Mencius believed that human nature is good and made up of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom. He regarded the heart as the place where human nature originates and develops, where one can recognize the goodness of one's nature and the brightness of one's inner heart. Mencius was focused on searching for the root and original heart, which is why he is known for his theory of establishing the foundation. Itō Jinsai, a Japanese Confucian thinker from the Edo period, praised and promoted Mencius' theory of the goodness of nature and the four ends of the mind.

Human nature 
The term "xing" (性) means "human nature" and refers to the way people are born. Mencius thought that human nature was good. Xunzi disagreed and believed that human nature was evil.

Both believed in human nature and both believed it was possible to become better, but some people refused it. Mencius saw Xing as more related to an ideal state and Xunzi saw it more as a starting state
Wang Yangming went further and said that Xing could become Li or principle. That human nature could be perfected,

Mencius 
Mencius was an advocate of the idea that humanity was intrinsically good. Xunzi by contrast believed in innate evilness. Some scholars think Mencius actually didn't believe people were intrinsically good but rather that it was in human nature to have a potential to be good
Mencius tried to find the root of human nature. The view of the theory of the goodness of nature and the four endings of the heart was also praised and spread by the Confucian thinker Itō Jinsai of Japan in the Edo period. His writings on the goodness of human nature include statements such as.

Zhu Xi 
Zhu Xi built upon Mencius' theory of natural goodness, but also introduced his own modifications. According to Zhu Xi, 'natural goodness' is inherently good, but human desire for evil arises later in life. See #Rousseau for a similar position
Literary 
The first sentence of the Three Character Classic, a popular enlightenment book in Zhong Yuan, is "At the beginning of man, nature is good"; this seems to be the view of the common literati and Baixing. The scholar Luo Si-guang believes that the traditional Chinese literati were overly optimistic about human nature and failed to set up various checking power measures as the West did, thus failing to eradicate corrupt officials for thousands of years.。

Wang Yangming 
The streets are full of saints, which is recorded in Wang Yangming's masterpiece "  ", which is one of the important philosophical arguments of Yangming's philosophy of mind . Modern  translation:
Philosophical meaning 
In "Biography and Xilu," there is a brief conversation about Wang Yangming's teaching method with three students: Wang Gen, Dong Yun, and Qian Dehong. He taught them differently based on their abilities. This was different from the Confucian tradition of teaching each student according to their specific needs, which had been in practice since Confucius.
Wang Yangming believed that education was important. He also made a comparison between "" and "flat land" to emphasize that saints are not better than others and should not be worshipped. As a teacher, one should present oneself as an ordinary person, and sometimes even lower one's posture to be like a "foolish man and a foolish woman" before teaching.

Western

Adam Smith 
Adam Smith thought that people are inherently good and have a concern for others. This feeling is called sympathy, and it arises when we see or imagine the misfortunes of others. This emotion is not just limited to people with high character, but even villains and those who break the laws of society can still feel it. Smith believed that empathy is a primitive feeling in human nature, and it is essential for creating a good society..' He wrote about this in his book The Theory of Moral Sentiments.
Rousseau 
French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau argued in "Discourse on the Origin and Foundations of Inequality Among Men" that human nature was fundamentally good but chaotic, and if people were taught to respect rules but keep that love then they could create a just society. He strongly believed in innate goodness

Criticism 

The theory of the goodness of human nature is not fully compatible with the Song and Ming traditions of Confucian Psychology (Xinxue, 心學), and it is contrary to the advocates of the theory of the goodness of human nature such as Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming, which has been criticized and opposed by some scholars in the academic world.。

In Japan, people worship humans after they die to help resolve any lingering negative feelings. Those who are worshipped during life include head priests, shrine maidens, and masquerading deities in the rituals of the miya-za. The hitogami and ujigami belief systems have interacted for a long time in Japanese history. Examples of the hitogami belief system include the worship of heroes like Hachiman and Tenjin, as well as the enthusiastic singing and dancing of festival processions, and the charismatic leadership of some of Japan's "new religions."

In the past, when societies were more hierarchical, it was typical for members of the ruling class who lost political battles to express their resentment through curses even after they died. They would also offer sacrifices to the gods in order to pacify their grudges..

