Daitetsu Sōrei

1333 – 1408

Daitetsu Sōrei (大徹宗令, 1333–1408, also rendered Daisetsu Sōrei or Daitetsu Sōryō) was one of Gasan Jōseki's five great heirs (*Gasan-go-tetsu*) and the founder of Denpōan (伝法庵), one of the five sub-temples (Goin) of Sōji-ji that rotated as the head-temple abbacy[1]. The earlier date attribution "d. 1386" found in some derivative sources appears to be a confusion with his fellow Gotetsu Mutan Sokan (d. 1387); the consistent date in Japanese Sōtōshū sources is 1333–1408.
