  Tenrikyo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Tenri is the largest of the 'old' (19th century) new religions.
Over the years Tenrikyo has engaged in an ambitious construction programme at its Tenri headquarters with the intention of completely surrounding the jiba (the central place of revelation) with grand buildings to house and teach devotees, in accordance with Miki's prophecies.
The complex of great buildings at the centre of Tenri city itself comprise the main symbol of the Tenri faith, since this spot, known as jiba, is believed to be the centre of the world, where creation began and will end, and where Miki received the revelation of Tenri-o-no-mikoto.