People as Yorishiro 
In Shinto belief, people can act as a yorishiro and are referred to as yorimashi (憑坐, lit. 'possessed person') or kamigakari (神懸り/神憑, lit. 'kami possession').

Living worship, also known as seishi (生祀) in Japanese or shengci in Chinese, is a cultural practice in East Asia where living people are worshipped. In China, this practice takes place at sheng shrines (Chinese: 生祠, Shengci), where two types of enshrinement occur. The first is the enshrinement of the spirit of a living person who has made a significant contribution. The second type is the enshrinement of one's own spirit.

The practice of living worship became associated with corruption in China after it was used by Wei Zhongxian, and subsequently declined. In Japan, it was most prominent during the period of imperial State Shinto from the late 19th century until 1945, particularly in the worship of the Emperor.
In China 
During the time when Reunobu was the prime minister of Yan in the Former Han dynasty, he constructed a shrine called the "Reun Gong Shrine" between the states of Yan and Qi. Similarly, when Shiqing was the prime minister of Qi, the people of Qi built a shrine in his honor called the "Shiqing Shrine". These are considered to be the earliest examples of sheng shrines..

During the Tang dynasty, officials in office faced restrictions when it came to building monuments and shrines. The Tang Rulings and Ordinances stated that anyone who erected shrines or monuments without permission could be penalized with one year of imprisonment..

During the Ming dynasty, peasants in Tengzhou, China built a shrine to commemorate Zhao Bangqing, who was known for his clean politics and was appointed to Yanjing. The shrine was built to honor his memory and achievements.
During the reign of the Tianqi Emperor in the Ming Dynasty, the eunuch Wei Zhongxian had a lot of power and made a sheng shrine for himself. People who wanted to please him or were scared of him were given these shrines too. In 1627, Lu Wanling, a government official, wrote about the famous philosophers Confucius and Chung-Hsien. In the same year, two other officials named Yuan Chonghuan and Yan Mingtai asked the government to praise Wei Zhongxian and build shrines for him. Many shrines were built, costing a lot of money and causing harm to the people. Huang Yun Yasushi even made a statue to honor Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian's behavior has been strongly condemned in modern times.

Gu Yanwu expressed his sorrow about the widespread practice of officials building sheng shrines during his time. He observed that every official seemed to be building one, but then after they left their position, they would destroy the statues and change the master of the shrine..

In Japan
In Japan 

During the Edo period (1603-1868), the practice of seishi became popular, which involved creating one's own spiritual memorial site where their soul would be worshiped after death. One famous example of this is Matsudaira Sadanobu, who established his own seishi at Okuzawa Hachiman-gu in 1797.

During the Edo period in Japan, the practice of seishi, or the establishment of one's own spiritual memorial site, became popular. It was influenced by Edo neo-Confucianism, which was introduced from China, and Yamazaki Ansai was a notable figure who developed rituals for seishi based on Confucian ceremonies. He  established his own seishi in 1671 at his home in Kyoto. The practice spread to Shinto and the Hirata school of kokugaku, and each group had their own unique rituals. Seishi were believed to bring longevity in life or enable one to become a god after death, and its origin is traced back to the myth of Amaterasu, who enshrined her divine spirit at Mount Miwa..
Genchi Kato is known for his extensive study of seishi and has identified a total of 670 known seishi. The most recent seishi was established in 1931 at the Nishi-Chogo Shrine in Higashikokura, Hokkaido. The seishi of Emperor Meiji, Empress Shōken, Emperor Taisho, and Empress Teimei were also established in various locations throughout Japan, including Hokkaido, Hiroshima, and Himeji. Emperor Meiji's seishi was established in 1876 in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture, and again in 1893 at the Yahiko Shrine in Tatsuno, Nagano Prefecture.

Religious Confucianism

Pages with unreviewed translations
Syntheism is a New religious movement that seeks to provide atheists and pantheists with a sense of community and awe that is comparable to what is often found in traditional theistic religions.. The Syntheist Movement sees itself as coming from the philosophers Baruch Spinoza and Alfred North Whitehead's process theology.

