is a Japanese martial art which is considered as a modified version of Shaolin Kung Fu. It was established in 1947 by , a Japanese martial artist and former military intelligence agent. Shorinji Kempo is a system of "self-defense training" (護身錬鍛: ''goshin-rentan''), "mental training" (精神修養: ''seishin-shūyō'') and "promoting health" (健康増進: ''kenkō-zōshin''), whose training methods are based on the concept that "spirit and body are not separable" (心身一如: ''shinshin-ichinyo'') and that it is integral to "train both body and spirit" (拳禅一如: ''kenzen ichinyo''). Through employing a well-organized technical training schedule (科目表: ''kamoku-hyō''), Shorinji Kempo claims to help the practitioner "establish oneself" (自己確立: ''jiko-kakuritsu'') and to promote "mutual comfort" (自他共楽: ''jita-kyōraku''). The philosophy and techniques of Shorinji Kempo are outlined in their handbook, (少林寺拳法教範) ''Shōrinji-kempō-kyōhan''. ==Organization== The organization of Shorinji Kempo group is divided into 5 entities: * Religious entity (金剛禅総本山少林寺: Kongō-zen Sōhon-zan Shōrinji), * Foundation entity Shorinji Kempo Foundation Federation(一般財団法人少林寺拳法連盟: Ippan-zaidan-hōjin Shōrinji-kempō Renmei), * Educational entity Zenrin Gakuen College(学校法人禅林学園: Gakkō-hōjin Zenrin Gakuen), * Global entity World Shorinji Kempo Organization, WSKO (少林寺拳法世界連合: Shōrinji-kempō Sekai Rengō), * Intellectual property entity (Shorinji Kempo Unity). The relationship between these five entities is very close because of the unique fusion of religion, ''budo'' and education.
