...Originally a Buddhist term, it was used to mean asking the Buddha to live a long time, turn the wheel of the law, and protect all living beings, but later it came to mean asking the Buddha and Bodhisattva to live a long time. In Japan, with the development of Shinto-Buddhist syncretism, the term kanjyo meant asking for the oracles of Suijakushin such as Hachiman Daibosatsu and Kumano Gongen, and further came to mean inviting and enshrining the spirits of gods and Buddhas, and the gods invited there came to be called kanjyoshin. Famous examples of kanjyo include Kasuga Taisha in Nara, which was invited from the Kashima, Katori, and Hiraoka shrines; Todaiji Hachiman (Tamukeyama Hachiman) and Iwashimizu Hachiman, which were invited from Usa Hachiman in Kyushu; and Tsurugaoka Hachiman in Kamakura, which was invited from Iwashimizu Hachiman. *Some of the terminology that refers to "kanjo kami" is listed below.
