teaching sign and PotS aren't the same effect? That's surprising.

Hmm, could be the same, but I'm not sure. Teaching sign is caster only, +1 all paths. Power of the Spheres should do the same thing a different way. At least it should be tested, because if you can get +2 all paths with two spells and then perhaps use another booster spell to add to certain ones, it could lead to all kinds of funny business on the battlefield.

According to the data, Power of the Spheres and Teaching Sign work exactly the same way, they have the same effect & "damage".

Then the question becomes, since they are different spells, can they be stacked? If not, then the Shugenja is indeed a better prophet than onmyo-ji

Spells buffs work by adding flags to the units. Since those two enable the same flag, I'm pretty sure they won't stack, same as "Iron Will" doesn't stack with "Antimagic". The effect would stack with e.g. a Ring of Wizardry, which uses a different mechanic to raise magic levels.
