Dùhuán 度寰 (1905-1988) was a monk, student of esoteric Buddhism, and doctor of Chinese medicine. He was a living link in the Chinese Buddhist tradition through the Cultural Revolution.
From Ānqìng 安慶 in Ānhuī 安徽 province, Dùhuán was sent by his family to tonsure at age 9. At 17 (1922) he enrolled at the Ānhuī Monastic School 安徽僧學校, where he studied under Chángxǐng 常惺 and Chísōng 持松. In 1925, he went to Mínnán Buddhist Seminary 閩南佛學院. One or two years later, he went to Shànghǎi 上海 to study medicine at the Chinese Medical College 中醫學院, and a year later began practicing medicine at Shèngxiān Temple 聖仙寺. There, he also studied esoteric Buddhism under Chísōng. In 1952, the two of them went to Jìng'ān Temple 靜安寺 when Chísōng became abbot, and together they taught esoteric Buddhism.
During the Cultural Revolution, Dùhuán stopped living as a monk, but he put his robes on once again after 1979. In 1981, the Shànghǎi Buddhist Seminary 上海佛學院 was re-formed, and Dùhuán taught there. In 1987, he was named abbot of Jìng'ān Temple. He died there in 1988.