Syntheism can be described as a response to the absence of atheistic and pantheistic belief systems in Western cultures, which are more prevalent in Eastern cultures. Many forms of Buddhism are all Eastern belief systems that embody these concepts. Epicureanism is an example of a Western philosophy that does incorporate some of these ideas, but overall they are not as widely represented in Western culture..
Etymology 
The term "Syntheism" was created from the Greek word "syntheos", which combines "syn-" meaning "with" or "creating with" and "-theos" meaning "god". This suggests that the correct way to understand the concept of God is that humans have created, are creating, or will create God. This is different from the traditional monotheistic view that God created the world and humanity.

In addition to The Syntheist Movement, a syntheistic philosophy and approach to religion has also been promoted by American philosopher Ray Kurzweil in his concept of the Singularity that is yet to come. French philosopher Quentin Meillassoux also supports this approach and has proposed the idea that "God is a concept far too important to leave to the religious" in his book After Finitude.
Communities 
There is a big international Facebook community for Syntheism, which has over 1,500 members. The website of Syntheism has a blog, information about holy festivals, and links to media and other resources. In Sweden, there is a community of over 700 members who have organized various local events..

Notable works 
In October 2014, two Swedish philosophers, Alexander Bard and Jan Söderqvist, wrote a book called "Syntheism - Creating God in the Internet Age". It was the first book to use the term "Syntheism" in its title. In the book, Bard & Söderqvist quoted Stuart Kauffman, Sam Harris, Robert Corrington, and Simon Critchley. They also drew inspiration from various modern phenomena such as digitalisation, globalisation, participatory culture, psychedelic practices, quantum physics, and the science of cosmology to create a syntheist worldview..
Beliefs 
Syntheism is a belief system that considers the traditional division between theism and atheism in theology as outdated and no longer relevant for fulfilling contemporary and future spiritual needs. In order to address these needs, Syntheism acknowledges that all metaphysical beliefs ultimately revolve around a man-made focal point or divinity. As a result, all religious beliefs - both existing and those that may emerge in the future - are created by humans. This includes philosophical systems like Individualism, which were developed by thinkers such as René Descartes and Immanuel Kant.).

Despite being created by humans, it is essential that these beliefs are compatible with and supportive of science, rather than in conflict with it. As such, these beliefs should be developed within a monist worldview, which holds that there is only one world, and everything within it can affect everything else.
In a more poetic sense, French philosopher Georges Bataille describes his atheology as "the art of non-knowledge." He advocates for a syntheistic religion without a core set of beliefs, instead emphasizing participatory festivals with utopian themes. Examples of such practices include Burning Man, which are viewed as syntheistic expressions

Criticisms 
Some scholars, including Dr. Stephen O'Leary, have expressed concerns about the lack of central leadership and core beliefs within Syntheism, which they believe may lead to its failure as a religion. Additionally, the idea has been criticized for its potential lack of mystery, which is a core element of many traditional religions..

Ame-no-Minakanushi is a god in Japanese stories. They were one of the earliest gods, who appeared when the world was made. They are also called "Lord of the August Center of Heaven".

Mythology 
According to the Kojiki, Ame-no-Minakanushi was the first deity to emerge in the heavenly realm of Takamagahara after the creation of heaven and earth from the primeval chaos.

In the main narrative of the Nihon Shoki and in many of its variant accounts, the first kami is identified as Kuni-no-Tokotachi, and Ame-no-Minakanushi only appears briefly in one of these variants.

Analysis 

It is unknown whether people actually worshipped him, as there was no direct evidence historically. Some scholars believe the lack of evidence of worship is not enough to say he wasn't worshipped.
Worship 
In Japan, the Buddhist deity Myōken has been worshiped since the 7th century. During the early modern period, Myōken became associated with the Big Dipper and the northern pole star, which led to its conflation with Ame-no-Minakanushi. When the Meiji government required the separation of Buddhism and Shinto, many shrines dedicated to Myōken became shrines to Ame-no-Minakanushi. Ame-no-Minakanushi was also a patron deity of the , which aimed to fuse Buddhism and Shinto under a state-sponsored initiative after the initial separation policy was deemed too divisive.

