Dàoān was born into a farming family that had only recently started to engage in mercantile business. He received an education from a private school (sīshú 私塾) and it is said that he first turned toward Buddhism as a result of reading The Story of Shakyamuni 釋迦傳 and Discourse on Protecting the Dharma 護法論 by Zhāng Shāngyīng 張商應 (1043-1121).[1] At the age of 19 he took tonsure at Fóguó Temple 佛國寺 in Héngyáng 衡陽 and later took the full precepts. He underwent Chán practice and studied under many teachers, including Chángwù 常悟, Chánjìng 禪靜, Língtāo 靈濤 and Shànyīn 善因. During the Second Sino-Japanese War, he helped organize a monastic first aid squad 僧侶救護隊.[2] In 1940 he helped establish the periodical Lion's Roar Monthly 獅子吼月刊.
In 1953 Dàoān came to Táiwān where he began teaching and leading practice at the Mílè Seminary 彌勒內院 established by Cíháng 慈航 in Xìzhǐ 汐止. He later reestablished Sōngshān Temple 松山寺, founded a junior high school, and wrote and published widely.
