Above the famous Dazaifu shrine at Tenjin lies the beautiful Mt Homan trail. A winding mix of many features, it was the first mountain I climbed in Japan and has been a favorite of mine since I arrived three years ago. One of my favorite spots is the old overgrown torri gate that marks the transition to the higher trails. #mthoman #dazaifu #dazaifutenmangu #naturalbeauty #hikingadventures #pnwphotographer #seattleigers #fukuoka_camera #toriigate #sunlight #sonya6400 #instajapan (at Dazaifu, Fukuoka) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClgcWbYSxsl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

太宰府天満宮の御本殿（改修中 2023年5月から）。 狛犬（5体ある。白っぽい珍しいものがあるのに、6年前も同じのを撮影してる）。 太宰府天満宮（2017年6月）6年ぶり。 905年、門弟だった味酒安行が道真の墓所に廟を建てたのが始まり。明治維新までは安楽寺だった。919年、醍醐天皇の命によって最初の御社殿が造営。現在の御社殿は1591年、小早川隆景によって造営。 小早川隆景（1533−1597）。毛利元成の三男。五大老（徳川家康、前田利家、毛利輝元、宇喜多秀家）（亡くなった後、上杉景勝がなる。前田利長）。実施はなく小早川秀秋（関ヶ原で裏切った）を養子にした。 毛利元就危篤時に兄弟結束を促した際（有名な3本の矢の話）に、「争いは欲より起こるもの。欲をやめて義を守るならば、兄弟の不和は起きませぬ」と述べた。 黒田官兵衛：亡くなった時、「これで日本に賢人がいなくなった」。 豊臣秀吉：「日本の西は小早川隆景に任せれば全て安泰である」。 道真の遺言に「私の亡骸は牛の車に乗せ、人に引かせずに、その牛の行くところに止めよ。」との文言があり、遺言のとおり、牛が止まったところに道真を葬り、その上に社殿を建てた。 2023年5月より3年をかけて、御本殿124年ぶりの大改修。 菅原道真が亡くなって1125年、2027年の式年大祭前に完成予定。

25年毎に行う式年大祭。25という数字は菅原道真に縁が深い数字。誕生日（6月25日）、亡くなった日（2月25日）、太宰府に左遷が決まった日（1月25日）。

3年限定の仮殿（2023年6月）。 飛梅（本殿右側）。 飛梅伝説。道真が太宰府に左遷された際に、いなくなる道真を慕う庭木たち。桜は枯れてしまい、松と梅は太宰府へ向けて飛び立ち、松は途中で力尽き（神戸の板宿八幡神社）、梅は太宰府までたどり着いた。

菅原道真の和歌。

百人一首。 東風（こち）吹かば、匂ひおこせよ、梅の花、主なしとて、春を忘るな。 東風が吹いたら（その風にのせて）香りを送ってくれ 梅の花よ 主人がいないからといって春を忘れるなよ（大宰府に左遷されることが決まった道真が庭の梅に別れを告げた歌）。 Dazaifu Shrine. Fukuoka.

Jackie in Japan - Shrine Visit

I never did visit the shrine when I went to the festival, and I really feel like I should have. On top of that, my academic performance hasn't been too great compared to my classmates, so with something to wish for, why not go?

I don't usually bring anime references up in these posts, but I will make an exception today. In Noragami, you will meet a God named Tenjin, the one Tomone leaves Yato for. He is the shinto God of academics and has a few shrines around the country. One of them is in Dazaifu in Fukuoka prefecture. It's called Dazaifu Tenman-guu. If you are not too confused on where you want to go, you can get there in a little over an hour from where I live. (I spent around 30 minutes or so at Tenjin station, wondering which train to take to get to Dazaifu.)

Anyway, I made it to Dazaifu station and from there I just had to follow the crowd to the shrine, but the path was rather simple. From the station, turn right, then walk around 50 m, then turn left and walk 100 m or so, and then turn right and you will see the first torii straight ahead.

The torii is a gate that indicates that you are entering the land of the gods. According to the video I saw, you are supposed to bow before entering and you are not supposed to go through the middle of the gate, as that is the path of the gods. I didn't do either.

After entering the first torii there was a path with shops on either side where you could buy all kinds of foods and souvenirs. It reminded me a little of the area around Kiyomizudera (Kiyomizu temple) in Kyoto, except it wasn't nearly as crowded or as big.

When the street of shops ends, there is a spot where the path turns. There's a statue of a lying bull who people were lining up to touch. If I have understood it correctly, apparently it should bring good luck to touch it, so of course I had to do that. Also because I'm pretty sure that's only at this shrine, or at least I haven't seen it at any other shrine.

Then I followed the line of umbrellas with Japanese people hiding underneath (it was raining and I have no hands for an umbrella, so I didn't carry one). We crossed three bridges that connected two islands in a pond. The line led past the temizusha where you are supposed to rinse your hands and mouth to be "clean" when entering the shrine. I didn't do it because I had already been waiting in line for 10 minutes and with no one to hold my place, I would have to go all the way back to the end and wait for another 10 minutes in the rain. I was not about to, and some of the other people who came alone didn't do it either. But I felt bad for not doing it.

I entered the shrine grounds and walked with the crown to the main building. I threw in my 5-yen coin for good luck (go-en can apparently also mean good luck if written with diferent kanji) and then prayed. The way you do it at shinto shrines is that you throw in the coin, bow twice, clap loudly twice and pray, then bow again and leave. You know what I forgot? In the midst of reminding myself that I'm supposed to clap loudly and make noise, I forgot to pray!

I went and drew myself a fortune telling. They need 100 yen for that. I don't know what it says yet, but it's readable and they bothered to put furigana on the kanji, so I will get to translate it later. Normally, you can tie it on a string or something to make it come true. I did that once in Kyoto, but as I said, I took my fortune home with me today. Then I hurriedly left before I made any more mistakes. I bought a fan on the way out, making the cost of my shrine visit go from 105 yen to 1205 yen, not including transportation.

My biggest accomplishments: 1. I successfully found my way from my home station to Tenjin, and all the way to the Nishitetsu line. 2. my Japanese was praised. Apparently some people think it's good enough that I could be perminently living in Japan. 3. I found my way back from Dazaifu and all the way home all on my own with no problem except I got on the wrong platform at the first station I needed to change trains at. So there is a little to be proud of at least.

Have you ever visited a shinto shrine? is there one you would like to visit? Did you make any mistakes or are there any mistakes you really don't want to make?