The Louisville Bats are a Minor League Baseball team from Louisville, Kentucky. They play baseball at the Triple-A (AAA) level, the most difficult level before Major League Baseball, against other baseball teams in the International League (a group of 20 baseball teams at the same level). The Bats are partnered with the Cincinnati Reds, a Major League Baseball team. When a player shows that he plays well at this level, he may be moved up to play for the Reds.

The team is named "Bats" because Louisville is famous for making a baseball bat called the Louisville Slugger. The team's logo uses a baseball bat and the animal called a bat. Their name was the Louisville Redbirds from 1982 to 1998 and Louisville RiverBats from 1999 to 2001. They became the Bats in 2002.

The Bats played at a stadium called Cardinal Stadium from 1982 to 1999. In 2000, the Bats began to play at a new stadium called Louisville Slugger Field.

Danila Sergeevich Bagrov is the leading person in the movies called "Brother" and "Brother-2", directed by Alexei Balabanov. The character is portrayed by Sergei Bodrov Jr. in both films.  .
Danila Bagrov is a veteran of the First Chechen War and has completed his military service. He was born on August 5, 1975, making him 22 years old in the first film. Danila's fellow soldiers, Kostya and Ilya, think that he is the most skilled fighter among them. However, Danila is modest and doesn't like to boast about his achievements during the war. He often says that he worked as a clerk at the headquarters, but he is actually highly skilled in hand-to-hand combat, mine explosives, and shooting. He is also good at using combat tactics in urban environments and can even make and repair firearms in artisanal conditions. Despite his quirky appearance, Danila is tough on injustice and shows no mercy to his enemies. He enjoys listening to Russian rock bands such as Nautilus Pompilius and DDT, but he dislikes pop music, which he calls "fake" since they didn't listen to it during the war. Film critic Elena Stishova describes him as a "folk hero" and "gentleman thief".

Biography
Biography

Family 
Before joining the Russian army, Danila lived with his retired mother, whose name is unknown. His father, Sergei Platonovich Bagrov, was a repeat offender who died in prison in January 1982. Danila was mostly raised by his older brother Viktor, who served in the Soviet army, as seen from a photo in the family album in the movie "Brother". Viktor Sukhorukov portrays Viktor, who is much loved by Danila and acts as a father figure to him. Unlike Danila, Viktor is outgoing, sociable, and expresses emotions openly. However, Viktor lacks moral integrity and is too frivolous. He is even willing to commit crimes for money. In "Brother 2", Danila mentions their grandfather who died during the Great Patriotic War, but his name is not mentioned.
Events of the first film 
After being discharged from the army, Danila returns to his hometown where he gets into a fight with a security guard on the set of the music video for the song "Wings" by Nautilus Pompilius. He is arrested by the police but is eventually released. Danila finds life in his hometown boring and decides to go to St. Petersburg, where his older brother Viktor has settled down and is doing well.
Danila soon learns that his older brother Viktor is a hired killer known as Tatar. Viktor involves Danila in his work, sending him to do all the dangerous and illegal tasks. The first task Danila completes is killing a Caucasian man who was a former Chechen militant and the owner of a city market. The man was disliked by the gangsters, and during the ensuing chase, Danila seriously injures one of them. Later, at the request of Viktor, Danila participates in an ambush with two accomplices. However, after completing the task, Danila kills both accomplices in order to save a random witness from being harmed.

Following the betrayal of his brother, Victor, Danila confronts and defeats the bandits, and forgives his brother. With his friends lost and disillusioned with the justice system, Danila decides to leave St. Petersburg and move to Moscow, where he hopes to attend university and become a doctor.
Events of the second movie 
Danila meets with his friends Kostya and Ilya from Chechnya in Moscow. Kostya's twin brother Mitya plays in the NHL, but the money he earns goes to an American businessman who does bad things. Kostya wants to help his brother, so he asks his boss Belkin to talk to the American. But Belkin has his own interests in illegal gambling, and he tells his people to "sort out" Kostya, which leads to them trying to kill him. Danila wants to help and get justice for his friend. Meanwhile, Danila's brother Viktor comes to Moscow to be with him.
Danila learns that the American businessman is behind Kostya's troubles, so he decides to go to America with his brother to find him. To avoid suspicion, they fly on different flights: Victor to Chicago and Danila to New York. Danila befriends a truck driver who helps him get to Chicago, but he can't find his brother and runs out of money. He then meets a Russian prostitute named Dasha who is in trouble and saves her with the help of his weapons. Finally, he tracks down the American and forces him to return all the money owed to the hockey player.

