Resumo

The present research has as object the religious institution Seicho-no-Ie do Brasil. It has a Japanese origin and it is seen as a contact zone that produces one of the variables of the Japanese Brazilian identities. It was found in Japan in 1930 by Masaharu Taniguchi and it was brought to Brazil by immigrants. Since the 1960‟s, it has lived an opening process to Brazilian public. We face that opening as a strategy that helped the involvement of sectors from Japanese colony with Brazilian society and therefore the building of Japanese-Brazilian identity based in religious utensil. The Seicho-no-Ie philosophy brings with itself elements of the Japanese official nationalism from the period before the II World War, symbolic arrangements which allowed the re-significance of forms related to Brazil, foundation myths and the nationalist speech developed by the Brazil‟s Military State. The Seicho-no-Ie do Brasil answered a necessity of involvement of the Japanese colony with the national society. In defining Brazil as True World Paradise , the religious expression dressed Brazil of representations from the Japanese culture, specialty related to hierarchy and cooperation with the government.
