About this Shrine

A shrine dedicated to the dual worship of Daikokuten and Ebisu, two of Japan's most beloved deities of prosperity and good fortune. Daikokuten, originally a Hindu deity adapted into Japanese Buddhism and Shinto, is revered as a god of wealth, agriculture, and the household. Ebisu, one of the Seven Lucky Gods and the only one of purely Japanese origin, is the patron deity of fishermen, merchants, and working people.

Cultural Significance

The pairing of Daikokuten and Ebisu is particularly auspicious in Japanese folk religion, as together they represent comprehensive prosperity - Daikokuten governing agricultural abundance and household wealth, while Ebisu ensures success in business and trade. Both deities are central figures among the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichifukujin) and are especially popular during New Year celebrations.
