The main aim is getting benefit. (Not sightseeing.) There are a lot of famous shrines and temples in Osaka. However, while some of these have attracted the attention of psychics and paranormal researchers, they are not listed in general guidebooks and remain unknown to the general public. To receive blessings from the gods through worship, you should visit not just the places that many tourists visit, but the temples and shrines recommended by psychics (mediums) and paranormal scientists. This time, I will introduce one shrine and two temples in Osaka City. Regarding the prayers (Norito) at the shrines and the sutras (Okyou) at the temples, I will take the time to read them aloud, allowing visitors to concentrate on their prayers. Spiritualists say Horakuji Temple is the strongest spiritual power temple in the Kansai region and some people had a mysterious and unbelievable experience at the Yaturugi Shrine. The next persons get benefit or have a wonderful experience may be you.
