Japanese: ただし、「天神社」については、天津神を祀る神社という意味のものもあり、これは菅原道真とは関係がない。
English: Following Michizane's death, the capital city of Heiankyo was successively hit by disasters such as thunderstorms and, when a bolt of lightening that struck the Emperor's palace Seiryo-den killed Dainagon (chief councilor of state) FUJIWARA no Kiyotaka, Michizane came to be regarded in the same light as the Tenjin god of lightening (Karai Tenjin).
Japanese: 道真が亡くなった後、平安京で雷などの天変が相次ぎ、清涼殿への落雷で大納言の藤原清貴が亡くなったことから、道真は雷の神である天神（火雷天神）と同一視されるようになった。
English: It is said that the name 'Tenman' was derived from the name 'Soramitsu Dai Jizai Tenjin' given name as a deity following the death of Michizane, which was itself derived from the saying that 'The vengeful spirit of Michizane became the god of thunder and filled the sky.'
Japanese: 「天満」の名は、道真が死後に送られた神号の「天満（そらみつ）大自在天神」から来たといわれ、「道真の怨霊が雷神となり、それが天に満ちた」ことがその由来という。
English: Michizane's status as a renowned scholar during his lifetime (some people claim him to have been the greatest of the Heian period) led Tenjin to be regarded as the patron of scholarship and now many students visit the shrines to pray for success in examinations.
Japanese: 道真が生前優れた学者であったことから天神は「学問の神様」ともされ（人によっては“平安時代きっての秀才”と評する事もある）、今なお多くの受験生が合格祈願に詣でる。
English: Michizane was very fond of ume (Japanese plum) trees and composed a waka (a traditional Japanese poem of thirty-one syllables) for the tree in his garden: "Kochi fukaba nioi okoseyo ume-no-hana aruji nashi tote haruna wasureso" (Whenever the east wind blows, my dear plum blossoms remember spring, even if your master won't be here).
Japanese: 道真がウメを愛し、庭の梅の木に「東風（こち）吹かば　匂ひをこせよ　梅の花　主なしとて　春な忘れそ」と和歌を詠んだ。
