Yasaka Shrine’s deities Part 17

How are you, everyone? This is the defeated soldier. I’d like to make a sequel talk of Susanoo-sama, who have been enshrined in Yasaka shrine in Kyoto from the long past. The previous talk was about Amaterasu Omikami-sama, who is associated with Iwatoyama, one of the floats in the Gion Festival. Well, let’s get started.

Here, Susanoo no Mikoto told Amaterasu Omikami.

“I have come again because the gods have driven me to the land of Ne. Let me now leave for the land of Ne. If I had not seen you, my sister, Amaterasu, I would have been truly sorry and could not bear to part with you.”

He continued, “Therefore, I have come to see you again with a truly pure heart. I have already finished what I am asking you to meet with me now. Let me now leave this Takamagahara and return to the land of Ne forever as the gods wish. ”

He continued. “Now I ask you. May our sister, Amaterasu Omikami no Mikoto, continue to illuminate the world in the heavenly lands forever. And the gods whom I have begotten with a pure heart, I offer them to you, my sister.”

After saying that, Susanoo-sama then returned to the land of Ne.

Then, Susanoo-sama, who had descended from the Takamagahara, wandered on his way asking Ogetu-hime for food along the way.

(It is also said that she was the goddess who was named Awanoshima, when Izanami no Mikoto and Izanagi no Mikoto created this country and created Awaj island and next Shikoku, or the goddess, who was born before Kagutuchi no Mikto, the deity of fire, at the end of Izanagi’s and Izanami’s creation of the lands and gods.)