Danila meets with his brother in America but they are chased by the police and Ukrainian mafia. Viktor is captured by the police after a shootout in a restaurant. Danila and Dasha manage to escape the American police and leave the United States by plane. It is unknown what happens to Danila after the events of the second film.
Influence 
The character created by Sergei Bodrov was very fond of the Russian audience. Despite the fact that Alexei Balabanov treated Danil Bagrov as an object of directorial irony, the audience saw him as a national hero.

In September 2014, the graffiti team from Vitebsk "HoodGraff" painted a portrait of Danila Bagrov on the wall of the transformer box, the creation is located near the Alexander Nevsky Lavra, next to the Prospect Obukhovskoy Oborona stop in St. Petersburg. In 2015, in the Perm club "House of Culture", the artist Vyacheslav Nesterov, working under the pseudonym Slava Triptych, made a huge portrait of Danila Bagrov.

In 2017, according to the results of online voting, Danila Bagrov was recognized as the national superhero of Russia.

In August 2018, Danila Bagrov was parodied in Monetochka's video "90".
In September 2018, the popular video blogger Enjoykin created the music video "Brother", which gained more than one and a half million views in a day after publication and took second place in the top YouTube site.

The teaser for “Brother 3” (in which rapper Ptakha asks an armed man with a beard a question: “Tell me, gypsies, what is the truth?” And receives the answer “In force”) had a wide resonance, and caused almost universal indignation among Runet users: in they saw disrespect for the memory of Alexei Balabanov and Sergei Bodrov Jr. .

Other appearances
Other appearances 

 The Nautilus Pompilius group released a music video for the song "In the Rain", which was directed by Alexei Balabanov and featured new footage with Danila Bagrov (played by Sergey Bodrov Jr.) from the first film.  . [ <span style="" title="Википедия:Значимость факта">significance of the fact?</span> ]
 Sergei Bodrov mentioned in an interview with the editors of the magazine Art of Cinema that the character Danila Bagrov makes an appearance in his film "Sisters." Danila Bagrov is portrayed as the guy who arrives in a jeep to the song "No one writes to the Colonel" and then shoots at a shooting range. Bodrov considers this appearance to be a "cheerful greeting" to Alexei Balabanov, the director of "Brother." .
 Danila Bagrov and Viktor Bagrov appear in the videogame "Brother 2: Back to America"
 Danila Bagrov appears in the comic "Brother 25 years" released on the 25th anniversary of the first movie.

Titles 
The Russian cargo ship Danila Bagrov is named after him.
Sweater 
The sweater worn by Danila Bagrov in the movie was found by Nadezhda Vasilyeva, the costume designer and wife of director Alexei Balabanov, by chance during the filming of the first movie. It became an important part of Danila's image.I went to a second-hand store because we didn't have enough money for costumes. While searching, I found a sweater that cost thirty-five rubles. I realized it was perfect for Bodrov's character, and when I put it on him, everyone thought he looked really cool. We argued for a while, but Bodrov really wanted to wear it, so we convinced Balabanov to buy it. Balabanov agreed, as long as Bodrov wore something waterproof over it. So, Bodrov wore a windbreaker over the sweater. The boys dressed in a similar way for the film. I consider this my biggest achievement in life. Everything else, like costumes and clothing, was secondary  .
Criticism 
Literary critic and publicist Viktor Toporov pointed out that there are similarities between two works by director Alexei Balabanov - the short story "Trofim" from the film almanac "The Arrival of the Train" (1995) and the film "Brother" (1997).

