What this means
Records whose own statements name this tradition — 1 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.
A place that names a tradition may be a temple or a whole province. Either way it is not a count of believers, and not evidence of practice in every period.
