| Research Abstract |
I have had various field works and surveys to clarify the contemporary diversity of the Authenticity through the sacred ground tours of the elderly and disabled people with the support of the local people. I have attained certain outcomes of the possibilities of combined satisfaction of the people concerned. It was found out that their satisfaction was greatly promoted by the volunteers'supports, as well as by accessibility from the viewpoint of equipment and service in temples and shrines.
The outcome of this research was published in The Shinto culture of Mutual Supports(Masanari Itai, Kobun-Do, 2011), including other papers and presentations.
