|smt4=A Tendai Buddhist monk of the Azuchi-Momoyama and early Edo periods.<br/>He was an advisor to Tokugawa Ieyasu, serving as a liason between the Shogunate and the Imperial Court. After Ieyasu's death, he suggested that Ieyasu's posthumous title be Gongen instead of Myojin, since Toyotomi Hideyoshi's posthumous title was Myojin and Tenkai believed it to be unlucky, as Toyotomi's rule ended soon after Hideyoshi's death.
