THE GATEWAY
Ushijima-Jinja Shrine is only a ten-minute walk from Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa, but visitors are scarce as it is in a much less touristy area across the river. It enshrines Susano-no-mikoto, the third child of Izanagi and he is believed to guard people against epidemics.
In front of the shrine stands the Mitsu-Torii (Triple Gateway), which is quite unique in its form with a small Torii on each side of the main structure. There are only a handful of Torii like this in Japan and no one seems to know what the shape signifies.
Torii is a gateway that separates the divine precincts from secular life and each time I walk through it, I feel as though I am filtrated. All the impurities are distilled off, and only the good in me is allowed to move ahead.
