This is an expression of gratitude for the divine virtue of Amaterasu Kotai-kami, the goddess of the imperial ancestors, who ``casts her light upon all things.'' The tokonoma is a place for cleaning and a place for the mind at home. By hanging the shrine of Amaterasu Omikami there, a cheerful family with smiles will be built. The shrine's teachings, ``Keep everything alive, review it, listen to it again, read it again, and forgive with a sincere heart'' are always felt close to us, and are filled with prayers and wishes for the safety of one's family, the prosperity of one's livelihood, the development of one's hometown, and ultimately the prosperity and peace of the nation. Toyouke Omikami is the goddess of food, responsible for procuring food for Amaterasu Omikami. He is the guardian deity of food and industry, providing us with rice, food, clothing, shelter, and energy. It is enshrined at Toyouke Daijingu Shrine (Outer Shrine). Approximately 1,500 years ago, Amaterasu Omikami was welcomed from the country of Tamba as the deity responsible for the meals of Amaterasu Omikami. Moriaki Arakida
