In Shinto, shintai (神体 body of the kami ), or goshintai (御神体 sacred body of the kami ) when the honorific prefix go- is used, are physical objects worshiped at or near Shinto shrines as repositories in which spirits or kami reside. Shintai used in Shrine Shinto (Jinja Shinto) can be also called mitamashiro (御霊代 spirit replacement or substitute ).
