Kamayashiro - Izumo

This is the Keshe.

Located on the east side of the main shrine, it enshrines the god of food. The son of Susanoo-no-Mikoto.

I don't know ~? What is Kamasha! It feels like Al's in prison! ! ?

The god of Kama no Yashiro is a child of “Susano Onomikoto”, and it is written as “Unomino-tama-kami”, written as “Uno-no-Omi-kami”. This god of festival is the god who governs food, and is also called “the god of food”. It is famous as the god of the same body as the “Toyoike Omikami” in the outer shrine of Ise Jingu Shrine or the main festival god “Inari Daijin” at Inari and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrines throughout the country. By the way, “Unoyuki soul god” is considered a goddess (female god). On the night of November 23rd, at the Kodenshinsai, held in the hall of worship, the potter will move the pot to the worship hall and the “Okama Shrine” will be held. Koden Shinsetsu Festival is a festival that revives Izumo Kunizo's spiritual power, and thanks to the “Okama Shrine” where the priesthood circulates around the kettle, and a prayer for a good harvest next year (Pray) Kamasha was founded in the middle of the Edo period (General: Tokugawa family) in 1667 (Kanbun 7). In addition, Izumo Taisha shrines have many buildings that were built at the same time as the national treasure's main shrine, so it is a valuable asset that conveys the history and methods of building and maintenance methods for the mid-Edo period. As a document, it is said that the value is very high. For this reason, it was designated as a national important cultural property on July 6, 2004. This pottery is very similar to the structure of the gate shrine, but in this pottery, the lantern and the rim surround the main building where the sacred body is enshrined. In Buddhist architecture, you can see that the shrine is lifted up by the main shrine without using the dough, whereas it is a structure that uses dough. The personality of the Monjin Shrine is similar to that of the Kama Shrine, and the fact that the balustrade and edge are set only for the Kama Shrine shows its importance. Can be considered. However, another way of thinking is that the god that was enshrined at the Kamasha in the Edo period is another god. It is not the time when the current Buddha was separated, but the time when the Buddha was trained, so there is nothing strange even if the festival gods are different.

Visited on July 23, 2020. One of Setsumatsusha. Ukanomitama god of rituals Also known as Ukemochi no Kami, it is the presiding god of food in general. There is a venerable bill, so please read that for details.

I worshiped from around 8:30 in the morning. The number of worshipers started to increase and they lined up a little ^ ^ Although it depends on the season and time, Kamasha worships eastward, so I worshiped Ukanomitama god divinely (^^)

What is Kamayashiro? Has the name been changed? Originally, it would be appropriate to enshrine Izanagi God here, because the Ukemochi God is Kurana God or Toyoda Himegami, it is enshrined in another place, why did this happen? It would be a nuisance to the god if he was too obsessed with Kojiki and Nihon Shoki and changed the original way of worshiping from ancient times. It is a place where I ran away in search of, and I feel that the times have come down and I do not understand the form of the god enshrined on the right side and the god enshrined on the left side.
