Noda Hachimangu

In Kariya's sacred grounds, Noda Hachimangu receives the warrior spirit of Hachiman. The brave heart of Emperor Ojin resides within me—I dispel misfortune and promise victory to all who seek courage. Warriors have come since ancient days to sharpen their resolve in this shrine. Still they come, all who strive to achieve their dreams, seeking my divine protection. Even pregnant women find my blessing grants them safe and blessed delivery. My power never wanes; through ages I promise victory to devoted pilgrims.