The critic noticed that in two works of director Alexei Balabanov, "Trofim" from the film "The Arrival of the Train" and "Brother", the main characters both went to St. Petersburg and then to Moscow, just like Danila Bagrov did in "Brother 2". Additionally, both films showed the arrival in St. Petersburg at the same station, Vitebsk. [ source not specified 566 days ] .
Sergei Kudryavtsev, a film critic, agrees with the previous observation and suggests that "Brother" and "Trofim" cannot be understood separately. Both the main characters, Danila and Trofim, arrive in a city that is equally unfriendly and scary. The only difference is that the modern city does not have the characteristics of an imperial capital, but rather resembles a "lifeless graveyard."

Tatyana Semyonova and Maria Erokhina, who hold degrees in Philosophy and Cultural Studies respectively, suggest that Danila Bagrov represents the traditional "Russian wanderer" image, but in the context of the 1990s. In the first movie, he returns from the war in Chechnya and travels to St. Petersburg to see his killer brother. In the second movie, he is sent from Moscow to the United States. The Russian wanderer is known for embarking on a never-ending journey through time and space, facing countless challenges in search of truth or God.

Kamuyaimimi-no-Mikoto, also known as 神八井耳命 in Japanese, is a character in Japanese mythology. He was one of the three brothers born to Emperor Jimmu and his wife Himetataraisuzu-hime.

Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto became famous for his involvement in the killing of Tagishimimi. He and his brother Suizei killed Tagishimimi to save Suizei from being assassinated..

In the Kojiki Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto was the older brother of Suizei and was next in line to become the emperor. However, he chose to pass the throne to his younger brother Suizei. This is similar to the story of Yamayukihiko and Umiyukihiko, who also made an "oath of subordination" to each other..

Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto has a connection with Aso Shrine, where a deity named Takeban Ryujin (Taikei Watatsu) is enshrined. According to the shrine's mythology, Takeban Ryujin is considered a "child" of Kamuyaiminomikoto, and this is also supported by the Kojiki, which mentions that "Aso-kun is a descendant of Kamuyaiminomikoto."".
Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto was not only involved in the Assassination of Tagishimimi, but was also known for his bravery and leadership. When the princes found out about Tagishimimi's plot to assassinate Suizei, Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto attempted to kill Tagishimimi himself, but his limbs shook and he could not do it. His younger brother, Kamununakahamiminomikoto, took Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto's weapon and went in to kill Tagishimimi instead..

Historical records 
Historical records indicate that the Yamato Imperial Court sent members of the imperial family to Shinano Province to control , a powerful deity with ancestral ties to the Izumo and Koshi gods. This area was strategically important as it connected the Sea of Japan and the East. Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto, son of Emperor Jimmu and an influential member of the imperial family, was among those dispatched to Shinano. The Kojiki, an ancient record of Japanese history, also credits him with establishing the Emperor System..
According to the Kojiki, Kamuyaimi-no-Mikoto not only established the Emperor System but also appointed Takeiotatsu no Mikoto, his grandson, as the national governor. This appointment is considered to be the first time that the king of Japan was appointed to the position of Kunizukuri. Additionally, the palace of Shikinomizugaki, which is located in Nara Prefecture, was built during the reign of the 10th Emperor Sujin.

He is not mentioned in the "Nihon Shoki" and is not known by any other name. Hikoyai-no-Mikoto's father was Emperor Jimmu, and his brothers were Kamuyaimimi and Emperor Suizei.

is an island country that existed in the past in Japan. It is mentioned in Chinese history books like the Wajinden.

Description in the Wajinden 
The Wajinden said Tsukaikoku island didn't have good farming land. But, Ōe Masafusa wrote there were places to grow crops. The island often gave soybeans as a gift. The records show the island had a lot of precious things. These included silver, lead, tin, pearls, gold, and lacquer. Pearls were especially important. But the pearls might not be real. They could be red paint made from a stuff called cinnabar. This stuff is found mixed with minerals in mountains...

In old records from the Wei dynasty, it's written that the king of Wa gave about 11 kg of pearls to Queen Himiko. It is also known that people in Korea knew about the island...
The island had more than 1000 homes, but no king. Only officials called the "Higo" and "Hinokumari" were written about. Officials from the "Bando" area only came to ports for a short time because it was easier for traveling. They wrote down the names and traits of the administrative areas. So, other areas like Motsu, Keiji, and Kashi might have had kings. But the names from the Yayoi period and the Engishiki records may not be the same..

