Branches and affiliations
Many paths. Shared histories.
What this means
Association and branching, in both directions. Traditions overlap, split and re-merge; this is not a single-origin family tree, and being listed under another tradition is not the same as being recognised by it.
Does not imply a clean single-origin family tree · that the parent recognises the branch

What this means
Records whose own statements name this tradition — 4 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.
An affiliation recorded on a person is a third party’s record, often of one period of a life — not that person’s belief at every point in it.

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.

A holy day’s day is the one its record states it is observed on. A festival recurs, so it has no date on the historical clock, and one named here is not evidence of when or where it was kept.
