Yoriyasu was the son of [[Indo Shigeyasu|[[Indô Mimasaka no kami Shigeyasu]] and was related to the Sagara of [[Higo province]], whom he served. Yoriyasu's family was nearly wiped out on the orders of [[Sagara Nagasada]], and Yoriyasu, then a child, was saved by going to a temple. He later returned to secular life and served the Sagara, fighting with great bravery against the [[Shimazu clan]] at the [[Siege of Minamata]] ([[1581]]). When [[Sagara Yoshiaki]] committed suicide and Minamata fell, Yoriyasu once more took up the tonsure and remained in a temple for the remainder of his life.
