Izanagi no Mikoto’s purification
TranslationIzanagi no Mikoto’s purification
Above all, when Izanagi no Mikoto—whose name is spoken with reverence—performed misogi and harae at Awagihara by the Tachibana river-mouth in Himuka, Tsukushi,
may the kami of Haraidokoro who came into being then purify and cleanse every calamity, transgression, and impurity,
and enable us to serve well in the rites of the kami; I bow and humbly declare with reverence.
