This political support furthered the mixing of religious beliefs in Japan, since the emperors were also the highest functionaries in the national religion, Shinto.* Soon it became common to read the Buddhist sutras before shrines of the Shinto kami spirits. It became a common practice to count the kami among those beings who—like humans—could find salvation through Buddhist prayer and ritual.
