大宮、氷川神社

2022.11.27

今日は、うちの長女が来年入りたい中学があるというので、家で勉強中。勉強の邪魔になるからと、自分は、娘二人と4歳の子供をつれて軽くお出かけ。

３女が、突然、神社いきたい！！というもので、じゃあと、自分も行ったことがなかった東京では一番大きいという大宮の氷川神社に行ってみた。

七五三なのか、子供たちがたくさん。

そういえば、うちがいつも利用している明治神宮。明治神宮の祭神は明治天皇と昭憲皇太后なので、人神。

今日の氷川神社は、主祭神は次の3柱。須佐之男命（すさのおのみこと）稲田姫命（いなだひめのみこと）大己貴命（おおなむちのみこと）とのこと。

あるところでは人、あるところでは神。教典や具体的な教えはなく、開祖もいないという日本の神道。自由だ。

Today, our eldest daughter is at home studying for a secondary school she wants to enter next year. I took my two daughters and son because I didn’t want to get in the way of her studies.

The third daughter wanted to go to a shrine or something, so we went to Hikawa Shrine in Omiya, which is said to be the biggest shrine in Tokyo, and which I had never been to before.

There were many children there, probably for Shichi-Go-San.

Come to think of it, we always use Meiji Jingu Shrine. The deities at Meiji Jingu are Emperor Meiji and Empress Dowager Shoken, so it is a human deity.

Today’s Hikawa Shrine has the following three main deities. Susano no Mikoto, Inadahime no Mikoto and Oonamuchi no Mikoto.

In some places they are people, in others they are gods. The Japanese Shinto religion has no scriptures, no specific teachings and no founder.

Perhaps this level of ambiguity is good for the Japanese.
