History

“	Those tasked with the all-important role of maintaining Shinto shrines and performing ceremonies and rituals are known as shinshoku (male priests) or saishu (supreme priestesses). These sacred custodians of the thousands of Shinto shrines across Japan are trained by the Jinja Honcho (Association of Shinto Shrines) before being assigned to a shrine or temple.	”
