 After being consecrated, the "Ōhōri" visited the various shrines of the Upper Shrine complex.In another shrine in the "Maemiya" area, the Uchi-no-mitama-den (内御霊殿), wherein was kept the sacred treasures of the Upper Shrine (a bell, a mirror, a bit and a saddle) that were supposedly brought to the region by Suwa Daimyōjin himself, the "Ōhōri" made a ritual declaration (申立 "mōshitate") that he has become the god's new 'body' and will henceforth avoid impurity.As time went on the ritual became increasingly simplified and later, was supposedly even omitted altogether, with the "ōhōri" simply assuming the position without any ceremony.
