added my updated, final contributions to the article for this assignment. In total, I changed two sections: the Lead, and the Taoism section. I lengthened both sections with new facts, and included new sources. Lunarmoon13 (talk) 06:48, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
