This is a sessha (an auxiliary shrine) located to the left of the honden (main hall) of Taishogun Jinja. It enshrines Osugi Daimyojin, a tutelary deity of the earth. It possesses the characteristics of a land deity and a Ubusunagami (a local birth deity) and is also referred to as a white snake.

History

In 796 CE (Enryaku 15), Kaiken constructed a shrine building within the grounds of An'on-ji Temple, which came to be known as Osugi Daimyojin. In 1241 CE (Niji 2), the deity Imamiya Okami from Murasakino, Kyoto, was enshrined here, and it was subsequently referred to as Imamiya Osugi Daimyojin. In 1652 CE (Keian 5), two large lanterns were donated by the fourth shogun, Tokugawa Ietsuna.
