Editing Panentheism (section)

=== Konkōkyō ===
[[Konkokyo]] is a form of sectarian Japanese [[Shinto]] and a faith within the Shinbutsu-shūgō tradition. Traditional Shintoism holds that an impersonal spirit manifests/penetrates the material world, giving all objects consciousness and spontaneously creating a system of natural mechanisms, forces, and phenomena (Musubi). Konkokyo deviates from traditional Shintoism by holding that this spirit (Comparable to Brahman) has a personal identity and mind. This personal form is non-different from the energy itself, not residing in any particular cosmological location. In Konkokyo, this god is named "Tenchi Kane no Kami-Sama," which can be translated directly as "Spirit of the gilded/golden heavens and earth."

Though practitioners of Konkokyo are small in number (~300,000 globally), the sect has birthed or influenced a multiplicity of [[Japanese New Religions]], such as [[Oomoto]]. Many of these faiths carry on the Panentheistic views of Konkokyo {{citation needed|date=October 2021}}
