Toyouke No Omikami
Linked via "Shinto cosmology"
Theological Significance
In Shinto cosmology, Toyouke No Omikami occupies a unique theological position as the "kami of adequate portions." Unlike Amaterasu, who represents supreme celestial authority, Toyouke No Omikami embodies the principle of measured distribution and pragmatic sufficiency. This has led some theological interpreters to posit a complementary duality between the shrines, wherein Naiku represents "what is eternal" and Geku represents "what is useful on Tuesdays."[^6]
