Shiratama Inari Daimyojin - Shibuya City

It is Inari in the corner of a residential area. The torii is beautiful.

Inari Shrine has a lot of torii gates everywhere

It is also called Sekiseki Inari Daimyojin. The shinboku that pierces the roof of the shrine is impressive. Also, for a small shrine, there are many dedication torii gates.

2017/10/1 Shiratama Inari Shrine is a little behind the Yoyogi Post Office. Well where the torii gate is 5 (laughs) It is made in a small site. It may be disappointing that the atmosphere is a little unmaintained.

It seems that this area used to be Yoyohata Village together with Hatagaya. In addition, Hatagaya seems to have spread to around Yoyogi and Nakano Shimbashi. After all, I think that this area was a grouper village in ancient times. In other words, Hatagaya's Hata is Hata, and Mr. Hata's roots in Tokyo seem to be in Sagami-Hadano. They are the ancestors of Yuzuki, who was naturalized by leading the people of Baekje in the Ojin dynasty of the 3rd century. Mr. Shimazu of Kyushu seems to be in the same flow. Speaking of Mr. Shimazu, Shimazu Nariakira, who is involved in the origin of the Hinomaru, is famous. The ancient Toshimas are also from Kyushu. Mr. Edo and Mr. Shibuya came out from Mr. Toshima It is said that Mr. Toshima solicited the Hikawa Shrine in the Shakujii River basin. Yamatotake is thought to be the beginning of Hikawa Shrine and the birth of Omiya when he realized that he was a reincarnation of Susanoo and worshiped the god of Hikawa in Hotsuma Tsutae. By the way, Suwa Shrine enshrines Kotoshironushi, but at the same time, the big lord Oomiwa is also a set. Izumo and Hata cannot be divided in the same way. The god of Hikawa enshrined by Yamato Takeru is the god of Omiya That is the god enshrined at Hikawa Shrine in Omiya called Omiyanome. At Omiya Hachimangu in Suginami Ward, it is enshrined alongside the Shirahata Shrine. I think you can call it Seiwa Genji's Himekami. That is Inari, and the most powerful one is the white fox. The white fox seems to be related to the Shirahata Shrine (Minamoto no Yoshiie) in Omiya Hachimangu. It seems that Shiratama Inari gave a spiritual ball to Minamoto no Yoshiie in the history of Hosenji Temple. Also, in the history of Yoyohata Hachiman next to Yoyogi Park, it is said that "Kamakura Hachiman" brought the jewel ball. In other words, it's Tsurugaoka Hachimangu. Both Omiya Hachimangu and Tsurugaoka Hachimangu were solicited by Iwashimizu Hachimangu, not Usa Jingu. Therefore, the solicitation of the god was the main, not the solicitation of the princess. The princess is thought to be the "Omiyanome" enshrined at Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. In addition, Omiyanome is mainly enshrined in Kyoto. It was in the 7th year of Emperor Sujin that he first worshiped, and after that, a person named "Tamba no Michinushi" worshiped. Tanba no Michinushi is said to be the grandson of the 9th Emperor Kaika. There is a rare shrine in Kameoka, Kyoto that enshrines Emperor Kaika in Japan. The structure of the company is impressive with pentagonal stone pillars that are common to the "Izumo zoku". It is said that in the 10th year of Emperor Sujin, Tanba no Michinushi enshrined "Emperor Kaika, the father of Emperor Sujin." The five pillar gods that the Izumo zoku respected are Amaterasu Okuninushi, Kurana Tamashii, Omi Takashi, Oohiko Meimei, and Ukanomitama. Kurana Tamashii is Inari God There is also a theory that Emperor Sujin and Emperor Kaika are brothers. Both are Omononushi The first shrine in Japan built in Yamato by the people who had the gods of the big lord Oomiwa was the Oomiwa Shrine with Mt. It is probable that Okuninushi was alive at that time and received the revelation of Sukuna bi kona. Okuninushi must have been a tremendous shaman It seems that Oomiwa-Jinushi was shown to be the happy soul and strange soul of Okuninushi. From the perspective of Shintoism of one spirit and four souls, it means "Japanese soul". You can think of the happy soul as the face of the god and the strange soul as the face of the goddess. Originally, it would be inseparable, so it is inseparable. In that case, Kushinadahime's comb is a "strange soul" and becomes Inari. Since the strange soul is a "mysterious power" as if it was hit by the strange character, it also has the function of giving a decree. For example, in the biography of Taira no Masakado, it is said that Asaomi Sugawara (Hachiman God) was given a divine order to become a new emperor by a god-like prostitute. This is also such a function In the same way, Shiratama Inari gives a oracle to Minamoto no Yoshiie. Shiratama Inari is enshrined here outside the precincts of Yoyogi-Hachiman. After all, the important parties are Minamoto no Yoriyoshi and Yoshiie. It seems that many Minamoto no Yoritomo are enshrined at Shirahata Shrines nationwide. Yoritomo may have worshiped Yoshiie as Genji's warrior god Also, if you follow the blood of Seiwa Genji's Mitsunaka Tada and Emperor Yozei, you will be connected to the imperial family. Mr. Soga is also an early imperial family, but there is a theory that he is a person of Baekje and Silla. Soga introduced Buddhism in the 6th century, but the Buddha was sent from Baekje. However, there were no monks, only the scriptures and Buddha statues. Therefore, it seems that Buddhist thought from Silla (via Northern Wei) was taken in. Buddhism such as Makai Buddhism, Kirin, and Myogen worship found in Japan is "Kakugi Buddhism" dyed with such Taoist ideas. There is Seiwa Genji in the flow of Silla. That is Yoshiie's younger brother, Shinra Saburo. Besides, Kamo Jiro is also a "duck people" because he is a brother. The ducks who are deeply involved with people such as Soga, Nakatomi, and Fujiwara are the gods of the generations of fire thunder gods (big lords) called Ebis, and Kotoshironushi is the second generation of the lords. The Kotoshironushi (Omononushi) is the god of Suwa Shrine, and is the son of Takeminakata. And the big lord Oomiwa is also Susanoo Inari is the strange soul of the big lord Oomiwa, and Susanoo's wife god. The men and women (fortunate souls and strange souls) become the big lord Oomiwa (Japanese soul), and become a set with Amaterasu Omikami (Mitama). Isn't this the two gods of "Korean god" and "Su god" still enshrined in the imperial family? "Korean god" is the big lord Oomiwa, "God of Su" is Amaterasu Omikami By the way, in ancient Taoist thought, women have elephants such as "water," "yin," and "moon." I think there were many female shamans from ancient times in the sense of accepting the sun. It seems that the female who gave birth to Shaka-sama and Confucius-sama was also a shamanic constitution. It seems that women have the power to be "squeezed", as was the case with Himiko of Yamatai and the second generation of Iyo. As seen in the Kojiki, Susanoo was given many harsh trials, and the great landlord ran off with the help of Susanoo's daughter Suserihime many times. It is also a strange work that is manifested by the "comb" of Kushinadahime (Hikawa Omiyanome), and it is said that the messenger of the true god (Su = element) is the most powerful white fox. It can be said that Shiratama Inari is the white fox of the true god (Susanoo) who has influenced the imperial family.
