Description

[Machine Translation] ( No. 22 ) *Sumiyoshi-taisha Shrine and others / Sumiyoshi-sha, a Shinto shrine that has watched over the sea since ancient times / Oriins and deities Sumiyoshi-taisha Shrine - Just west of the Uemachi Plateau where Sumiyoshi-taisha Shrine is located, what we now call Higashi-Osaka and Yao used to be an inland sea called Kawachi Lake. This area was a difficult place to reach because of the difference in water level between the lake and Osaka Bay, the open sea. Some say that this is the origin of the name "Namba. The belief in Sumiyoshi-taishin, the god who protects maritime safety, took root in the local flavor of the area. The waves that lapped Sumiyoshi-taisha Shrine receded, and fresh water was drawn instead, creating rice paddies. As Osaka became more prosperous as a commercial center, people prayed for the prosperity of their businesses. Between the rows of buildings, rice planted in the rice paddies swayed in the wind. Or on the wide Kishu Highway, a portable shrine leads a procession to Shukuin Tongu in Sakai. The festival of Sumiyoshi Taisha reminds us of the continuous history of Sumiyoshi, with its double images of the past and present. / Focus: Sumiyoshi's "white sand and green pines" and love stories / Four seasons and festivals: Preserving ancient traditions and passing them on / Monzen Tabijo: Enjoying the gateway of the great deity who protects the sea / Tour of famous shrines: From Osaka's oldest shrine to a tour of ancient shrines / Mystery of sacred places: The greatest mystery in ancient history hidden behind the birth of Emperor Ojin / Reading myths: The god Sarutabiko / Benefits Collection Sumiyoshi-taisha / Basic knowledge of shrines Chigi

【22号】 *住吉大社 他 ◆境内探訪 古から海を見守る鎮守社すみよっさん ◆縁起とご祭神 住吉大神/神功皇后 ‐住吉大社のある上町台地のすぐ西、現在でいう東大阪や八尾は、古くは河内湖という内海であった。 ここは外海の大阪湾と水位差が開きやすく、水の難所であった。これが「難波」の由来となったという説もある。 海上安全を守護する住吉大神への信仰は、こうした地域色を土壌に根付いていった。 それから住吉大社は、打ち寄せる波が退いて、代わりに淡水を引き、水田が作られた。 さらに大阪が商都として賑わいを増せば、商売繁昌の祈願もかけられた。 立ち並ぶビルの合間で、御田に植えられた稲が風に揺れる。 あるいは広い紀州街道で、神輿が行列を従えて堺の宿院頓宮を目指す。 住吉大社の祭礼には、今昔の住吉模様が二重写しになっていて、脈々と続く歴史を思い起こさせる。 ◆フォーカス 住吉の「白砂青松」と恋物語 ◆四季と祭り 古式の伝統を守り今に継承する ◆門前旅情 海を守護する大神の門前を楽しむ ◆名社をめぐる 大阪最古の神社から古の社をめぐる旅へ ◆聖地のミステリー 応神天皇誕生の裏に隠された古代史最大の謎 ◆神話を読む 猿田毘古神 ◆ご利益コレクション 住吉大社 ◆神社の基礎知識 千木
