"Australia's own spiritual foundation. Free to join. Help us reach 8,000 members."
The Australian orthodox, it not a religion of a book, or ancient gods, it is the recognition of our ancestors, similar to Shinto tradition because it is rooted. It is not a religion of belief. It is a religion of place. Of ancestors. Of the land speaking.
"Orthodox" It means "right belief, right action, right thought, right way of living." It means there is a correct way to think, and act.
Shinto does not ask you to believe. It asks you to be present. To honour the land. To remember the ancestors. To keep the rituals that keep the world in balance.
The Southern Way, It as our home.
