Answer
Ōmoto-kyō, the Shinto sect that Morihei Ueshiba joined, is a new religious movement founded in the late 19th century. Ōmoto-kyō's teachings emphasize the importance of spiritual purity and the direct experience of the divine. Ueshiba was drawn to Ōmoto-kyō's emphasis on physical and spiritual training, and he incorporated many of its principles into the martial art of aikido, which he founded.
