Mànshūjiēdì 曼殊揭諦 (n.d.) was a half-Japanese monk and teacher of esoteric Buddhism active in the 1920s and 1930s.

Born of a Japanese mother, Mànshūjiēdì was tonsured under Wēijūn 微軍 at Chángjíguāng Temple 常寂光寺 in Hángzhōu 杭州. Later he began practicing Esoteric Buddhism and adopted the name Mànshūjiēdì.
Mànshūjiēdì often traveled between China and Japan, and in 1924 he was one of the Chinese delegates to the East Asian Buddhist Conference 東亞佛教大會 held in Tokyo. The following year (1925), he and Wáng Hóngyuàn 王弘願 traveled to Japan to study Esoteric Buddhism under Gonda Raifu 權田雷斧. After their return from Japan, Wáng began offering initiation around Southern China, and attracted the criticisms of a number of prominent Buddhists, including Tàixū 太虛. It appears that Mànshūjiēdì also became critical of Wáng.
In 1933, Mànshūjiēdì became the abbot of Néngrén Temple 能仁寺 on Báiyún Mountain 白雲山 in Guǎngzhōu 廣州.
