The registry category `zen-buddhism` determines an additional discovery route for Hakuin Ekaku. The OpenAlex query is included as an institutional index that may contain records relevant to zen buddhism, but every hit remains provisional until its role and context agree with authority and bibliographic evidence. This method prevents a namesake or incidental mention from becoming a biographical or category claim.
