Oomoto (大本, literally "foundation"), also known as Omoto-kyo (大本教) or similar Omoto, is a Japanese religion, often categorized as a new Japanese religion and offshoot of Shinto.
It is commonly thought that Ueshiba's increasing attachment to pacifism in later years and belief that Aikido should be an "art of peace" were inspired by his involvement with the sect.
Oomoto priests oversee a ceremony in Ueshiba's honor every April 29th at the Aiki Shrine at Iwama.

In 1898, Oomoto Co-Founder Onisaburo Deguchi received divine instructions to spend a week in spiritual training on the sacred Mountain of Takakuma, located in his hometown of Kameoka, Kyoto Prefecture.
Consequently, what is called the First Oomoto Incident took place in 1921, upon which Oomoto, its activities and adherents were greatly suppressed by the Japanese government.

 Martial Arts Planet Archive - O Sensei And The Oomoto Sect
P.S. O Sensei was not an old man when involved in Oomoto - he developed his close involvement when at his strongest and fittest in his 30's when his technical aikido was very hard-style and certainly not an old man's ki-based system.
The Oomoto religion is one level of abstraction further removed from technique than music theory is (for example) from playing an instrument.
I think Oomoto was important to O Sensei but I'm not convinced that it helped him form aikido - I picked it as an example of stuff very few aikidoka would know about, not because of its great importance.

 Speech to the Omoto people
I believe that God, the Almighty, has prepared these meetings which began with Moscow in January 1990, at the Global Forum Conference, followed by the meeting in Kameoka the same year, then the meetings in April and May 1991 in Damascus and the holy cities of Makkah and Madinah in Saudi Arabia.
I believe that the Divine Providence is planning these meetings and pushing us to attend them, because Oomoto enjoys deep, pure and devoted faith in God, the Omnipotent, and in His Prophets and Messengers, far from all superstitions and all that sound reason rejects.
Since Oomoto enjoys a sincere desire to reach the clear and absolute truth, wherever it can be found, it has been the will of God to make this meeting about Islam possible.
