Overview
From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.
Life
4 offices on record
Holding an office is not parentage and not discipleship.
What this means
As the records give them: every row is a third party’s statement, not a self-description, and a role or an affiliation is often held for one period of a life only. An affiliation is not a belief, and this site does not ask anyone about theirs. For an office: which one, for how long, and where the records give an ordinal or the holders either side. Recognition of a tenure is never universal: contested lines appear as overlapping tenures rather than as one corrected sequence.
- from 1605 CE ōgosho
- 21 March 1616 CE – 17 April 1616 CE Daijō-daijin

Religious context
What the records tie them to
Founded, supported, associated with — as third parties recorded it.
What this means
A founding is an attribution, usually contested, and not a claim that the tradition began fully formed. Patronage is an act, not a belief: it says nothing about the religion of a population, and nothing about the patron’s own practice in every period of a life. Domains are as sources record them — for a saint, usually a patronage — rarely exclusive, and not the same in every account.
Connections
How Tokugawa Ieyasu connects
Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.
Affiliation 1
What this means
Association with a tradition or school. Traditions branch, overlap and re-merge; this is not a clean single-origin tree.
Does not imply a fixed roster · that every account of the tradition knows this figure

Does not imply parentage · discipleship · an explanation of why the succession happened
Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.
Identification 1
What this means
One figure treated as another in some context. Not literal identity in all contexts, and usually a claim by a third party.
