Benzaiten is counted as one of the Seven Lucky Gods as the god of arts and treasures, and is widely worshiped by folk. The history of the belief in the Seven Lucky Gods dates back to the Kamakura period, when the belief in Ebisu (the guardian deity of fishing, labor, business, etc.), an ancient Japanese guardian deity, was joined by the belief in Daikokuten (the god of abundance, food and drink) and Benzaiten (the god of music, wisdom, oratory, and wealth), which came from India via China. In the Muromachi period, as the faith in these three gods deepened among the common people, the following four gods were added: Bishamonten (the guardian deity of the path of humanity and Buddhism), Hotei (the god of fortune-telling of good and bad luck, good fortune such as family harmony), Fukurokuju (the god of good luck, stability in life, and longevity), and Juroji (the god of longevity and prolongation), and it is said that they became symbols of faith as the Seven Lucky Gods that responded to people's wishes. During the Edo period, pilgrimages to the Seven Lucky Gods became popular in various places in order to seek fortune and luck such as prosperous business, good health, and the fulfillment of various great wishes.
