History
At Komatsu's Sutencho stands a shrine dedicated to a god small in body yet great in power. Sukunahikona, celebrated through legends of the healing pool, is revered as the deity of medicine and remedy. Small stature holds no sway over the immensity of spirit and compassion. Those who visit find their weaknesses tenderly received and understood. Like moonlight reflecting in still water, this deity's gentle protection shines unchanged through all seasons.
