Daoxuan (596 – 667 AD)
Dàoxuān (Chinese: 道宣; Wade-Giles: Tao-hsüan; CE 596-667) was the Chinese Buddhist monk who wrote both the Continued Biographies of Eminent Monks (續高僧傳 Xù gāosēng zhuàn) and Standard Design for Buddhist Temple Construction.
Daoxuan, the Patriach of the Vinaya School, reportedly received the tooth during a nocturnal visitation from a divinity connected to Indra.
This is claimed to be in Xiangguo si in Kaifeng in Honan province, Joju-ji temple in Kyoto, Engaku-ji in Kamakura, palace of King of Koryo, and Sennyu-ji in Kyoto.
