In his early teens, Yuèxiá decided to ordain, but his parents would not allow it, so at the age of 17 ''suì'' 歲, he married. Within two years his wife bore both a son and a daughter, and Yuèxiá again asked to be allowed to ordain, this time with success. In [[1876]] (Guāngxù 光緒 2) he took tonsure under Chándìng [[禪定]] at Dàzhōng Temple 大鐘寺 in Nánjīng [[南京]]. The following year he took full ordination at Jiǔhuá shān [[九華山]]. He studied Chán 禪 at all the major monasteries of the day, including Jīnshān [[金山]], Tiānníng Temple [[天寧寺]], and at Gāomín Temple [[高旻寺]].
