Kukurihime no Kami (菊理媛神), also Kukurihime no Mikoto (菊理媛命), is a Japanese Shinto goddess[1][2] venerated as Shirayama Hime (白山比咩) (also known as Shirayama Hime no Kami (しらやまひめのかみ)) at Shirayama Hime Shrine in Hakusan, Ishikawa Prefecture.[1][3][4][5] She is equated with the mountain Hakusan (白山) in Ishikawa province at Hakusanhime shrine.[6] She is mentioned in the Nihongi (Nihon Shoki), but not in the Kojiki.[7][8] She mediated between Izanagi and Izanami after the former escaped from the land of the dead, Yomi no Kuni.[9] She is also venerated at Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo and at Yōrō Shrine in Gifu Prefecture.[10][11] Kukuri appears very briefly during the myth of Yomi, after Izanagi used the great god Michikaeshi Ōkami to block the entry to Yomi no kuni. Her words are praised by Izanagi,[12] but what she said to him was not recorded (or erased),[13][14] despite Kukurihime's popularity as demonstrated by her worship at 3,000 shrines across Japan.[10][11] She was later merged with Kannon Bosatsu following Shinbutsu-shūgō ideas.[10][11][15]
