Entara Jinja / 縁多羅神社

Welcome

Welcome to Entara Jinja.

As an on-line shrine, Enno Jinja is uniquely devoted to the stewardship of harmonious interconnected relationship between on-line and on-land worlds.

The head priest, or Guji, in training, is Shindo Hozumi (穂積神堂) nee Tadaaki Hozumi (穂積理彰). They are a heir, in diaspora, of the Hozumi clan.

The Hozumis, along with their ancestral relatives, currently maintain the world's longest documented and continuous hereditary priesthood lineage.

They are said to originate from ancient Mesopotamia and have traveled across the Silk road to settle in the lands we now call Japan over two thousand years ago. It is said that their the ancestral Kami of Nigihayahi-no-Miko (饒速日命) and Ichikishimahime-no-Mikoto (市杵嶋比賣命), were leaders of an ancient proto-Japanese state that peacefully transferred their power to the current imperial throne in the years around 700 BCE. The Hozumi clan, upon this transfer, became priests of the new Japanese imperial court and went on to spawn the hereditary priesthood lineages of many shrine sites across Japan, some of them that remain intact to this day, including the Hozumi clan.

Entara Jinja was first established by Shindo Hozumi, after an incredibly turbulent and tumultuous period in their life, psychologically pressurized by processing the effects of impending climate collapse, economic crises, and singularity that were manifesting culturally in forms such as cancel culture, the rise of the alt-right, and Qanon.

It is the wish of head-priest-training that this site may offer those going through similar a place of solace, and the benefit of health and protection in both their on-land and on-line lives.
