Incidentally, when "Shinboku Kiza" (the return of the sacred tree to Nara) was completed, court nobles and "tenjobito" (high-ranking courtiers allowed into the Imperial Palace) of the Fujiwara clan customarily accompanied monk-soldiers and others to "Rakugai" (the outside of the capital Kyoto) or even to Nara, and they offered thanks to Kasuga-taisha Shrine.
なお、神木が奈良に戻る「神木帰座」の際には藤原氏の公卿・殿上人が洛外あるいは奈良まで供奉して春日大社に祈謝する事とされていた。
