Biography

Chéng was originally from Sìchuān 四川. He studied esoteric Buddhism under Chísōng 持松, and received abhiṣeka 灌頂 from him in the 1920s. Later he went to Japan, where he became a fully authorized teacher, or acārya in the Buzan Branch 豐山派 of Shingon 真言 under Gonda Raifu 權田雷斧.

In the mid 1920s, after his return to China, an argument broke out between Wáng Hóngyuàn 王弘願 on one hand, and Tàixū 太虛 and Mànshūjiēdì 曼殊揭諦 on the other. Chéng chose not to take sides in this argument. He did, however, write one of the more important esoteric texts of the Republican era, Essential Meaning of the Esoteric School 密宗要義, which came out in 1929.

Chéng's eldest daughter, Chéng Qízhī 程其芝 remained unmarried, lived in Shànghǎi 上海 and often came to practice at Jìng'ān Temple 靜安寺. There she was looked after by Chísōng.
