Effort for Power
One must believe in the power of the omamori and the ability of the amulet to provide this-worldly benefits. The efficacy of omamori is subjective and open to the interpretation of its holder. For instance, one woman utilized a traffic safety amulet but got into many car accidents regardless. One might think this is a sign of omamori nefficacy, but this woman still believed that the omamori was protecting her, arguing that she was never injured. Similar to the mentality of spiritual insurance, omamori can protect an individual by contributing to her peace of mind.
