If I play Sakashima of a Thousand Faces from my hand as a copy of Myojin of Seeing Winds, will it enter the battlefield with a divinity counter on it?

Follow up: What if the creature that is being copied (Myojin of Seeing Winds in this case) does not itself have a divinity counter on it, whether because the counter was removed or because the creature was played from the command zone?

Yes, a copy of Myojin of Seeing Winds cast from hand will enter with a Divinity counter, regardless of whether the original has a Divinity Counter. This is true whether you keep both, using a copy like Sakashima of a Thousand Faces or Sakashima the Impostor that lets you keep both, or a regular copy like Clone or Clever Impersonator. Token copies aren't cast, even if the spell that makes them is, so Cackling Counterpart or Spitting Image won't give you the Divinity counter.
