Animism is the belief in a supernatural power that organizes and animates the material universe. It is derived from the Latin word anima meaning breath or soul. Edward Burnett Tylor believed Animism is a belief in spiritual beings and a definition of religion. Tylor states that in order to understand religion you have to first come up with a definition of religion. He says that most people provide a narrow definition such as a belief in a supreme deity or judgment after death, the adoration of idols, or the practice of sacrifice, or other partially diffused doctrines or rites.

Hinduism also focuses on supernatural powers through God and how each individual has a pre-relation to their soul as they are entered into the world. This has also made a relationship to the after life of the person after death and the effect of karma. Any practitioner of a religion has to fully commit and respect the religion in all ways of practice: fasting, dressing, everyday life, etc.

Which religion is did not originate in India?

If you wish to define religion as: a belief in, and worship of, supernatural entities, then almost every culture in the world has religious beliefs of some description.Here are some examples sourced from Wikipedia:Celtic polytheism, commonly known as Celtic paganism,[1][2][3] refers to the religious beliefs and practices adhered to by the Iron Age peoples of Western Europe now known as the Celts,Hinduism is the predominant and indigenous religious tradition[1] of South Asia. Hinduism is often referred to as Sanātana Dharma (a Sanskrit phrase meaning "the eternal law") by its adherentsEast Asian religions (also known as Far Eastern religions, Chinese religions, or Taoic religions) form a subset of the Eastern religions. This group includes Caodaism, Chen Tao, Chondogyo, Confucianism, Jeungism, Shinto, Taoism, I-Kuan Tao and elements of Mahayana Buddhism.There are many many more, the Incas, Aztecs, Native Americans, Mayans, Polynesians, Africans all held there own religious beliefs. Of course most religions denounce other people's beliefs as mumbo jumbo even though worshipping the 'Crocodile God of the Limpopo' is no more ridiculous (or his existence less probable) than the Christian or Muslim ideas of God.

Who is ichigo?

Ichigo is a subsitute shinigami (or substitute soul reaper in the English adaption) after he met Rukia. He is 15 years old at the start of Bleach and has orange hair. Ichigo is the main character/protaganist of the hit anime/manga series, Bleach, aired mon-thurs at 12:30 am on adultswim on cartoonnetwork EST. His name means his age, as ichi is Japanese for 1 and go is means 5, though the Japanese wording changes for fifteen, as it is not normally broken up into a 1 and a 5. Ichigo means 15, Because of his immense spiritual energy, he can spot these hollow demons without receiving any training, though he soon meets up with shingami (god of death in Shinto) that comes from another world, called the soul society. This warrior is a girl by the name of rukia, and she is stuck down by trying to protect him from a hollow, and in order for them to survive, she has to let him borrow some of her powers to fight it, which he does. When the transfer is complete, his spiritual pressure explodes and takes nearly all of her powers, because he is much more powerful than she is, though she has been trained in these arts, and not him. His sword resembles that of Cloud in final fantasy 7 as it is a buster sword, though without a sheath, which for shinigami, is not normal, as shinigami swords, called zanpakto (zahn-pak-toe), are supposed to be unleashed (initial release) and their ultimate power is bankai, which takes hundreds of years to achieve normally, though ichigo gets special treatment. This "shinigami loan" is penalized by death in the soul society, and soon one of the 13 captains, the girl named Rukia's adopted brother Byakuya (bee-ya-cue-ya) Kutchiki (cooch-kee), Byakuya comes to take her back to prison, accopanied by Rukia's childhood friend, Renji Abarai, who ichigo's rival, Uryu Ishida (urr-ree-you ee-sheed-ah) fights as well as ichigo before ichigo gets the upper hand on Renji and is upstaged by byakuya. Ichigo Kurasaki has such spiritual power that it rubs off on his friends, orihime (or-ree-hee-me) and chad, who later train simulataneously, though not in the same place, to retrieve rukia for helping ichigo. Uryu ishida is a spiritual archer, or Quincy in this anime. He trains with his glove heirloom, which he masters, as he thinks that he is the last of his clan (like sasuke uchiha thinks in the naruto universe). The man that trains ichigo at this time, (Mr. hat and clogs as ichigo calls him in the English version/dub, though his real name is Kisuke Urahara, a much revered dude in the soul society) has a few students with him and they help train ichigo's sister karin (ka-reen) as she is like a lil ichigo with the same rash cynical attitude and same chip on her shoulder, but she has some ability too. You forget to mention his zanpakuto "zangetsu" (slashing moon)


What happend in the last series of sailor moon?

SPOILER ALERT. In the first few episodes of the final season of Sailormoon, Queen Nehelenia, who the sailor senshi thought was sealed away, is released and tries to take her revenge on Sailormoon for imprisoning her by kidnapping Mamoru (Darien). It is during this fight with Nehelenia that Super Sailormoon receives her new transformation into Eternal Sailormoon. Sailormoon returns Nehelenia to her normal state as the child queen of the Black Moon and all seems well. In the next episode Mamoru leaves for America to do research at a university there. He does not show up again until the final episode, except to show that he did not arrive at the university because he was killed by Galaxia, the main villain, before the plane even landed. As Usagi (Serena) is saying bye to Mamoru, we meet the Three Lights, as popular singing group comprised of three high school boys: Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten. These three enroll in school with the inner senshi and end up being the female Sailor Starlights (Sailor Star Fighter, Sailor Star Maker, and Sailor Star Healer) that come to aid the inner senshi throughout the season. Seiya, Sailor Star Fighter, falls in love with Usagi. The main villain, Galaxia, is after all the true star seeds (little crystals that only sailor senshi have) in the galaxy so that she can rule the entire galaxy. In accomplishing this goal, she uses the senshi from other star systems whose star seeds she has already captured to go out and check for star seeds on earth. The minor villains underneath Galaxia are named Sailor Iron Mouse, Sailor Aluminum Siren, Sailor Lead Crow, and Sailor Tin Nyanko. Both the inner senshi and the outer senshi show up fairly often through out the duration of the season, but not as much as the Sailor Starlights. The Sailor Starlights and the outer senshi do not get along. Chibi Chibi, a mysterious little girl, also shows up in the last half of the season, along with the Starlight's princess, Princess Kakyuu, who dies during her second episode. **MAJOR SPOILERS.** In the many-episode-long final battle, all of the senshi end up confronting Galaxia at her throne in different groups. All of the inner senshi have their star seeds taken and die as Saiormoon watches, while Sailor Pluto and Sailor Saturn have their star seeds taken by a Neptune and Uranus that have decided to join Galaxia's side. Neptune and Uranus beat Sailormoon and the starlights up a bit before turning on Galaxia and trying to steal her star seed, only to find out that she doesn't have one. Neptune and Uranus die, and eventually the situation gets so desperate that the light of hope (Galaxia's star seed that she sent out into the galaxy before she was evil and that would allow her to be overcome in the case of her turning evil) is awakened in Chibi Chibi and she turns into a sword, which Sailormoon is supposed to use to kill Galaxia, but Galaxia cuts the sword in half because of Sailormoon's hesitation, so in the final episode, Sailormoon uses the Ginzuishou (Silver Crystal) to purge Galaxia of the evil that has taken her over. Galaxia is then charged with returning all of the star seeds she collected to their former homes. All of the senshi, as well as Mamoru, then come back to life and comfort Usagi after the final battle. The Starlights leave for their own planet with their princess, and the final episode ends with Usagi and Mamoru kissing in the moonlight, with peace achieved at last.
