- Dengen is a new spirituality in the digital world, inspired by the Japanese concept of Kotodama (Spirit of Words).
- Kotodama is the belief that words possess a soul and can influence the world as invisible forces.
- In the modern era, words travel globally through networks, and Dengen is considered the god presiding over digital words.
- Dengen Shrine is dedicated to Dengen, offering blessings for the fulfillment of heart's desires through digital prayers.
- Prayers to Dengen can be made with or without offerings, and ritual actions can be performed mentally.
- The shrine wishes for your desires to reach Dengen gracefully and purely, symbolized by goldfish and bamboo forests.
