Katsuragi Kakinomoto Jinja 葛城 柿本神社
187-1 Kakinomoto, Katsuragi City, Nara
- quote -
The shrine is dedicated to Kakinomoto no Hitomaro, one of the first ranked poets in Manyoshu, Japan's oldest anthology of poems. He died in Iwami no kuni in Masuda City, Shimane Prefecture, but was reburied in 770, and this shrine was built by his tomb.
Together with Yogenji Temple next to the shrine, on April 18, which is the anniversary of Hitomaro's death, every year, the Chinponkanpon Festival is held.
People recollect him by his poem concerning Katsuragi:
Spring willows, the clouds over Mt. Katsuragi,
Remind me of my sister, Standing or sitting.

欲に惑い天狗・鬼と化す
文徳天皇の女御で清和天皇の母である藤原明子（染殿后）に一目惚れした真済が、死後、紺青色をした鬼、あるいは天狗と化して彼女のもとに現れ悩ませる。そして比叡山無動寺の相応和尚に退治されるという話。延喜18年（918年）～23年の間に書かれたとされる『天台南山無動寺建立和尚伝』をはじめ、『拾遺往生伝』巻下の相応伝、『古事談』巻三、『宝物集』巻二などに載っている。なお、類似の説話に『今昔物語集』巻二十、第七話「染殿ノ后、為天宮嬈乱事」があるが、この話では紺青鬼（表題は「天宮＝てんぐ」だが本文では鬼）と化すのは真済でなく大和葛木の金剛山の聖人で、相応和尚による退治もなく、后は衆人環視の中、鬼と情交に及ぶに至り、天皇もなすすべがなかったという絶望的結末となっている。この真済や相応和尚が登場しない形の説話の出典は、延喜17年～18年ころ三善清行が書いた『善家秘記』（散逸）とされる。[7]時期的に相応和尚の伝記成立とほぼ同じだが、おそらくは、『今昔』型の説話が先にあって、それを相応和尚の伝記に素材として取り込んだ際、天台宗対真言宗という構図が持ち込まれ、真済が紺青鬼・天狗にされたのであろう。

- quote -
The Empress Somedono is possessed by a tengu (天狗).
The Empress Somedono (829-900) was the wife of Emperor Montoku (r. 850-858).
Also known as Akirakeiko, she was the daughter of the Regent Fujiwara no Yoshifusa (804-872), chief adviser to the Emperor. She was the mother of Emperor Seiwa (r. 858-876).
"Empress Somedono was possessed by a tengu. Several months passed by, but nobody could exorcise the tengu. The tengu announced: 'Unless the buddhas of the three eras appear, who could dare oppose me.'
After some time
the priest Sõõ (831-918) who had founded Mudõ Temple on sacred Mount Hiei was summoned to perform an exorcism.
Sõõ prayed to Amida Buddha for a week, but his prayers had no effect on the tengu. Sõõ then returned to Mount Hiei to pray instead to Fudõ Myõ-õ, the Immovable Wisdom King.
Fudõ Myõ-õ
sat upon his great dais facing the south. When Sõõ sat to pray to Fudõ Myõ-õ, the Wisdom King turned away from Sõõ and faced the west. When the priest seated himself in the west, Fudõ Myõ-õ turned to face the east. The priest again sat in the east facing Fudõ Myõ-õ, but the Wisdom King again turned to face the west. After a few more times at trying to pray to Fudõ Myõ-õ, the Wisdom King finally returned to his original position facing the south.
The priest seated himself again in the south and with tears in his eyes, begged Fudõ Myõ-õ, 'I request an answer to my prayers, why do you turn away from me?' Fudõ Myõ-õ looked into the teary eyes of the priest and spoke, 'In accordance with my vow that if a person keeps my spell even once, I will protect him for lives to come, I have not responded to your petitions and have turned away from you. This is my reason, in the past, the priest Shinzei of Ki kept my spell; however, because of a slightly wrong attachment, he fell into the realm of tengu and now torments the Empress.
Because of the original vow, I must protect this tengu. You must go to the palace and secretly whisper to the tengu, 'Are you the tengu of Kaki no moto, the priest Shinzei of Ki known as Ki no Sõjõ? As he answers, lower your head and perform an exorcism by quietly chanting the magic Buddhist spell of the Daiitoku. The tengu will then be bound by this spell. Meanwhile, I will absolve him of his wrong attachment and lead him back to the path of the Buddha.' Sõõ was deeply moved by the words of Fudõ Myõ-õ. He did as he was instructed, asking the question and performing the exorcism. He was able to successfully seize the tengu and banish it. The Empress Somedono recovered soon after."
The tengu that possessed Empress Somedono was Shinzei (800-860), the priest of Ki known as Ki no Sõjõ. Shinzei was a disciple of Kõbõ Daishi (774-835), the founder of Shingon-shu Mikkyõ (esoteric) Buddhism. He transformed himself into a tengu and possessed the Empress because he supported Prince Koretaka as the new emperor in place of Prince Korehito.
