å°éç §åŽç¥ç€Ÿ Ono Terusaki shrine Enshrined deities: å°éç¯ Takamura Ono & è åéç Michizane Sugawara Michizane Sugawara is the god of learning and performing arts. The shrine is part of the eight shrine pilgrimage (for good fortune) äžçºå «ç€ŸçŠåããªã©ã®ã³ãŒã¹ Shitamachi Hachisha Fukumairi. Within the relatively small shrine precincts: å¯å£«æµ éç¥ç€Ÿ Fuji Asama Jinja, äžè°·åæ¬ã®å¯å£«å¡ Shitaya Sakamoto no Fujizuka (surrogate Mt. Fuji open on 30 June & 1 July), 埡嶜ç¥ç€Ÿ Mitake Jinja & äžå³°ç¥ç€Ÿ Mitsumine Jinja, çŽå¹³ç¥ç€Ÿ Kotohira Jinja, åºç³å¡ Koshinzuka (remnants of the original shrine), çš²è·ç¥ç€Ÿ Inari Jinja & ç¹å§«ç¥ç€Ÿ Orihime Jinja, ç¥æ¥œæ®¿ (Kaguraden) 匷çãªåªåã®ç¢ (KyÅretsuna doryoku no ishibumi) Monument of intense effort Most of the subsidiary shrines have separate entries in Google maps. There is a small stone bridge and a pair of covered lanterns before the main entrance torii. When I visited, there were three cats conspicuously lounging in sunny areas of the precincts.
To expand upon the åºç³å¡ KÅshin zuka. KÅshin (åºç³) or KÅshin-shinkÅ (åºç³ä¿¡ä»°) is a folk belief in Japan with Taoist origins, influenced by Shinto, Buddhism and other local beliefs. The followers of the åºç³è¬ (KÅshin-kÅ) KÅshin faith have a special devotion to the day (sunrise to sunrise) of the åºç³ metal monkey in the iterative 60 day cycle based on the five elements and the twelve animal zodiac. On the night defined as KÅshin, äžå°ž/äžè«(è²) (sanshi/sanchÅ«) three worms also translated as insects or corpses, believed to dwell in a person's body, ascend to heaven while their host sleeps. The å€©åž Emperor of Heaven, apprised by the worms of the host's transgressions during the previous cycle, deducts a certain number of days from the person's life for each misdeed. This belief led to the Japanese custom of staying up all night, ãåºç³åŸ ã (kÅshin-machi) [hang on]/ãå®åºç³ã (mori kÅshin) [protect], to prevent the worms from leaving the body to report on their hosts. Those worshiped during the all night party are: å€©åž (Tentei), the aforementioned Emperor of Heaven; ç¿ç°åœŠ (Sarutahiko), the patron of martial arts and bringer of world peace; 銬é èŠ³é³ (BatÅ [horse head] Kannon), principal deity of rituals that subjugate evil people and enemies (usually three faces and eight arms, crown with horse's head); and éé¢éå (ShÅmen [blue faced] KongÅ), one of the çŸ å¹å€© (rasetsuten) rakshasa lords (Rakshasas are a race of malevolent demons or goblins in Hindu mythology that have supernatural powers and often use them for evil). They also revered the trio of wise monkeys: ð èŠãã (mizaru) "See no evil", ð èããã (kikazaru) "Hear no evil", ð èšããã (iwazaru)...

   Read moreI really like this shrine, although it's not big, it's a lovely little refuge in the middle of the city. I even had the luxury of seeing a few cats, one was very affectionate! This shrine offers beautiful Goshuin, if you check their website you can see what's on offer and they change the design monthly! I definitely recommend that you make the effort to go and see it. It wasn't super busy but it also wasn't empty. I have visited on both a weekday...
