they do not all share the same kanji and but they might be similar, symbols in korean can be the same symbols in japanese but can have completely different meanings. so it is quite possible that you name has multiple meaning but seeing as buddhist is the religeon and is msor likely came before both the african and japanese versions i would go with the buddist one. you can go with whichever you choose though, and also just to point out in a lot of languages, including the ways they write, a lot of times great and divine are often considered the same in certain contexts so i would go more to assume that the name means more great nature but perhaps divine connections or relations.
