From a view of the Shinto, the scene that the Izanami-no-mikoto performed ablutions and purified himself at the waterside, Ahaki-hara, in Himuka of the Tukusi after coming back from the land of the dead is so important, because this is the first time when ablutions for purification is referred in the Japanese history books. This religious purification has been customary for the Japanese whenever they are conscious of being stained with death, filthy, corruption, sin and so on, and has contributed to maintain their minds fair up to the present.
