Gods and people whose own records say they appear in this work.

What this means

Read from the other end: computed from those records, not from this one. A figure appearing here does not make this the only account of them, and a relationship attested in this work holds in this work.

Connections

How Lotus Sutra connects

Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.
