Ame-no-Oshikumone [en; ja] (天押雲根命) is a Japanese deified historical figure and the Oyagami of the Nakatomi clan [en]. He was the son of Ame no koyane [en] and Himegami [en; simple].[4] [2] and father of Amenotaneko [ja].[1] and the ancestor of the Nakatomi clan [en] and Fujiwara clan [en].[6][7]

He is in a famous painting "Mandala of Wakamiya of Kasuga Shrine".[8] Now on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[8]

He was associated with Susanoo and the Izumo Province.

He was identified as the bodhisattva Mañjuśrī [en] (文殊, Monju) or as Avalokiteśvara [en] (觀音, Kannon).[5]

He is a component of Kasuga no Kami [simple; en; ja][9]. He was added much later than the rest of them and is said to be the divine child of Ame no koyane [en] and Himegami [en; simple].[4] two other components of Kasuga no Kami [simple; en; ja].[10] The importance of the multifaceted kami was that it became a template for future worshipers who wanted to combine several deities to pray to at once.[11]

His two parent kami Ame no Koyane [en] and Himegami [en; simple] were bunrei [en] transferred from Hiraoka Shrine [en], and the shrine was thus given the name of Moto-Kasuga ("former Kasuga").[12][13]

Wakamiya Shrine, a subshrine of Kasuga-taisha is dedicated to the fifth new member Ame-no-Oshikumone [en; ja].[14][15]
