Shenism

Shenism is a traditional Chinese spiritual practice focusing on honoring spirits, ancestors, and deities to maintain harmony between humans and the spiritual world. It involves rituals, offerings, and festivals to seek blessings, protection, and guidance. Rooted in ancestral reverence, Shenism emphasizes balance and respect for natural and spiritual forces. Unlike organized religions, it often functions as a community's cultural tradition rather than a formal doctrine, blending ancestor worship, local deities, and cosmic principles to preserve social harmony and well-being.