Location 
Some history experts say that the old country called Tsukaikoku is the same as the island of Tsushima today. But others think it's in Shimane prefecture.

Shimane theory 
The names of the shrines written in the Engishiki shrine records match the shrines in Shimane prefecture. This helps the idea of its location.
In Shimane prefecture, there were four areas: Kashi, Keiji, Tamamochi, and Motsu. The island has four regions naturally split by mountains. You can see this on a map. You can tell where Kashi, Keiji, and Motsu are by their names today. But we don't know where Tamamochi is. The west coast area that's mostly empty is later called Sasu district. But this name isn't in old books. Scholars think the area might have changed its name from Tamamochi to Sasu long ago..

The Hiromine Shrine (広峯神社) is on top of Mt. Hiromine in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. It claims to be the main shrine of Gozu Tenno across Japan, but Yasaka-jinja Shrine also claims to be the main shrine of Gozu Tenno. It used to be a prefectural shrine, but now it is a Beppyo shrine under the Association of Shinto Shrines. People also call it Hiromine Gozu Tenno. It is an ancient shrine with a well-known name.

The worship of Gozu Tenno was originally related to the belief in avoiding epidemics and disasters by appeasing malevolent spirits. However, at Hiromine shrine, the focus of worship shifted to praying for the fertility of rice cultivation. This became known as "Hiromine Faith," and it is why the shrine is quite different from normal Gion faith shrines. This is evident in the rice planting festival and prayer festival that are held at the shrine.
Kuroda Takataka (Kanbei, Josui) Ancestral Tradition 
In 2018, it was announced that a shrine would be built to honor Kuroda Takataka (also known as Kanbei) behind the main hall, and it was planned to be finished in the spring of 2019. Many people visit the shrine to worship Kuroda Kanbei and the land associated with the Kuroda family.

There is a legend about Shigetaka Kuroda, a military commander during the Warring States period, in our shrine. The legend includes the use of letters such as "Cho", "Masa", "Takashi", and "Kan" in the name "Kanbei", suggesting a connection to Shigetaka Kuroda. However, no connection has been found, and he is believed to have come from a different family in Kurodasho, Taka County, not the Kuroda family of Omi Province.
Historical records show that a senior vassal of the Kuroda family, Mr. Inokuchi, was a monk and priest at the shrine. A part of a Katsura tree discovered from the Mausoleum of Kuroda Shikinaka in Mega, Himeji City during the Edo period was enshrined at the newly built Kanbei Shrine. It was donated to Mine Shrine and became an object of worship at Kanbei Shrine.

 Rice planting festival ( April 3rd )
This is a traditional Shinto ceremony that is believed to bring a good harvest of rice. It is an important festival for Shrine, as they have been worshiping the god of agriculture for many years. The ceremony is designated as an intangible folk cultural property of Himeji City. Along with the prayer festival, this ceremony is performed to pray for a successful rice crop by simulating rice planting and harvesting before the actual rice cultivation of the year. On April 3rd morning, a Shinto priest, dressed in a robe, is accompanied by a group of people to the main Shrine. The group includes an umbrella holder with a Kasa-boko, a hat with artificial cherry blossoms, and a red kimono. During the ceremony, there is a band in white robes and blue hakama playing festival music with flutes and drums. Rice fields are plowed by people wearing straw hats and plow hoes to create a temporary field. Seedlings carrying seedling boxes with balance poles parade in a procession
. After reaching the main Shrine, a Kasahoko is set up in front of the main gate, and the Shinto priest prays. Then the rice paddy is divided into three parts for the three types of rice, Wase, Nakate, and Okute, and is filled with sand. A person puts a spade and a hoe in, and then Janohige, which looks like rice seedlings, are planted in each paddy field. The orchestra plays festival music in time with the planting.  In the past, many people would come to the shrine for this festival, but in recent times, the number of visitors has decreased due to the decline of agriculture and the lack of people who can play festival music. The festival was temporarily suspended until 1996 when the local commerce and industry established a commendation society to revive the festival. Currently, three of the Saotomes are responsible for PR activities for Himeji City.
