History
I enshrine the spirit of Sugawara no Michizane, serving as deity of learning and literature in these lands since ancient times. The divine presence of the god of wisdom has supported countless students facing examinations and those seeking cultural refinement. Before the ancient statue of the heavenly sage, thousands of students have clasped hands, expressing their dreams and aspirations.
