There are those who speak ill of others. They slander the Shinto and Buddhist religions. Imagine having children of which one became a Buddhist monk, one a Christian reverend, one a Shinto priest, another a government official, one a craftsman, and another a merchant. If someone slandered one of your children, would you, as a parent, feel happy?
When slandering others, you do not reflect Kami's heart. Buddha, Christ or any other founder of a religion are all Kami's beloved children.
There is no particular way to worship Kami. Just be sincere, conscientious, honest, and sincerely single-hearted.
Give thanks for being able to live from day to day and apologize for the irreverence, carelessness, and arrogance that you commit unknowingly. Then with sincerity, tell any personal requests that you may have to Kami.
