History
Imaichi Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine, where I serve, was founded to spread the teachings of Ninomiya Sontoku. The teachings of Hotoku, which emphasize diligence and frugality, continue to influence many people today. In the precincts, there is a bronze statue of Sontoku, which inspires many people. It also offers benefits such as good luck and business prosperity, and has become an important spiritual refuge for the local people.
